    Exclamation ## There Is Nothing Wrong With The Sawed Off ! ##

    Okay first off i am going to state that i am in no way an SO fan boy, i find them actually rather boring & pretty unreliable imo + ive always been a Gnasher freak since Gears 1 Anyway.... My point is that all these people moaning about the SO being OP are just been silly and quite pathetic tbh. For a start most the maps ive played so far a very spacious maps and so SO fire can be soooo easily avoided it's untrue, also i have been killed no more than 5 times by the SO compared to about 100+ times in the beta so that obviously tells you that EPIC have nurfed the weapon perfectly.

    At the end of the day people Epic are NOT gonna take a weapon out of the game that took them months designing + all the hard work, the simple solution to avoiding SO deaths is 1) Stay aware of what's going on all around you at all times & 2) Don't creep around wall's as your just asking to get gibbed...

    I dont have a problem with the SO during gameplay, just when i'm 12-1 and all my team are dead (all with horrendous k/d) and i'm left against a team all with SO's, near enough impossible to win.

    SO isnt really an issue even with a few people with one. Powerful still yeah but if the guy misses his one shot or is not even close enough you have what 3-4 secs to gnasher him. Let alone the gnasher has been capable of downing a player before the So gets within effective range. its interesting to say the least. Some players are really effective with the SO but others are just as effective with the gnasher but they can take flankings with a gnasher unlike the SO.
    If you can stand your alive, if your alive its a good day.

    I guess that all depends on how good you are, I prefer the gnasher, but I was using the sawed off and dominating with it, I mean wrecking people. I ended up on a 9 kill streak because I just kept picking up ammo, I have two 2 for 1 kills when they both tried to rush me with their SO's. Two people rushing at you and you are in a point blank situation where if you pull your trigger first you get a 2 for 1, if either of them pull their trigger first you get nothing, in that situation the gnasher would never win no matter what, unless they both missed, so in that situation the sawed off is superior.

    It's not difficult to deal with at all, and I hope Epic doesn't cave like Treyarch did when the community whined about various things and ruined the multiplayer. I hate using it but it's fine. It's really short range so, if you're allowing people to get close at all then you clearly aren't good at the game.

    It's a matter of time before people learn that the rifles are really strong.... People will learn to look behind them and be aware of the spawns, and shotguns will turn into a defensive weapon, the sawed off being the worse choice of the two...
