The shotgun is now as accurate as my grandmas memory

[Mehrunes]

Bump for justice

[Paratrooper]

I've recently tried it myself, and I could barely get anyone five blocks away from me, seriously. At least increase the fire rate..

[DarkDXZ]

In 0.70, I was quite pro at using shotgun - it was excellent OHKO at close range and decent and medium range.
Now it's useless even a few blocks away.

I mean, just a few minutes ago, a guy tried to shoot me, he stood literally 3 blocks in front of me, and he still didn't kill me after two shots.

Seriously, Ben, what the fu-?

Rifle is also quite bad now, I mean - I can shoot that guy over there 4 timess in a row into a head, and he is still alive, and I turn up dead, because of SMG.


Come on, Ben! SMG isn't supposed to be dominating weapon!

I am not moaning about it, but simply stating a fact when I say the Shotgun is so underpowered now compared to the other two, it is almost useless as an addition to the weapon set of Ace of Spades.
It needs to be improved, especially in accuracy, at least a tad bit better.

EDIT: I still find the Rifle a pretty handy weapon, however it's accuracy is weird, even when you directly hit someone in the head at times, it seems to miss. About the SMG, I feel the recoil is lower now, why is that? (Correct me if I'm wrong with the SMG, as I don't use it much)

SMG isn't supposed to be dominating weapon!

None of the weapons should be dominating, but in this release, it slightly seems all confused. Let me elaborate.

- SMG: It is currently the best in close range (Due to shotgun problem), is good in mid-range and improved at long range due to reduced recoil (?)

- Rifle: Even at hittable range, it seems to miss headshots now, even when your firing the first shot, and I think it should only have more recoil between shots so you cannot instantly kill if you miss the first time, not messed up range accuracy. So the rifle jerks upwards upon discharge. Seems a bit desync, if you know what I mean, like due to lagg.

- Shotgun: This poor sod has no clue what he is made for anymore, he is utterly useless in mid-range now, and in close range he is kissing the ass of SMG, almost to the point where it's existance can be questioned.

But really. As for this update, I could safely say that shotguns are for bosses.

This is the new shotgun.

Summary: Damage from the shotgun is very random.

Summary: Damage from the shotgun is very random.

Emphases on the random aspect. I somehow just killed two people in one shot (both at full hp) on the arena server, yet still find myself unable to one hit people right in front of me. so yes, This weapon is capable of hitting up to 50 trillion health points! You hit a 1.
