Default Shotguns For Those Who Do Not Understand There Use - 12-03-2002, 03:02 PM

This post is for t hose who have nevered actually used a shotgun in real life as a member of a real life military unit, police force, or prision reactionary team.

Why is the shotgun in Mohaa? Simple: it is a powerful close quarters combat weapon with a enough force to stop even the biggest light skined targets (humans).

It was not intended to be a medium or long range weapon. It is was meant to deal massive damage at short range. If used properly in real life or in Mohaa it is a great weapon for close quarters combat.

Used correctly, especially with fragmention or concussion grenades, a shotgun wielder can easliy clear a small room or bunker of emenies.

So what the hell do I know? I have had the honor with serving with greatest army in the world in combat: US Army. My unit succesfully used shotguns within their squads for clearing bunkers in a land far from home over 10 years ago.

Yeah.. But did anyone in your squads use the shotgun like me? Were talking non stop run em down shotty whore action. And when I'm reloading. I'm either hiding behind doors or dodging bullets like neo on the matrix.

And why doesn't America's Army have a shotgun? That would of been cool.

good point, I wouldn't mind the shotgun so much if the other weapons were realistic (seriously there isn't a man alive who can take 3 .45 calber rounds to the chest then dance around you and shoot a shotgun)

The Shotgun is the uber n00b weapon! Like in my previous topic, it takes no talent or skill to use it whatsoever. I wouldn't be to mad, but they devolped the weapon saying it was 'short range' when in fact, if you get one on your tail from across the map chances are that 2 blast will take you down. So to all those who use the shotty STFU!

You obviously just got off the train from noobz vill if you still hate shotguns.

I personally have no problem owning with shotguns. And whenever I decide to use another weapon...I never have problems with other people using shotguns..

So again.. Your either a noob and suck.. Or you've just been dealt that killer shotty blow, in the 1st 20 seconds, one to many times..

And BTW.. Sound mods are ghey..

Ok, once again STFU! I can kill shotty's easily, it's the across maps 1 shot that suck. Obvioulsy, you either play in realism or you your self are n00b enough to use a shotty.

P.S. Sound mods aren't gay, maybe your fuckin stupid enough to not make a sound mod...jackass.

Some sound MODs are considered cheats.. Like making sounds louder or more distinct can give you an advantage when someone is pulling out a rocket launcher.. Or cooking a grenade.

And sound MODs that change the voice commands/taunts/ect.. They are ghey.. The main reason I say so. Is the fact that they make using voice futile since the receiver probably is hearing something totally different than you are.

So sound MODs are ghey nStuff..

Other than that.. I do firmly believe that people still crying about weapons are either noobz or seriously depressed for teen teenagers.
