The shotguns seem very overpowered and the sniper rifles just the opposite. You can get killed with a one shot shotgun blast from 20 yards. With a sniper rifle however, it's almost like you're shooting rubber bullets. Any hit with a .50 cal should be a one shot kill, but it's not. I wouldn't even post this if I didn't also hear a few members make similar statements. Maybe this is a known issue and that's how you guys want the server, and if so that's fine. Just wanted to bring it up for discussion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just add Stopping Power. And just aim anywhere above the waistline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IF YOU DO use a sniper rifle...there is a way to make them more accurate.. Hold breath for 2 ticks... then shoot... i know its a pain but its bout the only way ur accuracy will kill them with 1 shot another way u can do it if u quick scope like me alot.. go into console and type /+holdbreath this will cause everytime u bring your scope up for it to automaticly hold your breath for you and in doing so.. by the time your actually looking thru ur scope.. 2 ticks have gone by and u can shoot with great accuracy... hope it helps.. any more tips ya need just let me know... ill hack ur brain to death Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But are we sure about this shotgun thing? I can understand bird hunting at 30 yards with some bird shot, but in a tactical/war scenario? You spray someone with bird shot at 30 yards all you're gonna do is piss them off. Then again, use some buck shot at 30 yards, it seems that the accuracy should go way down, and even if you did hit, it should not be a killshot. At thirty yards the spread is going to be pretty wide.

THATS IT!.. #4 at more than around 10 yards you have to shoot 3-4 shots and every single one of them hit the person to kill them UNLESS they are almost dead already.. the actuall dmg the shotgun does in ft2 and mw2 and FT1 is roughly about 30 hp per hit at 20 - 30 yards... so tell me how is that overpowered when 90% of the server runs around with a RPD that shoots like a sniper rifle.. does not have hardly any recoil.. and has a 100 round clip? personally i think some people are just mad about dying so much by shotties up close and personal:D im glad i started the shotty trend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never seen anyone with a 30 yard shottie kill. The most distance i have been killed by shottie is 15.4 yards one shot but i was already 3 quarters dead (like Jack said). Funny thing is that people say " oh well in real life this or that wouldnt happen, well it aint real life, most the time the game is as good as you can get it with mods etc also in the mix. People dont go running thru a building leap out the window 2 stories high shoot someone on way down, survive the landing, bounce the next corner 4 ft in the air with full kit and weapon, make another kill.....get my drift? Not everything in the game will be perfect, but if you stick at the weapon that is giving u greif then u may adapt to its flaws. I myself dont think that the shottie needs adjusting, a 15 ft shot from a tatical shotgun will own u real/game life, the snipers well it would be nice to tweak em a bit but then is it too advantageous? In game you dont have to worry about wind, bullet drop or any other variable so missing a few shots here and there is a fair exchange for not having to deal with "real life variables". Imagine if wind and bullet drop were on the game u would be still missing shots. CONCLUSION: Listen to Jack he knows what hes talking about his game tips will help you and dont get to caught up in comparing game play to "real life situations".

With the shottie u have to be up close and personal with your target, u cant just spray em from across the map or down the end of the hall way like most other weapons as you dont have the range, THIS IS A DISADVANTAGE. With the shottie you dont have 30+ bullets in a clip to kill an enemy you have only 4 shots at a time. THIS IS A DISADVANTAGE. With the shottie your fire rate is slow, you cant get double tap etc. THIS ALSO IS A DISADVANTAGE. With the shottie unless your target is near dead already you have to be within 10yards for a one shot kill,and most the time its a head shot or you have to shoot twice.. ANOTHER DISADVANTAGE. THERE IS MORE BUT.... THE POINT IS AND WHY IM YELLING IS THAT THERE IS FAR MORE DISSADVANTAGE TO USING A SHOTTIE THAN ADVANTAGES, YOU SEE??? REALLY WHEN U THINK ABOUT IT A PLAYER WITH A SHOTTIE HAS LESS ADVANTAGE OVERALL THAN A PLAYER WITH ANY OTHER WEAPON PLAIN AND SIMPLE. Ok ill stop yelling now but u see what i mean right? You think the shotties over powered and yet anyone not using one has more advantages over someone that is using one, so really is there much to worry bout?

MY POINT IS I USE THE SAME SETTINGS ON MY SHOTTY ON OUR SERVER AND YET I DONT GET THE SAME RESULTS ON THEIRS. I HAVE NEVER SAID ANYTHING ABOUT THE DISADVANTAGES.

ALSO the range in other servers on the shotgun is believe it or not around the same.. most servers have around a 20 -21 yard range for shotguns.. now as far as you say they are overpowered.. what your not realizing .. is they actually were turned down ALOT and you can ask rugger.. i pitched a bitch about it when it happened. but ive gotten used to them now.... thing is.. why complain about someone that uses a shotgun.. or the shotgun in general.. when the person has to get so close to you.. and is very very very limited on the ammount of shots they have.... when there are so many more guns you can complain about like the p90.. or RPD... or the SAW.. that are over powered... hell the RPD u can snipe people with better than a G3 or a sniper rifle.. and do it semi auto!

But I have had shots that have went outside that range. And I am stating a fact that I know as well...I have went to 2 diff clan servers and played there and the shotty is not that powerful. It is very powerful up close, I as the reading will show, have not ever said it wasnt. I am for the most really dont give a fuck what gun is what and how its done. Which it is fine with me, it makes the game more challenging and I will break mine out some just to goof off and try to work with it. BUT ONCE AGAIN AND I WILL TYPE THIS PLAIN AND STRAIGHT FORWARD AND IN ENGLISH....WHAT I AM STATING IS I AM TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHY THE SHOTGUN IS THAT POWERFUL (NOT SO MUCH IN THE SENSE OF THE WORD) BUT WHEN I VISIT OTHER SERVERS, U HAVE TO BE RIGHT ON THAT PERSON TO KILL THEM WITH A SHOTTY....THERE IS NO RANGE WITH IT. K...I think that is in about plain english as I can get. I am wondering for my own knowing, what i need or can do to make it work to that benefit on other servers. Very simple and easy explained, I think. Not arguing or anything, just a few answers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
