Right, but for assaulter to have secondary weapon means to drop an option of large ammo pouch and as this choice is class-wide, it is hardly worth it.
duh it a shotgun it sucked so it should suck in game
why the smg outclassed it so why shouldnt it suck having a shotgun in ww2 was a death sentence
Well, so you confirm that there is at least one whole class of useless assets in the game progression and believe it is how that should be. I see no reason to argue with this logic.
the fact u want a shotgun to be compared to an smg is crazy they sucked in real life why would you use it
Why to add to game progression something that can only be used instead of SMG then, being by design inferior to it when in reality it had other uses. For instance, it is generally not inferior to bolt action rifles, just not in the same situation.
its a filler level kinda like a participation trophy good job you hit level such and such
OK, with this approach devs can put any irrelevant and inferior things and we should be happy about it. I think though that shotguns do not have to be inferior and irrelevant and it could and should be fixed many ways people mentioned. Like not limiting them to assaulters to start with.
but why thou u want a useless weapon when u could have extra ammo for a good gun?
the extra ammo alone is gold why take a useless weapon why shoot yourself in the foot like that
I am not sure what you mean here. For assaulters, as I just wrote, it is not worth it. For radioman it is not, because he has no other options. For sniper it may be very good option for close combat situations. He does not need a lot of ammo. For rifles it can be both second optional weapon especially until selective/auto fire weapons or first weapon for a part of the squad.
Does this answer your question?
ammo for everyone i cant believe your not getting this no need for useless second gun
Yeah, thank you. Please pass extra ammo to radioman.
they dont need it
OK, guess I am done arguing with you. My radioman, which I use in every squad could use a shotgun, yours does not need it.
It is better for you to have garbage weapon than give an option to improve it or use by classes where it is not a garbage. So you are happy with what we have.
Why not? Just don’t try to convince others that they should also be happy about that.
I’d rather have good shotgun for assaulters than shit shotgun for all soldiers.
this is your opinion but ok if you have trouble with the starting weapon you should at yourself cause there easy to use if you can’t use them right this kinda sound like l2p a bit
That’s a good option as well. Shotgun, which appears after initial SMGs should at the very least be not worse in all aspects than initial SMGs. Then again, why not allow it to classes which appear after that and where it is logical to use.
I’d rather have them limited to assaulters. The only reason this class exists is to be CQC master. Shotguns fit exactly this role.
A. Your are wrong, shotguns have managed to stay in service up to this day, they are versatile weapons that perform extremely well in urban environments, and have an effective range similar to the one of pre nerf shotguns on this game, around 90m, they also have great utility as breach tools.
B. Gin real life shotguns where so brutally effective, the Germans complained that it was an inhumane weapon in WW1.
