Buttson Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Hey guys never made a request here but I've been thinking of this and I think it'd be really fun. I only have a little bit of experience editing XMLs in this stuff in this game, like perk pts per level and minor stuff like that, how hard would it be to change the shotgun so the pellets/slugs don't dissappear after a short distance, and so the damage falloff is less? Is that something that can be done quickly by editing game files or is it much more complex? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Umm... shotguns are beasts in real life? I do agree though that the devs nerfed the range of the shotgun waaaay too much making them feel useless (especially during blood moon nights). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buttson Posted March 10, 2020 Author Share Posted March 10, 2020 Never actually used one IRL but my armchair analysis tells me yes they're beasts And yeah, I've always wanted a game that has the shotties true potential instead of making it useless past ~10m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazz Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 In a crowd situation shotguns - with their modest fire rate - have higher DPS than an M60. We don't want everyone to be running around with the One Best Weapon in the game. =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reload speed is too slow (for blood moon) and their range is hilariously bad... it might as well be considered a very loud melee weapon. I actually prefer the 9mm pistol over the shotgun. Also, does the DPS take reloading into consideration? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buttson Posted March 10, 2020 Author Share Posted March 10, 2020 Totally understand the balancing reasons, especially since they don't use brass. Doesn't mean they wouldn't be a blast to use with a buff though maybe then I could play on insane difficulty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
