Did they remove the shotgun from A. Fortin's locker in the update?
Ever since the update, I am not seeing a shotgun in Fortin's locker anymore. It used to be there in every other playthrough I have had, alongside the one you get from the Roman Tunnels.

While it is not the biggest deal in the world, it was nice to have a chance at getting a second shotgun if you were lucky. And I don't recall seeing them mention removing it in the update.

I am about 7 playthroughs (across all difficulties) in without seeing it in the lockers. Really bad RNG maybe?

Well since the game is randomly generated you might have been lucky but try checking what changes they made in the update they might have removed it

I obtained it from the locker just yesterday, updated and all.

I played through the game once on hard and only found the shotgun on Toussaint.

That's the second shotgun that always spawns no matter what.

There is another one that can appear in the lockers, namely A. Fortin's. But for some reason it hasn't been spawning for me lately on any of my playthroughs

The shotgun inside A. Fortin's locker is scripted to appear in every playthrough (In any difficulty) after completing the game at least once.

If you used to see the shotgun in said locker, I'll presume you already finished the game once.

Did you try to :

- Fully complete a playthrough again? The update may have broken/reset the fact you have completed the game once in order for the second shotgun to appear.

- Delete all the files in the game's directory and verify them? (Right Click on Amnesia : The Bunker > Local Files > Browse > Delete everything in the game's folder > Verify Integrity of Game Files) (So it will freshly reinstall everything back, and potentially fixing the issue if it's related to game's files. You won't lose your progress/saves, nor your settings, do not worry. The only flaw is that you must reinstall the game, obviously.)

If none of above works, then it's indeed possible that is an issue caused by the update, and Frictional Games will probably fix it ASAP.

That makes a lot of sense. It is probably just broken atm. I will try reinstalling and doing another playthrough and seeing if that fixes the issue.
Reinstalling fixed the issue

Pretty sure it only spawns in the lockers on easy.
I've played all three and never seen one in normal or hard.

Naw, it spawns in A. Fortin's locker after beating the game at least once. Regardless of difficulty.

Mine was just bugged due to the update and reinstalling fixed the issue.
