Who had the briliant idea of giving the fastest mercs a god damnt shotgun

Kill them at medium/long range before they get to you. Their weapons are trash in medium range compared to SMGs and Assault Rifles, so they have to get close to you to be able to shotgun you.

On top of that, if they DO manage to close the gap on you, start bunny hopping around on and off walls while shooting back - low firerate weapons suffer drastically when their target is moving fast and unpredictably, whereas your automatic weapons don’t suffer so much.

I’m autistic. how does being autistic correlate to having bad aim or being a bad player? im able to do this kind of stuff while being autistic, so i suppose you just have to git gud.

just gonna leave this thread.[/quote]

To be fair, that video is full of just single kills which are mostly luck-based hipfires and multikills with one bullet, which don’t equate to skill at all. I’m sure you’re an adept player, but this video is classic example of selective skill - you have no long clips that show consistency (like a clip that lasts for a full minute where you get a Godlike or something).

Autism isn’t a laughing matter. It’s a condition that a person is born with, and can’t get rid of. What you just said was borderline racism coming from these facts.

Racism is treating people poorly because of the color of their skin.
People are born with a certain color of skin and can’t change what their skin color is.
Therefore making a joke about autism is really close to being racist.[/quote]

racism;[rey-siz-uh m];
A belief or doctrine that inherent differences among the various human racial groups determine cultural or individual achievement, usually involving the idea that one’s own race is superior and has the right to dominate others or that a particular racial group is inferior to the others.

Oh boy oh boy! Sorry that I “offended” you with a simple word that is ment for clarification for being exteremely inefficent at aiming.

And if you say something similar can mean that thing; For being a member of Earth, therefore I am banishing you from Earth. (See that makes no sense…)

Thats the point I dont have a problem with them personaly, especialy in min 10+ servers. But when it forces me to join a all level server (or a “Karma” server if you ask me) When I get overwhelmed and die by anymean (counting every weapon) other players get rekt (assuming its a dun’ goof’d balance match like (total lvl) 200lvl vs 30lvl matches and there is only rookies or people who forgot the game etc etc.) because they dont know what to do or panic, I get killed my shotguns in bullshit manners(as I stated I got killed on retarded ranges) yes but I am mostly able to counter them (unless I went full retard and cant aim at anything) but as I said other low levels or even sometimes -15lvls get rekt by a proxy that is bunny hopping and wall jumping (or sometimes even long walljumping) at them on retarded speeds and getting one shotted at medium ranges, So I am pretty much caring about the low levels (for my benefits of course so I dont face palm at my team for losing a 5v1 to a single shotgun proxy) instead of myself (you can count it as a lie if you think “for my benefits” counts as a selfish act). Because they either dont know what to do when to do or basicaly scared shitless (yes one litteraly squirmend at mic because he got 88 percented suddenly by a shotgun).Like it takes less skill than any other gun to kill someone (if you count pointing the crosshair at an enemy , spamming space bar , and pressing Mouse 1 dank ass MLG skills)
unlike a PDP that at least forces you to compensate for recoil if fired recklessly.

Full Definition of autism

a variable developmental disorder that appears by age three and is characterized by impairment of the ability to form normal social relationships, by impairment of the ability to communicate with others, and by stereotyped behavior patterns
autisticplay \ȯ-ˈtis-tik\ adjective or noun
autisticallyplay -ti-k(ə-)lē\ adverb

doesnt mention anything being extremely inefficient at aiming. i really wonder why people on the internet like using mental stability and diseases to clarify the gaming behaviour of others. people especially tend to use “Cancer”, “Autistic”, “Faggot”, “AIDS”, and other things that have in no way any impact on gaming ability.

autism actually allows you to lay more focus on things, or not become distracted quickly, which is good for gaming.

I’d say it’s more along the lines of “you have autism? Have fun with social interaction and language arts, because it’s looking at you with some sexy rape face over there…”

Cancer and AIDS I understand why it’s being used in a derogatory manner.

Cancer/AIDS
Bad things.
Spreads throughout a host’s body.

Basically applies to anyone using overpowered shit in a game or using stupid memes that somehow get around. Bad things, and they spread inside the host, whether it be a game or the goddamn internet.

Examples of bad ideas that spread throughout the internet:
HITLER DID NOTHING WRONG
(Dub the Dew)
EDGELORD FAG CUNT
(Sonic Franchise; the cancer forced the games to be complete jokes later on.)

(Just in case you are wondering why I have that spoiler up top, it’s because this guy practically says that he might as well have treated everyone’s comments as if they don’t exist.)

I’m gonna ignore the butthurt party up above and talk about stuff way up above that’s important.

First, an analysis of the picture.

It’s not possible for a single shot from the Remburg to kill Thunder, so either you were already at low health and a few stray pellets killed you, or it was multiple shots from the Aura. Either way, you were not “one shotted.”

Second, a commentary on the text above the picture.

You’re saying you were killed by a shotgun as Vassili at a range where sniper rifles are most effective(50+ meters). Sure you were. It was either a fluke, or your aim is so bad that the shotgun wielder had time to sit there shooting at you waiting for a fluke. If you’re being consistently killed by shotguns at both close range and long range, you need to go improve your aim, because you are the poster boy of team Potato. If you’re just raging about a few occasions where you were killed, then you need to dry your tears and deal with it. People die. They’re supposed to.

Conclusion: Just another raging noob thread here, folks. Nothing to see. Move along.

Actually it is possible to be killed by 1 shot, since the Remburg does 96 damage combined, and if you get a headshot that’s 192 damage. But at that range it would be impossible since the spread of the pellets would make it impossible to fit them all on his head, not to mention the damage drop off in medium range.

Edit - I’m wrong.

Shotguns only have a 1.5x headshot multiplier.

(ethicalVeneer) #38

Lol, I’d argue that it’s easier to do it as Rhino, especially considering access to the Ahnuld. Doing 50 damage pings at mid range is ridiculous, and wall jumps are just as broken on him as they are the light mercs.

Shotguns are by no means overpowered, but they are definitely an annoying weapon to fight when the movement mechanics in this game heavily lend themselves to their use.[/quote]
