A discussion of shotguns
I was watching the devils lair game play trailer and couldn't help myself from googly eyeing the shotguns in it, im a total shotgun fanatic in any game, in battlefield, call of duty, halo, gears of war, even borderlands before the nerfed amped shields. But nine times out of ten they are fairly weak because people are always like "there to powerful, they must be nerfed" or "they shouldnt kill from that far away".
But watching this trailer gave me hope that shotguns will be a viable option thats actually usefull and not because its a weapon class thats required to be there. i really hope that no one complains about them (which i know is going to happen nut hopefully not to much) and they still as effective as ive seen them in the trailer

1 ReplyShotguns are in the secondary or special weapon slot, bungie has described this as a slot for weapons that are amazing at doing one thing, but one thing only. The know weapons for the special slot are shotguns, sniper rifles, and fusion rifles. The shotgun will be great at close quarters, but probably like halo, will become useless outside of a set range. Sniper rifles will be great at taking out targets from a long range, but will be to awkward and clunky for close quarters. The fusion rifle will be able to take out multiple enemies very quickly, but requires a charge time that will stop it from being effective in close or long range scenarios.
