I actualy got to use them today,someone died and i picked them up...Anyway i was very far away from the enemy and with those shottys i got him!

Way way too powerfull for the game if i must say!

I dont think they should be removed,But they should lower the distance and damage amount imo....because everyones getting quite high ranked now and the newer players stand no chance realy against these guns.

exactly i dont use them, i use the spaz shotgun, the default first one, and it so pleasing to kill people using models with them, but i have picked them up when running low on ammo or like earlier today 5 guys on the other team all using models so i picked them up i went 32-2 or something like that just sprinting with models. also on the map derail in the middle warehouse i was looking out of the window down at the train cars and kill 2 guys with models that way 2. i would be hapy if they took akimbo and some rang away from them or even just akimbo.

Why debate about this when its already been decided?

Its either going to be removed or fixed.

Leaving them as they are isn't an option it seems.

3rd hand info from 1 person who works at Infinity Ward. When Activision or Infinity Ward makes a statement about then I'll believe it.

Damn near everyone on that forum said to leave em alone as well.

Also LOL at the guy freaking out about how you couldn't possibly duel wield shotguns.

Considering everything he's said so far has come to be, I'd take his word for it.

Also,

he should have said you cant dual wield shotguns and achieve amazing accuracy with them. the models i think if you were to put a scope on them you could practically snipe with them.

It doesn't take any effort at all to hit someone with a shotgun, even at medium range. Read back through the first few pages of the thread. 12g penetration is still 58% at 45 yards.

We also established that balance is more important than realism. I'm with you when it comes to adding range to the shotguns, I'm really glad they're actually usable now. But the Winchesters are just out of control, they have considerably more range than any of the other shotguns.

YOU established that, theres still a good amount of people that agree with me about the realism, but I'm done debating that one since we'll obviously never agree on it and they're changing it anyway haha.

My reply to him was about how you could actually do that fine in real life, had nothing to do with the game really.

I beg to differ, it does take effort and aim. Even buck shot at long range doesn't have that much of a spread, unless you are using a very short barrel. Now like the Taurus Judge which has a very small barrel gets a pretty decent spread but isn't really all that accurate say past 20 yards.
 
Sweet so they're going to fix it huh? That'll make things a bit less frustrating. On the other hand, I picked up a pair of them from someone and damn they're crazy with marathon, lightweight and commando (all pro).

Fine, it takes a little effort, but not much more than half ass aiming it. Certainly not impossible to use 2 of em and hit something at decent range.

AK is cool, nothing special though. Pretty much just decent all around.

Our american friends have rights to defend their own homes if someone tresspasses i think....where as here,if someone breaks into our home and we smash their head in with a bassball bat or shoot them....we get sent down! :D

Just trespassing would be a bit much.. Far as I know we only have the right to shoot someone if its in self defense, meaning your life is in danger and you shot the person to protect yourself.

Granted there is a difference between shooting someone to protect yourself compared to shooting someone to protect yourself then shooting them again even though your life is no longer in danger, otherwise known as assault or murder.

/rant plus I'm bored..lol
