Team Fortress 2
The fat scout debate
Look, recently I got the family buisness, and as someone who enjoys fat scout I tried it out. But tbh, I didnt like it, it seems to be a shotgun for people who cant aim stock, so they use this is better there chances. I guess itd make a good combo with the KGB, but I play fat scout for the novelty of being a giant fat sucking russian man blasting everyone in the ass with a shotgun. So, what are your personal opinions on the weapon? I suppose im viewing this seriously, probably shouldnt do it for a meme loadout but still! I CARE DAMNIT

You can survive engagements with multiple enemies longer with the increased clip size. I'd say that's pretty valuable for a Fat Scout.

In my time using the family business, I personally do not like it because of how superior the stock shotgun is to it. The family business's firing speed open up a bigger window to miss because you have less time to aim at the enemy after every shot, which can throw you off. This ultimately leads me to making more timed shots which makes the firing speed irrelevant, considering I never hold down the firing button on any single shot weapon.

That's a whole new can of worms I don't want to open. The Panic Attack makes me sad. It use to be interesting, but because the concept didn't match the name of all things, people complained. When people moan loud enough, Valve climaxes and gives them what they want.
It's alright, the Family Business is. Quite fun to get a crit kill with the KGB and mowing down dude after dude after dude with crits on. Shotgun is good for those who prefer consistency, but the Panic Attack are for those Fat Scouts that wore the Marxman: pretty weird.

Sandwich is superior. Sorry.
The tomislav does have one upside, if you hit all your pellets at point blank you will do more then stock. This is really only useful for trolldier if you hate trying to kill hoovies

We wanted a useful shotgun, and now we have the best shotgun in the game. It even outperforms the Scattergun now.

FTFY

Seriously, thinking it's the best because of fixed bullet spread and faster reloading/firing speed is really stupid.

Watch these two videos and compare how both shotguns act.
