please fix the 1 hit shotgun in multiplayer

Post » Fri Dec 31, 2010 2:13 am

after playing multiplayer since release i have found a lot of people cheating with 1 hit hack but also recently found that if you put rapid fire on the shotgun it almost always 1 hits enemies at resonably close range so i stopped using it makes gameplay boring :( .. but i have also noticed a lot of other players have realised this too and now the game is turning into a shotgun fest :( certain clans are exclusively using upgraded rapid fire shotgun as main weapon and making it very boring for others .i like a fair play for all its bad enough with game laggs and cheats without stupid 1 hit weapons even with full armour you just get fragged every time :(

upgraded rapid fire shotguns? Im assuming you're referring to the jackal... And in any case - jackal is 2 shot minimum for me - only marshal takes 1 shot to kill

The killcam in MP is super laggy, when someone fires 2 or 3 shots with the Jackal it always look like they only fired 1.

Or if you're talking about seeing it real-time, it could still be lag that is causing you to only see 1 shot.

One hit close range, thats what shotguns do. Usually it takes two close range shots to kill someone in power mode and one shot for someone in stealth mode.

The single shot Jackal is fantastic.

I say the shotties are somewhat balanced because you have the Feline, which is an absolute spray hose and it has a greater range. The other weapons like the SCARAB and SCAR have a much greater range and rate of fire to compensate. Usually shotty users have to run around and get closer. In addition, you have to aim more, especially for the semi-automatic Jackal and Marshall. But right now, I'm finding the Marshall is terrible - I seem to be missing even when I'm really close. The Jackal in semi-auto has a greater rate of fire and is more accurate than the Marshall.

I like the marshel with rapid fire. The thing is so slow that without rapid fire you are pretty much dead. It takes me 2 shots to kill someone close range. I do think that the jackel is kind of cheap though. People just pray and spray and it usually works.

It's not hackers. I think people think there are hackers but there ARE NO hackers except for a small amount EVERY NOW and then on SOME servers that you simply can leave.

The kill cam is what's messed up. I shoot a guy twice with marshall and melee him. He kills me with a scar, and to me, he shot at least 20 shots. In the kill cam, it's like he shot 10 shots and I only shot him ONCE without any melee. LAG LAG LAG, but that's on a non-region server mainly.

To be fair, spraying and praying with the SCAR and Feline is WAY more effective. The SCAR especially.

Yeah the Marshall is a 1 shot kill when the hit detection actually works
