man i just cannot get a feel for the shotguns besides the haymaker. I just can never seem to get any kills with them when ADS.

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.

It definitely is super satisfying when you get a kill. thats why im sticking with it.
 
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.

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.

Honestly I think all the weapons are fine as they are now, not seeing anything being abused.
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.

One thing I wouldn't mind is the silencers being buffed a bit.

It will be super nerfed, you can count on it.

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.
Well the Haymaker is easy mode regardless.

Except for the fact that the haymaker has a worse TTK than ARs and SMGs, even in close range.

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.
 
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.
 
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.

Does anyone know how to acquire the classified "Hero" customization option for your specialist (the one that secretly appears after acquiring everything else)?
