What’s your preference? Personally I prefer the trusty ol’ shotgun. Sometimes the scattershot lets me down, not killing when I feel it should, although it has got me out of some sticky situations. My friend who I play with most of the time prefers the scattershot, what do you think?
I don’t know, shotgun seems more powerful and unloads individual rounds much faster - I think.
The classic ol’ Shotgun. But at the same time I’ll take the trusty bunker busting side arm any day over anything else.
I think so too but I’m sure there are people out there that disagree. Not sure about rate of fire, may test it if I’m bored one day

I would take it over the scattershot but not old faithful
I prefer the Shotgun, but I get the Scattershot a lot more since it spawns on the maps.
UNSC Shotty. The Scattershot is so -Yoink!- inconsistant and luck based. It may take three shots to kill a guy at 5 feet, but 1 shot to kill a guy at 15 feet.

Pretty much why I pick the Shotgun over the Lotteryshot. Consistency.
I pick the boltshot.
It’s a love-hate thing for me with the scattershot. Sometimes I shoot it and think “HELL YEAH! THIS WEAPON IS BEAST!!” But then when i actually shoot someone, it doesn’t feel like i killed them. With the shotty, I can instantly tell wether or not it killed someone.
Scattershot is inconsistent, so I have to go with the Shotgun.
The shotgun r*pes *ss and the scattershot is extremely inconsistent.
I prefer the Scattershot. It’s the first Power-Weapon commendation that I completed. A few reasons why is that it can incinerate players, SAVE THE TREES! And that the Scattershot has a faster rate-of-fire. Plus, it has a bit more range than the Shottie.
UNSC shotgun hands down. The Scattershot is pretty inconsistant. I mean its a cool looking weapon, and it has a longer range but to me it doesn’t do its job as well as the UNSC shotgun does.
Shotgun all day… I love it!!! The only map that I don’t mind picking up the Scattershot is Haven.
I’m glad I’m not the only one suffering with scattershot inconsistency! Seems like the majority are happier carrying a shotgun so far.
The only thing I like about the scattershot is that it shoots faster.
Shotgun all the way I think it’s perfect in Halo 4 but the Scattershot is way too inconsistent.
Boltshot
Side note: I don’t really like shotguns as they seem underpowered compared to every other power weapon, however, if it is 1v1; CQC; and you are the only one with a power weapon (shotgun), then you can dominate.

UNSC shotgun seems to be a close range, brute force killer while the scattershot has more reach and will strip shields in a heart beat. Making the scattershot a much more effective weapon.
I prefer the shotgun. It works the best in laggy matches. Thats pretty consistent in Halo 4. The lag that is.
