Shotgun -
08-30-2002, 12:07 AM
The shotgun has to be the best gun in the game if u know how to play with it but i mostly snipe but in levls like v2 rocet facility it owns and even in destroyed villag u can own if someone is at a range distance with a smg or something RUN! most people with shotguns dont realize this and die but its sos simple to get them.Just run into a building and wait at the door and i bet 10 to 1 that person will follow u in the building and boom their dead
1 shot kill i love it comegetsome:

hahaha.... mornoic and barely historic, sort of.
Although a shot gun was rarely(if ever) used in combat, simular in nature to MOHAA is another matter.
Yes it is a decent wepon in an un modded game, why cause it kills to easy, hell that is why i like the STG under CKR, but the shot gun is not that historicly correct, nor is it favored.
You'll understand this sooner or later, and you will noticet the draw backs in close combat, on a larage game, as someone can easily out shoot you, especially if they know how to play, As the shot gun is an extremely inacurate wepon, (sort of.)
All your post suggests to me is that plain an simple you take this game half serious -- which is reccomended-- as the level of seriousness I can take this gmae is mindnumbing, and more or less disturbing!
Now Back to the point, do you often find yourself not making first, do you often find yoourself wondering why people call you a newb, ass, Fag, so on and so forth, do you find yourself having horrible and outlandish ratios???
Well my slow friend, you are a NEWB! and well we all were, accpet it!! but in my view its like Gay pride, sure i'm fine with them, sometimes I can tolerate there dress and actions in public, But honestly they need a Gay Pride march as much as the KKK needs a ralley. (THIS LAST PARAGRAPH IS NOT MENT TO OFFEND, THIS IS MY OPION AN AS I EXPRESSED ABOVE, WE ALL SHOULD HAVE ONE)
Why, you ask? why is it a newb wepon, a smart person containg knowledge, could easily dodge shotgun rounds in the game, infact when I come up against a shotgun -- which is rare on a CKR server, as the shotguns contain little power, and are modded this way, promoting other and more exciting wepons to use, which by the way also kill in ONE shot if aimed properly(not to mention, Aiming is rather easy) -- Well... Like i said "When I come up against a Shotgun in a game I normaly win the dual, on about a 10:1 ratio. the ratio could be higher if I knew s/he was running towards me.
do you see, although a shotgun may kill in one shot, it rarely does, thus causing problems, especially if the server has a realism mod on it, IE. Crow Kings Server which runs his CKR(Crow Kings Realism) mod, the shotgun is modded(modified) to be less powerfull then the stock standard. the CKR mod also moddes other wepons makeing them stronger, and more appealing. IE. the dreadful STG, or KAR(mauser) or MOB's server BAR.
Now suppose I ran up to you, and had 15 shots left in a Thompson, and you had two rouns left in your shot gun, and I dodged your bullets and you dodged mine, Well we both have to reload, the THompson reloads faster then the shotgun(one of the slowest reloading time for a wepon in this game) and assuming it doesn't turn into a pistol war, I will infact be finished re-loading, And incase you run, I would most likely follow, and like i said 10:1(+) odds are you would be dead.
So what if the shotgun is good on a laggy larage Omaha game, those games require little skill. Know how i know that, THat is how i started playing MOHAA, in larage laggy servers, I can remember back about 6months(+) ago sniping in Stalingrad, Camping out with a Rocket in omaha(keeping in mind this was way before Crow Kings server)
I eventually got sick of that, and used a real wepon. and Discovered Crow Kings server, which i quickly blossemed into what I consider a rather decnet player(i'll be modest here.) although I metioned using a sniper rifle in stalingrad(NOT RECCOMENDED) a Sniper is a toatly bad wepon, it is good target practice, and fun if used in a resecptable and SMART siuation, IE. no small games, unless otherwised instructed, or if the game you are in has about 10 snipers already.
Well now, I think i conveyed my point rather well, as well as rather confusing. Don't worry in the near future i will proffread this beast.

shotgun has its purpose, just like the stg, bar, kar98, pistols, nades, and so on, nothing really special about it. if you really love sniping/shotties, hop on different servers running different mods, I can gaurantee you the shotty wont be as effective in the ckr environment, sniping in the doa (takes alot of practice to get any good at sniping), mg'ing with ares5. come to the doa server and snipe, or join rude's server and use the shotty, I can gaurantee you that you will die to my pistol before you kill me.
another thing, you were talking about having someone follow you into a building so you could camp at the door and kill them. Its appearant you haven't played others who are a little better. Any decent player no matter what server they are on, would at least chuck a few nades or take there time by glancing in to see if you are camping. if you are gonna bait ppl, dont expect to be a sound plan, alot of ppl can easily get you other ways

The shotgunis an awesome weapon. I use it occasionally.
And who is the real noob? The guy owning with the shotty, or the guy that doesnt know how to fight one?
Let me give you guys a hint.... if you see a shotugn on a open map, DONT LET IT GET CLOSE!!!! And by all means, dont start calling the guy names when you run up to him and give him the perfect shot. That makes you a crybaby noob.

a smart shotgunner will use it in tight areas ie ...alleys, small rooms, where u can maximize spread. great in stock on certain maps. you get 5 shells...use em carefully. they suck in realism. common knowledge.
also they were used in ww1 and ww2...aka trench guns. someone posted some great links about the historical use of shotguns in combat over at PMOH btw....
10-1 ratio vs a shotgun? ill tell u what "periodical table of elements"....u wouldnt get that ratio on a good clan server...you would be even lucky to get 2/1 ratio...and i bet if u popped in to visit the =KaoS= fellas we would be happy to accomodate u with a negative kill/death ratio..... oOo: To much shit talk around here lately...especially from the new-comers. NO ONE CARES HOW GOOD U R!!!!!!!!!!!!! OR WHAT YOUR RATIOS R...but im sure they would care to see u proven wrong....heh....
10/1 ratio experiment can be tested below in the following Crucible:
The =Käø§= Server operates on the following schedule;
Monday-Friday 3pm-8am EST
Weekends and Holidays---All day
Mohaa Server - IP address 65.174.230.77
Dual 1 Ghz PIII, 1GB RAM, Raid 5 Win2000 Server

I don't use the shotgun.
Why?
I don't know it just doesn't seem to be all too military to me (kind of like those new-age crappy one-hander SMGs, aka the terrorist guns).
I prefer real military weapons, preferably full auto and belt fed biggrin:

Will this topic ever go away??
I think it will be debated until this game is over.
Realism mods are not really realism....they are just anti-shottie and anti-rocket mods.
Shotties are far from invincible. Just learn how to play against them.
