Are Breaker shotguns imbalanced?

[x_ChaOs_x]

When i and others stated this on another tread some 50% voted sg's are fine......So I have a challenge for you:
Call 6 of the best players in gunz, split them into 2 teams, make them play two 30 round town tdms.

Teams 1 and 2.
Round 1:
Team1 all dual breaker shotguns, team 2 without shotguns
Round 2(switch):
Team2 all dual breaker shotguns, team 1 without shotguns

Guess the result...i already did, but lets make it, i want to laugh a bit. It would be even more funny if the no-shotgun team wouldnt also be able to use revolvers.

Make a selection of players with 50- ping to each other

the other team can use rocket + mg/ rocket + rocket another cheap combo GG

chaos...ur trying to fight a losing battle here.

this is how this community is!

K-style is glitched??
60% of gunz players use k-style...change it...and we all go away.
look...its official now...K-style is a style...not glitched.

Shottys are too powerful??
60% of gunz players use dual shotties and spam them....change that...and gunz loses its players.
So I am sure it will stay.

moral : Start spamming BFs and shottys urself...and then see who does it faster :P....OR.....remain and E-styler...and enjoy the game with strategy, aiming.

aiming hahahahaha...guessing game mirite?

[filya1]

if its guessing...how come I hit 6-7 out of 10 times I fire by pistols?

and guessing is what I call shottys shoot and hope 6-7 pellets hit

[sinisterone]

Wrong section.

[FatedHour]

please 6-7 hit on your screen means they didn't hit xD

[filya1]

yo dude...u have some serious misconceptions about me.
I havent reached lvl 26 without kills.

[FatedHour]

i do not have any misconception about you, just commenting how horrible the lag in gunz is

[x_ChaOs_x]

So, any volunteers?

Must be lev 50, or at least own the best weapons of the types you are going to use

[filya1]

k...my bad. sorry

[x_ChaOs_x]

Still trying to prove breakers aren't imbalanced?

Get a top team to do the challenge.

[x_ChaOs_x]

Gunz is quite a unique game, and its so simple for maiet to change that it's worth trying...

[x_ChaOs_x]

AHahhaahahahaha

No..you dont get it...First you say kstylers will be dissapointed and a lot will quit, what proof do you have?

Even if that were true. Maybe its better to dissapoint half of the current igunz players now and balance the game, than let it stay imbalanced, narrowing player's choices down to shotgun based sets. It may hurt now...but its necessary...
Dammit..this is beta, i like this game, it has huge potential! Why be hostage of 10000 close minded players when they could have 10 times more players <.<

Maiet could easily put in some changes on the next patch, then if players asked again the weapon stats could go back to what they are now...

You say these suggestions will do nothing but "HARM" the community? Do you have any ideia of what is game balance and its importance?

I'd bet that if they did all those changes the number of people playing this game would not only not decrease, but it would increase, many would whine at first, but then they'd be happier with all sorts of new sets made useful!

To all you people who think breaker shotguns are fine, get 2 equally skilled high level teams, make the test!

This is just....Please think a bit before you reply, it's good for you

[filya1]

Its not worth trying. Many K-stylers will be dissapointed and alot will quit. As we all know, k-stylers take up the majority of the players over 50%. Not saying every K-styler will quit. But most will.

So why ruin a game?? Are K-stylers literally holding this game hostage????

Anyways about shotguns.
They are perfect the way they are.They need no extra weight.No lower damage, no higher damage nothing. Shotguns should be kept exactly the way they are.

coz u like spamming them too??

Chaos, Do not cry because you got owned by a shotgun. It takes aim to hit with a shotgun like any other gun, true thats its easier than say rifles or revolvers but with lag like this we got its still pretty damn hard.

have u ever tried killing a k-styler with a rev?? pls try at least once before u speak such ridiculous statements. Aim...lol....whatever.

When the player has to reload, hes almost defenseless for 4 -5 seconds while he reloads both shotguns(Considering it takes what? 2 seconds to reload each?I havn't tested I'am guessing because I use them alot.)

By the time a k-styler is done with a clip from both shottys (spamming them like they do) the opponent is already dead! He gets 6-7 seconds before the respawn to reload in peace!!
And talking about reloading time....pls compare to dual-revs once again.

1.Weight, we don't need any more weight. Shotguns are not supposed to weigh 20 pounds, let alone 5+ MORE weight.

And nor are shot guns supposed to shoot 2-3 times a second!!!

2.Take out the delay glitch(swap shot, reload shot) and you ruin 2 moves used by most k-stylers, if not every single k-styler in this game.

Did MAIET make those moves? no. So who cares??

3.Do less damage. The damage is perfect right now, shotguns are supposed to blow you in half and they don't, thats a plus for you guys.

Same way a single rifle bullet is supposed to kill you!!!!
Imagine that??
