1887 shotgun severely underperforming

[SuperDS64]

Aside from the abysmal reload, I'm finding less and less reason every day to use this over the ARs when its DPS is staggering behind its firerate and consistency in CQC.

suggestion: firerate increase plz, and actually have ADS narrow the choke so it's more effective at medium range. There is no beneficial reason currently for ADS for this gun that you can't already do with hip fire.

It's the best weapon on medium right now. And medium is meant to have the worst primaries anyways because its a support class.

every class has support and combat options youre only saying its a support class because light is used solely for quick cash stomping because embark made them the strongest class in uncordinated fights. when was the last time you saw a light consistently mark enemies

Suggestions : Change crosshair to an actual shotgun one, increase damage slightly and add Headshot multiplier like in every other game

the gun has abysmal range. Abysmal damage drop off and is off no use against any team using meta weapons, which sucks because it IS fun to use.

they need to seriously think about the balancing on the game.

I'm definitely not "pub stomper good", but the shotgun is still terrible outside of catching opponents off guard and getting first strike. Simply way too slow for longer engagements. Miss once and you're basically done if you don't have cover, or the off chance the guy you're engaging has really bad aim.
Very much a noob killer weapon if the stars align, but you could be doing much more work with any of the ARs.

all weapons are bad if you dont get them with the pants down.

And yet this is a game where certain weapons are obviously better than others. What point are you even trying to make when you fail to explain yourself and your "experience" is "I've seen it do damage".

man shotguns are kind of the easiest weapons on any shooter cause you pretty much dont have to aim. learn to use it as it is or try another guns, another class and so on. nobody cant help you with that.

You're free to gain "experience" with M 1887 yourself too.
Only made this thread after weeks of throwing stuff at the wall trying to expand M builds and strategies for a clear trend to be present. And you being ignorant isn't going to change what the game's putting out, only the devs can do that.

lol. sorry, english isnt my native laguage so i dont know how to express myself. at least on this thread i havent posted anything with bad intention. but i have seen players destroying entire teams with med shotgun. i had tried med shotty myself and i havent done anything closer to that so i guess its skill related. for me its scary thinking they can buff shotguns in general knowing what people that are good using it.
