Yes! I have the expansion! Thank you so much for your help, Ilparazzo! I'm setting up a new character as we speak. Will get back with the new character details in a bit.

Congrats! I hope we're going to see you in this weeks Survival.

You betcha! Though I have to start lvling everything again :(. Oh well, I'll put priority on Assult rifles, Monomania and Sniper Rifles first.

Should I create a male or a female character? Decisions, decisions...:D

Their yells are more annoying and you have to level every skill again. Plus your current stats are petty good.

AGAINST!

Too late. Already created a female character ;p

New character name is MeiLing1988 and it will my primary character until KONAMI finally enables the shop for the rest of the world.

Btw I've noticed something...Everytime I play with you guys we generally encounter players that are either mediocre or on the same level as us. When I'm playing alone I always run into characters that are kicking my ass all the way to Kingdom Come.

Got 3 kick request today because of the shotty. They don't like being put on their backs with legs spread ready for my second load.

All were clanners too. Fucking children. One guy call Tote, especially. Couldn't stop crying 'shootgon lamez skilz kik chater.'

I can see level 3 is going to be pretty spectacular.
 
euros stop crying over the shotgun, if I get blasted I'm aiming and shooting from the floor. Even lvl 3 isn't as bad, if I was better at assault rifle, the shotgun+ 3 guys would be crying.

Also, remember than distance plays a factor, if some idiot fires the shotgun from too far away, they're only going to nick you with buckshot. Shotgun is really a nuisance in the tunnels and ambush alley.

So did they buff the shotgun? I ran into two shottyguys today on MM but they were no real challange against AssaultRifles.

trying to improve my game so did some tip searching and I'm sure most people know these things but thought i'd post them as may be useful to some....

If someone is spawn camping, while on the weapon selection screen, press Select and the weapon screen will disappear, then look around with the right stick, when you spot someone, press Select again then Start and while your invisible you should be able to line them up and take them out
Equip the cardboard box when climbing ladders to avoid getting caught out by magazines placed at the top. Also it's possible to throw grenades while climbing so you're not totally defenceless if someone is stood at the top shooting you.
In TSNE, saluting will make you almost instantly invisible even when equipped with a weapon

Woohoo maxed out all my blues.

Knife, Hawkeye and Sniper are the only skills I see where I'll have to dig deep, not so much Hawkeye because I've started to use FPS mode more.

Not sure about the aiming from the floor business. The guys i came across last night got the second hit in before the animation allowed me to go into aim.

Which is why i'm trying to get proficient at it. I can see a lot of ragequitting from frustrated players because they get knocked to the ground with the first shot and can't retaliate before the second load is swimming in their wombs.

I've "discovered" the shotgun pretty recently. After being on both sides of the barrel, I've gotta say it's an awesome weapon with a steep drawback: range. Its main advantage is definitely the stun affect it has; in addition to the knock-down effect. My play-style with the AK or M4 is much different that the one I employ for the shotgun.

Went a couple rounds 1 v 1 against a very capable M4-armed Nozdeuce a couple days ago. Shotgun users have a lack of range to work with and because of this must learn to be patient and stealthy. Use corners, use tight spaces. Any shotgunner that plays like they're carrying an assault rifle isn't doing it right. Shooting from a long range against an carbine-carrying opponent is silly and will get you killed (unless it's part of a lure/trap, but that's another story. Sorry Noz. ;) ).

I'm sure Wasabi can write books on the subject. :lol

I think it's to do more with the length of the reaction of being stunned that makes it so frustrating, stun animation needs to be cut in half.

Speaking of animation, I was in a CQC room and I kept getting grabbed after I grabbed them, and sometimes grabbed from a fair distance.

Do I hear lag?

Well if you get shot in the back, you are fucked, no doubt about it. But I've been knocked down at close proximity, but pressed L1 almost instantly and fired back. It's usually a non-issue for me. I dunno, I get lucky facing other shottys as well, I've pissed off other shottys cause I usually catch them by surprise. This is with the 870 Custom, as well, not the 8000 DP Shotty.

In my experience, the saiga is useless as long as you can use the m870 decently.

I don't know what to make of it, then. These were in the face shots, i could never recover quick enough to get the crosshair active. pain in the arse. Just played a few rounds with Dazed and Dave and was on the other end of shotty hell. Knock a guy down from the front (popping out of cover) and get the second shot off before the stun animation finished and run away with full hp.

Possible discrepency between regions? Or just lag?

[edit]alos came across another Wasp Unit traitor in the form of EvoGT. He cited bad management for leaving. Big words for dumping one clan for another without any word or notice. Supposed to be buddies in this thing.

Funny, ive never seen these "traitors" online. Probably have below 20hours played anyway. Well they will come crawling back after a few Survival weekends.

I am taking a break. Survival mode is so great makes teamwork so effective, now to go back to fighting each other doesn't seem to appealing. I am taking a few days off, should be ready for survival round 2.

Evogt was from the time of the old beeunit, so I guess he was right about the management thing. Haven't played with him in a while too, thought he stopped playing.
