Fix Shotty Or Not? (Poll)

[SamHuntzyIzEmo]

I'v been looking around on the boards, And I have been seeing mixed thoughts on the shotty, So please vote if the shotty should be fixed or not. :)

[Mortificus]

you shouldve added one that said "leave it the same" because i dont think there is anything wrong with it, ergo, it cant be "fixed"

[Crosshair?]

Of course it should be fixed it's broken.

The hipfire doesn't work unless you're host, and the damage seems inconsistent. If those issues were fixed it'd be perfect.

those are problems of lag, not the shotty, me thinks.... decrease lag, and i think this would go away

The inconsistent damage maybe...but the hipfire shooting your feet isn't an issue of lag as it happens in local games. It could have been done on purpose though, we've never got an actual answer about it, either way, it's stupid that my shots hit my feet when I hip fire, they should hit my opponent/wall at hip level.

[MsDevilKitty]

if they fixed it the whole game would turn into gears 1 again ---

- wall bounce, shoot, wallbounce, shoot. and it gets boring watching yur team use the shotgun and just dance around with it, having a "skillful" shotgun battle which consists of running in circles and shooting every round, over, and over, and over

doesnt the bullets come out of the barrel, not some point in your back now? could explain the hipfireing going into the ground. i have seen a video with someone aiming and the shots going to the ground and that needs to be fixed, i will admit, but (personally) i dont use it enough to worry about it

[chaRged]

wtf do u mean fixed?!?! the shotgun is fine as it is. something tells me the person who posted this thread chainsaws everyone.

[II Donell II]

Based on botmatch experiances and what I've heard from friends, yes.

What would be the harm in increasing the speed of it? Right now, it seems useless other than to finish a downed opponent or killing from behind.

Theres no way Gears will be a shotgun-fest again because of stopping power.

The shotty is fine, the lancer needs little buff and the chainsaw should be easier to drop. It should be a little harder to get sucked into the chainsaw animation also, making a chainsawer have to aim a bit instead of using it like a vacuum.

Experienced players should be very hard to chainsaw, harder than it is to right now.

[Paranormal]

I don't care about hipfire but I HATE when the shotgun freezes when you try to quickaim then shoots two seconds later.

[chaRged]

Yeah you know what the poll should say. "View Poll Results: Should The Chainsaw Be Fixed?"

What you don't understand is that the lag will not be fixed. That's why shotty needs to be amped up just a bit and make the blindfire work. Otherwise multiplayer will remain a 2 piece **** fest.
