How does one gain 'REAL Shotty' skills? By using the damn thing constantly, because it gets them quick and easy kills. They can run around the map like a fucking maniac, turn a corner, see someone, hit a button and BLAM they get another frag. They don't need to utilize cover, teamwork, or tactics.

I've played in Ladder matches against teams that insisted on having shotguns available. And nearly every single one of them used a shotty, if not then a sniper rifle. And these guys displayed a severe lack of teamwork. They were trying to be little one-man armies that ran around shooting at nothing and spamming the fucking game with their macros. And this is a clan that i KNOW you all know of.

Let's just put it this way. I have a different view on how to play a WW2 themed game. I believe in playing as a well balanced team, using well thought out, and practiced, map-specific tactics.

The fucking Shotgun doesn't fit into that view. And I won't even go into piddly little nit-picking like how it isn't historically accurate.

Agree to disagree?
