thankyou

Sorry bro I used mine a long time ago

thinkin about it

lol idk mane

oh, so just because someone can handle the weapon unbalance means it's okay? well, I'm sure someone was happy with the holocaust, and was profitable because of it. That doesn't make it right. now does it?

well, warzone =/= every gametype. so there is one gametype made for lancer/hb. So? how would shotgun people like you feel if there was only one gametype for shotgun? You would complain and complain and complain until it was changed.

Just because it's possible to beat shotgun with lancer doesn't mean that I should have to be 3x better than someone at the game to be able to beat them, when they just have to be half as good as me to beat me.

Just because people turned to shotgun after the fact doesn't mean that people went into the game because of the shotgun.

It was a shotgun fest because of melee stun, shoot out of roadie run, and because people were happy that they could use a shotgun in the game. Gears 2 forces you to use shotgun, just because it's more powerful and longer range. If you don't use shotgun, you can't win as much as with it.

I mentioned this already though.

oh really? shotgun got people into gears? some weapon that is generic to shooters got people into the game, and not the fact that there was a chainsaw attatched to a weapon? it was the main selling point of the game. If anyone denies it, they are just being ignorant and stubborn. Before gears 1, there were no shotguns that were possible to be used as a go-to weapon. I don't mind that people use it, I just don't want it being overpowered to the point where it's impossible to beat at medium range.

It was also balanced in the first game. Melee stun and shoot after roadie run made the game shotgun dominant, but with the right tactics lancer and even snub could ruin any shotguner. I actually prefer gears 1 compared to this ridiculousness. Lancer is what got everyone into the game, and some people liked the shotgun because it was an easier and faster way to get gore than the chainsaw.

just most of the forum community play with shotguns. This is part of the reason why this game fell off the top 10 most played games on live after that batch of new games came out. I like everything about this game except the shotgun, which is way overpowered and it ruins the game. It might be popular, but I know tons of people who love the boomshot, yet everyone on this forum complained about it, so they lowered the ammo count. this forum is 90% shotgun-only users who either admit it or claim to use every weapon, 9% people who use all weapons, and I'm the 1% that hates the shotgun and uses everything else.

This forum isn't a great representation of the rest of the community.

I'm not a troll. I'm making a point that you seem unable to grasp. Plenty of other people failed to grasp it, while a small few were able to see this point, and not look like an idiot by calling me a troll.
