You fail to realise graal isn't real life

I actually don't. But I know that a shotgun was created in real life. By definition, a smoothbore gun for firing small shot at short range. The shotgun in game at the moment is not designed to resemble the mechanics of an actual shotgun. It is just an area of lack of design and element.

All I am saying is that I believe my proposed shotgun mechanics will benefit the gun variety in the game and make gun-fights overall more interesting and different. They will resemble more of what a shotgun rather is rather than just any plain old rifle.

Nice try at shooting me down, but it just shows your own ignorance and your lack of experience on public forums, graal, manners, and social interaction.  

ok so I agree some shotguns should stack damage but for what you are wanting in that case the damage of each bullet would have to be reduced down to where if every bullet hit it does no more than 10 damage. that means each bullet doing like 1-3 damage.  

10 small pellets shot from the shotgun. Extremely high spread. Each dealing one dmg. Slow-Medium fire rate. Low freeze. That is how a shotguns should be. They are meant for speed close quarters combat.

I agree with everything here but the freeze. Shotguns are definitely waaayyy up there in recoil lol  

I really dont see why we can't have this, but we can have the Rone Gun, which if dual does 24 dmg!!! Now that is op. And it is fast. Unacceptable.  

the thing is in graal the more spread a gun has the better it is to be further away from a person. that goes against what shotguns should be no? even if each only does say 1 damage still better to let your opponent have no chance at hitting you and stand far away and let the spread deal with it rather than go closer to get a bit more damage. also we dont have shotguns firing 10 bullets with massive spread because the amount of spread required to make 10 bullets all seperate and not just stack on top of each other is huge. right now shotguns perform their roll in the game and i don't see a real reason to make a huge change to the existing ones at least.

The shotguns currently are lacking. Take it or leave it, the poor design is being brought up here so I would say they aren't really preforming their role like they should.  

Shotguns currently are worth NOTHING. They can't do crap.. This what they should be..

There are other ways to creating a shotgun attack design, so giving up and treating it like a rifle is just hindering your gameplay possibilities. Even if it is just 5 bullets that deal 2 damage are fired. I am not dictating the exact design they should get, I am just saying which path is the obvious right one and which path is the lazy and lacking one. It is a birds eye view shooter, it should have some accuracy to shooter mechanics.

I would understand if this would not be a #1 priority in current development, but it shouldn't be signed off as "preforming its role adequately".
