The Extended Mags glitch for Modern Warfare 3 is likely to be nerfed soon.

For those of you who do not know what the Extended Mag glitch is, it is a glitch which occurs when you add Extended Mags to a shotgun, a normal shotgun shoots 8 pellets from one round however with the Extended Mags perk,12 pellets get shot out, this increases the damage done and can make some shotguns over powered.

It was recently confirmed that this glitch will be addressed thanks to Creative Strategist at Infinity Ward on Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 Robert Bowling.

Why the hell would they nerf the worst gun class in the game? That doesn't make any sense to me. HOPEFULLY by "addressing" this, they will make the "glitch" occur naturally, with or without extended mags. That would be nice. All the shotguns except for the Striker suck without range/damage/extended mags. With just extended mags, they're perfect. ****ing retarded man. If this does happen, I'll be seriously upset, as the Striker is my favorite gun in the game.

But, oh well. It is what it is. I guess I'll find another weapon to go to. Not the end of the world like some people make this seem

They plan to address it, not fix it. Maybe it's not a glitch. Maybe they're leaving it in because shotguns are underpowered anyways. If you think it's overpowered, you probably suck. Most other guns kill in 3 shot and shoots 750 rounds per minute, if SG's are OP then they are overpowered also.

Shotguns shouldn't be nerfed, they need to be buffed up. Earlier with the SPAS and Forgrip and Kick, I got a hitmarker on a guy less than a foot away and it was a headshot. Then 5 seconds later I got a kill from 5 feet away that hit his lower body?

WTF!

People think the Striker's is overpowered, but when you really use it, you're like, damn, n it's not. It cannot compare to a ****** hip firing his sub machine gun from 20 feet away, or the Type 95, some how killing me in one burst through a wall. Leave it as is. I even tried using the Spas, man does it suck. I legitimately got 4 hitmarkers from point blank range, not good.


When I saw "nerf shotguns" I thought maybe they would beef up the shotguns because they are horrid, but wow I'm surprised... Nobody uses any of the shotguns in this game except for the striker, but wow why would they nerf the most underpowered guns in the game?

No one knows, shotguns were always pretty much crap. Now they are some what decent and they go and ruin them. Now there will be more people with PP90s, UMPs, and Type 95s spraying from the hip...

If I can suffer through 29 (?) levels to get damage and extended mags, I should be able to have my shotgun do slightly more damage. Even with the "glitch," it can still easily be beaten by an SMG or assault rifle, especially at long range.

Not to mention that the SPAS in Mw2 was 3 times as powerful as the SPAS in Mw3, and now it's a primary.

the striker can one shot you from smg range, while a sniper gets a hitmarker..makes sense right?
