My favorite shotgun related piece of media is this one bodycam vid of a SWAT raid. Three cops magdump some gigatweaker with handguns and an AR and he keeps stumbling around, and then some fatass cop shuffles to the front of the stack, aims a shotgun, and physically removes the entire head of the perforated suspect with the lazy sluggishness of an elderly cat. Like the entire head of the individual is atomized.

I dislike that guns are "balanced" around arbitrary maximum weapon ranges by just making the pellets or bullets. If I want to plink at some retard 50m away with my shotgun just let me be retarded in peace. People will still seethe about getting one tapped within 8m regardless.

I'm particularly fond of good ol' double barrels myself. Powerful AND skilful by nature, because you can't just spam it willy-nilly. Plus, loading those two shells feels amazing if it's animated right.
>>
>>724850090
>and is only effective at short range
Funny thing is in a /k/ scenario shotguns are basically just fuckin' rifles with buckshot. In any game that treats them realistically you can mince people down the street with a shotgun, since the pellet spread is still liable to shred a target up, and a slug may as well be removing the stereotypes from the equation entirely. Making them so close range that you have to sneeze on someone for the kill is the only thing really keeping them in check.
>>
>>724850246
I'm not fond of how shotguns feel in COD. I'm not expecting a sniper here but I swear to christ I had to physically stuff the barrel down someone's throat to secure a kill.
>>
>>724850286
I can assure you that the person bitching in the original image was probably just a terminal sprinter that keeps running into shotgunners on lobbies and blames the weapon type rather than himself. When you get a good shotgun kill in CoD it's satisfying as hell, but they're so goddamn impractical compared to nearly any SMG or AR that you're basically just doing it for rule of cool or you know what the hell you're doing. The same can be said of shotguns in most modern MP games; unless all guns suck for range besides a sniper, or mobility in the game is absolute obnoxious bullshit, that's on you for letting the pump get within face-destroying range.
>>

Unless the game properly models body armor, and then shotguns cycle back to being useless.

Eh it depends, I know in games like Tarkov that do have armor systems you can absolutely still one or even two tap people in armor if they are wearing shitty protection or you wing them in the neck or the part of their head that's unprotected.
>>
>>724850428
My favourite game for shotguns is Battlefield 1. People were reasonably justified in calling the 10-A overpowered but my god it's one of the most satisfying shotguns I've ever used in a game. Everything about it, from its power to its sound design, is just immaculate. The M1900 double-barrel is also fun as hell too, especially with slugs.

not only do they turn any shotgun into a hunting rifle, which can even bypass some regulations accordingly, but slugs on average are way bigger than the average rifle caliber. so in theory, you just turned that buckshot shotgun into a long-barreled, portable mini-cannon of kinetic pain, at the cost of a lot less overall energy (and thus less range) than a proper rifle round; this bypasses one regulation in hunting zones near populated areas because it carries a lot less risk of carrying a round into a living zone. it also comes with the benefit of versatility: why carry multiple long guns when you can just haul one compatible with multiple shot types?
in practice for a warzone scenario, i can imagine it's not really practical at all to use a shotgun besides for known CQB and breaching in the first place, but slugs would let you restrain the possible local damage considerably.

I think they use slugs for stuff like punching through door locks and hinges.
>>
>>724852270
i assume slug rounds would be much more effective for self defense against large animals like bears, hippos, elephants, tigers, moose, etc, than buckshot?
if all you had was a shotgun and had to rely on it for protection in an area with large dangerous animals, what round type would you use?
i don't browse /k/, i am unaware of the general consensus on this topic
