might i recomend droping the SPAS if you are having trouble CQB with G18S and switch to m1014 OR AA-12

---

I prefer the SPAS as an all-purpose shotgun over the others, but the m1014 is alright.

Dont ya love how people bitch and complain when other people find something that works. You start getting wtfpawned by someone who has found their niche and all of a sudden it takes no skills. the game would be boring if everyone had the same play style.

I will say g18s aren't as bad as OMA tubing.

Mid-to-short range, brah. Don't put words in my mouth.

My biggest peeve is when you shoot a n00b tube close range at the ground at an enemy and it doesnt explode.

I read they meant for it to be like that. If you're close range, you basically have to hit them with the grenade to get the kill, but it doesn't explode. It acts more like a baseball being shot at your face from five feet away at about 300 MPH.

I hate that two. I started using commando on my Propiper class instead of sitrep for that very reason.

but the m1014 is alright.

All right?

It's the best shotgun on the game IMO. Love it. Also, per a tip from CW, I now use it with extended mags instead of the red dot sight, so I have 6 shells instead of 4. It may be my favorite weapon on the game.

the g18 is unstoppable from close range, and also unstoppable from long range. and apparently unstoppable at whatever range . it should be a killstreak. 25 for a tactical nuke, 30 kills for a g18 clip.

we appreciate the discussion here. The g18s dont exactly make me invincible. But on close quarters combat, itd be dumb to not have my g18s equipped.

Yes, they are powerful. I use SOH/akimbo g18s mostly. Some moments do make me laugh. I have gotten good with headshots on the g18s too, the recoil jump is nice. I like their fire rate ,sound, accuracy, mag length. I bling on akimbo extended mags or FMJ if i am feelin like pissing off a lobby of those such as yourselves.


i did not know i was pissing ppl off so much using g18s. i will now use them a lot more.

In your scenario, you're letting "someone get on top of you" and getting killed. I, and many others, play the same games you're playing, and deal with akimbo G18s, OMA/Danger Close, etc., and we do just fine.

It's not what they're using, it's you.

---

You can't cover every entry point to your location unless you are camping or have competent teammates (which isn't always the case).

I do fine, too. I am just saying that those weapons are annoying and OP. I die by any other weapon, and I accept that someone bested me. If I get g18ed by some dude who is running around and randomly comes across me, or get tubed from across the map over and over, I'm going to be a little pissed about it.

I agree that g18s in the hands of a good player are more deadly than when used by noobs. More power to you if that's how you like to lay down the pwn. They just annoy the shite out of me.

This kinda gets back to my original question. Maybe it IS worse on PC than consoles. I see SO MANY people running around with them, and then there's the tubes... OMG THE TUBES

aww cmon bruh now you say this... You should be expecting the mortar by now man... If people are always going to run to the same spot (A/C) 9/10 times, and that spot can be hit by mortar, and they keep dying, its their fault. not the tuber.

---

That I understand. I'm talking about random tubes all over the map from multiple dudes that have some clue of what they are doing. You're just going to die randomly and there is nothing you can do about it.

I also need to mention that I play pretty much all domination so the tubers know exactly where to drop a bomb when losing points. Tubing is pretty lame in domination.
