I don't have any hatred toward shotguns. In fact, I'm probably just as good of a shotgunner as I am a sniper. And I never said that a person is necessarily a bad player if they complain about snipers. I'm just saying that they might not particularly be good shotgunners since they should probably learn some way of avoiding them, or even attacking them, especially when I was able to use a CQC load out to do this with Hunters, who aren't even close to as good as Titans when closing the gap. Yesturday of course wasn't the only day that I used a CQC load out since I use shotguns and fusion rifles nearly as much as I do snipers. While I do use a sniper rifle most of the time, I only use it since I happen to be a fairly good sniper. If I feel that there are too many snipers, then I actually will use a shotgun since I still believe that they are the better special weapon. I don't have hate for shotguns. In fact, I don't even care if I die to them since it's my fault if I die to them. I simply don't like it when people abuse them to the point that they have more kills with them than their primaries, which I'm sure many people have done. If you check my kills, I have far more handcannon kills than anything else, and no, I don't use the last word very often unless I find shotguns to be irritating. Also, I'm not entirely sure if the current state of snipers is really bad at all. They handled far better in year 1, yet nobody seemed to complain about them. I say don't try to fix a weapon that's not broken, it'd make the game much less fun. I think I've already said that I wouldn't mind an increase in flinch, but any changes to handling or body shot damage should remain unchanged. I guarantee that I can outplay anyone who uses a sniper who claims that snipers are OP if I use a shotgun against them. Anyone who wants to challenge that, I will be more than happy to play in a rumble match with any of you. If I lose, it certainly wouldn't be becaude a sniper was OP. This isn't to sound arrogant either, it's just to prove a point that snipers can be countered very effectively if you know how to.
