Campaign shotty compared to multiplayer shotty

Do the campaign and multiplayer shotties have the same range?

They should, but the shotgun in the campaign isn't really the MAIN weapon so I didn't really use it...

I've just been playing Campaign a bit (needing that COG tags achievement) and got kills using the shotty from 30 feet away. So I thought the Campaign shotty has a better range (!?) but can anyone confirm or tell me if it's just me?

Shotgun on Hardcore in campaign against locust requires twice as much damage to kill locust as in multiplayer.

Yes, but I'm only talking about range, not power.

The guns are the same, its the connection which affects your perception of the power and range.

This might be true in a local/LAN vs. Online match, but the weapons in campaign are either different or the locust are very different. There are 3 difficulties so something has to change between them. Personally I think it is the locust that are stronger rather than weaker weapons. But i do know that they did not increase the power of the lancer in Local or Campaign. Not that hardly anyone plays local anyway...So there might be some differences between campaign and online.

The shotgun is still the same weapon, Campaign and Multiplayer. The multiplayer incarnation may seem more powerful (or less depending on your style of play) than it's campaign counterpart because it is a much more widley used weapon online.

i never used the shotty in campaign and i usually trade my shotgun for any other weapon in multi-player(IMO the hammerburst is much better,its capabilities are far too under rated)
