Yeah, great idea 343, “Let’s put in shotguns as secondary weapon in Team SNIPERS”
Does it work out? NO! As people start camping around corners with shotguns - Sniper users remain outnumbered. I mean, I played ONE game of it today, and i got fed up imidiately - Whenever i came into a face 2 face fight, my opponent just quickly snapped upp the shotgun and POOf, fight over.
And throughout the whole game, i ran across silly shotgun campers - This is seriously a major issue for the Team Snipers issue - Replace the shotguns with pistols, or atleast boltshots…
It’s one game type, and you vote on at the beginning of the game. Snipes are a distance weapon and shotguns are a close range. It’s balanced because everyone has one, so my suggestion is that you stay away from tight corners with a sniper rifle.
Additionally, snipers are broken. They have horrid latency when the connection sucks, so I’m not surprised people are camping with shotguns.

No idea. All I know it was a little harder to get kills with it unless you were really close.
Did you expect no shotguns in Shotty Snipers? I like Shotty Snipers from time to time. I don’t like the voting system that allows people to pick the same stuff over and over again leading to little to no variety.
