Shotgun is best nerfed for reasons like you going 100-2 in Mall as Chimera LOLMy Arms Your Hearse said:
I havent used it much but it does look really weak, maybe just a lil more damage but I wouldnt want it like R1 at all. At the end I think shotgun was best when it was last patched. If you were good with the shotgun it didnt stop being useful, if you were just lucky and shot wildly when it was overpowered and disliked it after the patch than idk what to tell ya but it was way better afterwards. I hated rooftops and shotgun whores, and mall lol.

Well, at this early stage, that is the course that is working best for me :lol
Also, I love when people have the radar fully functional (show enemies). I'm a fucking Jaguar stalking my prey with that shit. Most people don't seem to realize and/or care, but it's really easy to rack up the k/d if you pay close attention to the map (lots of left on d pad!). Also nice that it works as Chimera as well. Map + Chicago (subway) = heaven.

i only play co op kinda, and once competetive, i got a shitload of exp and like 32 kills, and the after the game finishes i see 0 everywhere in the stats screen
what is this?
Yeah It shows up like that for me too. It will most likely be fixed by day 1 release, but you still get the exp, it just doesn't show up sometimes.
Did you choose the game from a server list? If you did it was an unranked game.Tiduz said:am i the only one

Why does everyone else on the list show stats then? Its a bug, not a case of unranked vs ranked.

Hmm... I'm really starting to warm up to the Marksman. I'm sure this is by design, but it's pretty much a replica of the battle rifle in Halo. Headshots or it does no damage. Headshots however DESTROY.
A good choice for smaller maps.
Though the bullets have a horrible wide spread. If someone is running perpendicular to your position you can forget it. Seems each bullet does 12 damage/exp.

60 people is too much. I've yet to play an enjoyable 60 person match.
In that stance, this thing looks kinda like a Rancor...Loudninja said:

Played a few TDM matches in the Alleys and there are definitely a few spots where your team can get decimated. In the two back corners there are dead-ends large enough for your team to spawn into but all exits are easily defended by the opposing team (they get to cover all the corners and they get the roofs). If your team isn't working together to punch through then your only hope is that the other team will wipe you all out before you respawn. As it was I spent about five minutes spawning into the alley and getting killed. Out of the top 20 players at games end only 3 of them were from my team. It was pretty frustrating, but at the same time if our team had been working together I think it would have been manageable. Once a few people broke through we started spawning elsewhere.
The moral of the story: You will generally spawn into a group during TDM so that you are never far from action, but it is a good idea to keep a small strike force removed from your main army so that you can maintain a mobile spawn point. If you don't do this then you do run the risk of getting backed into a corner.
As for the Marksman, it is a good weapon, but it seems a bit overpowered for my tastes. The tracking on it is pretty strong so that you get a quick and easy lock even when you don't use the scope. True, headshots are where the real damage comes from, but from mid-far range the thing is a bit too effective. You can snipe all the way down the alleys, or in Orick pretty much straight across the map, and its lock on means you don't have to be as precise as the fareye to get kills.
I personally prefer the carbine (I think it is more lethal at mid-near range then the first game) and love bouncing from roof to roof in Chicago and bombing snipers/marksmen with the 40mm Other than my gripe with the Marksman, I think all of the weapons are very well balanced. The shotgun is a double-barrel then melee killing machine, which in my mind makes it a great close range weapon that offers the opposition a bit of room to retaliate. In R:FOM if someone got close with the shotgun it was over (so long as they had even a modicum of skill).

Had that happen twice in Alleys. Our entire squad spawned in a dead end while the entire other team was all marksman/far eye on top of a building looking direct down on us. Couldn't even fucking move 2 feet without dying. It took about 60 kills before we spawned elsewhere.
