ONE THING I WOULD ADJUST IS THE POWER OF THE SHOTGUN...
....should take no more than 2 shots to down an opponent close range.... ....
definitely make the shotgun more powerful at close range.
I never thought of that, but you are totally right. I was using the Jackal for a while because I thought it was Bad-ass, but stopped using it when I had to shoot a guy 5 or more times to drop him.
And seriously: Why the hell would they make the "extended magazine" for the Jackal only hold 8 shells? I felt totally ripped off, after I used up a hard-earned accessory unlock on the extended mag, only to get one extra shell. Stupid. Entended magazine tube for shotguns in real life add anywhere from 2 to 5 rounds, depending on the shell size.
Ripped off. I would have used the unlock for a silencer if I had have known that before hand.
But yes, Shotguns should kill with 2 shots close range, 3-4 shots at medium range, 5-10 shots at further ranges imo.
Also, what would be cool is a fire selection, so you can switch to a single-shot slug, kind of like how you switch between full auto and single shot with the assault rifles. (Left digital pad)
Then you could take one accurate shot at long range and have a reticle like when you are shooting the SCAR, etc.
Just an idea.
