yood 345 Posted July 9, 2018 (edited) I believe that all weapons are fairly balanced. this is a different weapon with different tactics of the game. yukon from the Joker box. this is the Legend it costs a lot of money. he simply must shoot like that. Little Orbit has already changed the old system of spawning players, it turned out EVERYTHING is worse! now I do not see a large variety of weapons in the game . changing the balance of weapons may be useful in the distant future . personal opinion. and it might be different from yours.

crusade 89 Posted July 9, 2018 Strange that people think partial shotgun hits are due to lack of skill. The JG in particular is in such a bad spot, I would say this change to shotguns is warranted. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not even they are going to 1/2 shot you and then throw a perc grenade at you i can’t wait to be one of those people! nice pfp I know that from saints row.

dr0zone 15 Posted July 10, 2018 memba when shotguns had a god-pellet and we could snipe with them from 75m away and CSGs could two tap consistently from 30m while sprinting around corners Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I personally think they did need some form of fix or change, but that is just my opinion. Like I said though, i'm going to wait to try them out before I make any judgments about the necessity of this change. For sure ive been using a country gent and shotguns are nowhere as consistant as they were before that update, you know the one if youve been playing for a few years. The new patch should make them more consistent and more enjoyable to use hopefully. Edited July 10, 2018 by Toasted Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Desmila 13 Posted July 10, 2018 Personally I find shotguns to outright piss me off with their inconsistency - I can see that I'm directly aiming at someone and it will still take me 3-4 shots to kill someone, rarely do I get the 2 shot kill. Call me shit if you want but I remember shotguns being slightly better couple of years before this shit. I'm glad they want to fix the consistency of the weapon and make it at the power level it should be at, it will deffo be an alternative to playing the OCA accuracy powerhouse atm. -Desmila Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AmyKent 6 Posted July 13, 2018 Shotguns are okay as they are now and they shouldn't change anything about them. you can perfectly 2 hit people if your aim is good and making them more forgiving is a bad idea. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As Matt stated the change is being made in part due to poor hitreg at high latency. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Boowy 11 Posted September 16, 2018 i don't agree either with those stupid IR/gun changes... Pointless, totaly. Give low skilled people more opportunities to be "good"... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted September 17, 2018 Sadly the community is over saturated with dumbasses now who think shotguns are balanced and ir3 change was absolute shite and Little Orbit is just listening to the majority ( the shitty silvers who think they know everything about the game because they have 20 hours in apb ) and Little Orbit just aims to please the community. Im just here riding the last wave into the sunset that APB has to offer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
