Hey devs please make the shotgun good again

The double barrel shotgun’s have about as much effectiveness as an infant with an AK47 please just just make them good again like they were before that random nerf 6+ months ago.

Decrease the spread and increase the range then make them available too all classes as they are not very fitting for the assaulter class. Because to be honest what’s the point in taking a shotgun when you can take an extra magazine or grenade when they are so useless.

seems not to help a lot even if the buffs look on paper real good.

i know right >w>

I really don’t know why they did not just revert them completely

Your probably right.

An infant with an AK can still be randomly deadly beyond 6 meters, automatically making him better than a shotgun in enlisted

Admittedly I never used the pre nerf shotguns, but their paper stats sound like they were utterly abusrd, and I find the current ones to be… fine? They are at least modestly effective at 10-15 meters, and reliably instakill closer than that. They work great for sweeping buildings if there isn’t so many enemies that the only way to deal with them is an absolute bullet hose, and they outperform many smgs in that specific, very close quarters use case, since even the best smgs have slightly longer time to kill and will lose if the shotgun user starts firing at the same time as the smg user.

Also, I don’t see why shotguns would not be classed as assault weapons. They serve the same primary purpose as smgs: Closer range, reasonably handy weapons that can cause a lot of damage quickly without needing all that much precision. Great for sweeping buildings, rushing enemies in cover, and other such things.

In paper they looked absurd, in practice they were realistic, you where able to engage targets at 50meter without praying to RNGsus, and they remain effective up to 70-80 meters. But they where a less reliable at those distances.

Just like shotguns should be. Right now shotguns are pointless and out classed at every range by even second line bolt action rifles. Which automatically makes them a waste of a weapon slot.

No one in their right mind thought that shotguns where particularly strong before the great nerf, and shotguns disappeared from all matches afterwards.

In fact hearing a shotgun fire is sort of a give away that there is a free kill nearby.

Honestly the shotgun nerf was a mistake and it needs to be removed entirely.

is that possible with 18 gauge since that what the shotguns are firing in enlisted

M30 Drilling is 12 gauge.

not in this game as they all shoot 18 pellets making them 18 gauge

Gauge is a measure of the shell size, not the amount of pellets that it contains.
So it is 12 gauge and it is using 00 buckshot
