Shotgun for CQB Stealth Play | Forums

[Kane_sg]

Probably from more than 50 co-op lobbies I joined, I've only seen one player ACTUALLY used Shotgun.

I myself have been wanting to use Shotgun, but which one is the most optimal type for stealth in regards of its range, noise, and damage?

I don't know maybe the spas 12 or silencio

honestly I carry around the super shorty cause it looks cool and forces me to only use one gun (cause it's worthless)

honestly only the spas 12 and saiga 12 can use suppressors so that's not a whole lot to choose from

I think the spas 12 might be quieter since it's not full auto

I know I don't have 800 hours like most of you guys but I have yet to remember a CQC or CQB situation in which a pistol or the M4A1 was not enough for me to use. Don't get me wrong, I love using a shotgun for short fights but it just does not seem to be worth using in WL.

I tried several Times to use a Shotgun. Always returned to my AR a few Minutes later.

Because of their abysmal performance, only useful purpose for a shotgun in this game is to use the super shorty as a substitute for unequipping your second primary, since it has the smallest form of any primary weapon. It is a shame you cant fold the foregrip though...

I tested silenced SPAS last night to break in several camps. So far so good. Range sucks that it's literally pointless since you can just CQC or even safely kill using pistol.

Tried in random co-op as well and always found my target was killed by others before I moved to a better position.


Also as a trivia, when I give a comparison, apparently El Obsequio (boss reward SPAS) has the highest damage among all.

Huh I thought it was the El Cuentista ( boss super shorty) as it can kill out to 60 meters

honestly it's the only shotgun I find that's worth using

+1

Shotguns are cool, but Wildlands offers 90% ranged combat and the CQB stuff it offers really doesn't NEED a shotgun, especially not a suppressed one, that's more or less nonsense anyways, at least in the realm of SOF. They exist, just like extended pistol magazines do...but did you ever see them being used? Exactly...

We have enough nonsensical stuff in the game already, there's no need for more until we finally get some realistic stuff, in my opinion.

Are you my lost twin!?
Exactly what I do, exactly what I think (foregrip).
Hilarious... and sad, kinda.
We have to fool ourselves to "unequip" a secondary weapon. Ugh.
