Well 3 of the 4 aren't really made for ADS. The Argus is the ADS shotgun but you have to be dead-on and in range to get the kill. That being said, when you do aim properly, it has obscene kill range for a shotgun (read: good, not broken). I love it.

Will I prestige tonight, and then hate myself mere moments later?
I could use an extra class slot...

That gorgon nerf better be something minor like slightly more recoil, because otherwise they are just going to go through downward spiral where every decent gun that isn't an AR or SMG becomes nerfed to uselessness.

So I have an issue with at least the Sheiva and the last burst assault rifle. I'm not sure if the first burst fire rifle does it too. When I try to fire bursts in succession at an enemy sometimes it freezes after the first burst and won't let me fire another one. However, if I'm not shooting at anyone, it will allow me to fire them regularly. This has gotten me killed multiple times.

Honestly I think all the weapons are fine as they are now, not seeing anything being abused.
It has an idiotic fire rate lock to try to stop auto fire controllers. But the RoF is so low it's easy to hit with your trigger finger.
I knew the one weapon that I really find fun to use in this game would get nerfed. Everything else just seems so average and boring to me. It's like they're carbon copies of guns from previous games. And this feels like the first time in CoD history that people are actually using LMGs for once. Good, let them. I'm tired of seeing ARs and SMGs everywhere in this franchise.
do you have short memory or something? lmgs on bo2 were amazing.

I'm firing each burst individually. I do it at the same cadence when I fire away from a target. Testing it that way showed no issues. I've never experienced this from a cod game before. The Sheiva and 4-round burst rifle both do this.
Same, every weapon is useful, some more than others but nothing is wrong with that.
Weapons are balanced enough, and if something is going to change then don't make it the damage.
If gorgon gets nerfed watch everyone not use it anymore, and then we're back to using fucking 5 guns for the rest of Blops 3 lifetime.
I feel the same, though there may be a few weapons that could do with buffs. Weapons that aren't touched so much for one reason or another. I'll be upset if the Gorgon gets nerfed badly though. Only used it for a bit, but it seemed fine as is. I did well, not great. It still has plenty of disadvantages.
Well the Haymaker is easy mode regardless.

And because everyone complained they nerfed the magazine size and worsened the TTK on LMGs.
Now every AR/SMG user that hates getting killed by something different is still complaining because they still might on occasion get killed by a decent LMG.
They are even still complaining about shotguns even though they are all already absolutely useless as a result of their bitching.
Snipers meanwhile are also useless because these same people can't stand ever getting killed by a sniper.
Except for the fact that the haymaker has a worse TTK than ARs and SMGs, even in close range.
I've been out of the MP conversation for a long time but here I am reminded how decisive multiplayer games/modes are.

I was just going to ask how the servers were. I may play tonight if I can't sleep. Needing some awesome bow kills.
It's got more consistency with hipfire though.
Running into a weird glitch. Everytime I try to change my primary weapon I get "UI Error 18408" and booted out of Create A Class and my specialist portrait is replaced with whatever the previous primary was. Game crashed after a couple attempts but when I got back in the issue remained.
Idk, I have been having fun with haymaker with ADS. Soo fun.
TTK isn't that important when you can exploit all of your movement options without having to put a lot of effort into aiming.

They need to move Ground War into the regular playlist so that people on PC actually play it. I recognize that people are dumb and just jump straight into TDM half the time, but damn it sucks to never be able to get a game of Ground War.
Same here cant do anything, very annoying.

True, but any SMG/AR user with quickdraw and decent aim can almost always beat the haymaker.
You still have to aim, hipfire or ADS. This isn't BO1 or BO2 where shotgun hipfire spread is huge.

No lag for me.
I am in love with silenced SMGs. Just had a 2.5 KDR day, even when my team lost. Can't wait to try the last one.
I just got a hotfix update so it could be that

Lagging so bad on PS4 at the moment. I'll restart.

They're nerfing it? Good.
Yeah, every other game with my party is a mess. Of course, those were the games we lost.
I feel like the matchmaking is just like it was in Advanced Warfare. Its definitely matching by player skill first.
Did anyone else read this?

Just lost a close domination game, looked at the scoreboard, and saw a teammate go 1-33. How does that even happen?

Where is there word of a Gorgon nerf? Typical. Can't have a good LMG.
And the Haymaker needs a buff if anything. So many fucking hitmarkers from point blank range. I'm grinding for a laser/long barrel/rapid fire set up and it's painful.

No idea.
I'm not getting the "they" and "their" part. That a typo?
It's possible when rushing to get kills. I can die alot many times and then remembergtta play smart and not that reckless

Yeah, it is. I always try to clear the area then move in.
