(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Firstly Shotguns:

anyone agree with me that the SPAS is an absolute piece of crap? don't get me wrong its got a fantastic range and often gets you 1 hit kills at a good distance, but when i switch to a shotgun its when someone is coming close quarters, and no matter what i do the spas seems to get hitmarkers at close range yet it 1 hit kills at further range, just defeats the object, if it could 1 hit kill at close range consistently it'd be perfect.
at the minute im using the M1014(Grip) and AA-12(Extended Mags) and finding them by far the best.

Secondly: anyone agree that CoD needs much more customisation? there is a lot compared to some games, but i think we should have alot more options, such as being able to change the calibre of the round thats fired, and adjusting the gun itself and adding parts to it other than iron sights.
so specifically parts which can change velocity,damage, armor peircing,recoil,zoom,accuracy etc
anyone who is familiar with guns will know there are many, many ways to customise a weapon.

yes there are things which do this, but i think having alot of smaller options would be good, especially as it could allow more unique setups instead of the classic, scavenger, stopping power, any perk 3 with AR grenade launcher.

We should be able to customise the Stock, Barrel, Sights, etc. I agree, but I don't seem to worry about hitmarkers with the Spas because by the time they see me after I get a hitmarker I've shot them again and killed them.

yh my problem isn't normal players, i'd often take them with a second shot. its commando users, if my 1st shot is a hitmarker at close range like it often is with the spas, then i'm screwed thats why if swapped to the semi-auto M1014, and Full Auto AA-12 the M1014 for non-scavenger classes, and the AA-12 for scavenger classes.

i agree with you, the spas gets hitmarkers at close even with SP, but it has nice range though. All the shotguns are underpowered, i mean why even use one when you can use commando? instant kill at insane range..i hate commando but i sometimes need to use it cos alot others are

How did you get extended mags on the AA-12? I find it hard to get a single kill with it due to the low clip AND low range.

the best map for aa-12 is favela
go camp
go on the top of bildings find your enemies down jump kill them while you are in midd air because you will die if u r not using commando PRO it's just 400 kills easy!
it was my primyary weapon on my 2nd prestige when u have grip use it then FMJ then EM

M1014 is the best just can't wait to unlock it again!
EM = 6 shots

yeah i agree with both. exactly. the spas owns at far range and then 2 feet away from me i get a hit marker. WTF??!! and the gun customization... like in MGS4, u could do a lot with the gun. not caliber of the bullet but all those different attachments, tht was cool. anyone agree?

ive not played MGS4 but ive played some offline games which had some amazing customisation and i see know reason why it wouldn't work in mw2.
plus with more combinations, theres alot more positives and negatives and a customised gun could be built to suit a players style and there would be alot more variety online.

i'd say at the minute at least 1/3rd of setups are an assault rifle, scavenger, stopping power, perk 3. the attachment usually a grenade launcher or red dot sight.

@ rares
i im a 10th prestige 70 and have been for ages so ive got mastery of every secondary and primary weapon, i got AA-12 mastery 1st prestige easily though it depends on your playing style.
i spend alot of time camping, camp sniping or defending so a quarter or more of my kills in a game are often shotgun kills from people attempting revenge kills.
Camp in one spot and you'll find alot of use for the shotgun, particularly when a claymore gets tripped but no kill.

yeah, at least 1/3rd. prob more like half. but MGS4 had pretty good customization. lots of different options. its annoying how many ppl camp with SCAR. get a life guys (no offense to anyone here) lol ^

You prefer the semi-auto shotguns? Speaks for itself.
