IMHO gazz's idea should definetly be inplented

One question remain.

this has be constructive?

ohhhhhhhh no

maybe a bit, since you got osbrutec vision, but what is the point?

has i say, Each people is Each people, if you like EOTECH, you are ummm let's see, a EOTECH boy, i prefer iron signs, iron sings is for men, no matter the weopow.

Eotech on the weapon in real life, eotech on the weapon in game. Thats my thinking.

Unless range and deviation issues are fixed, fine by me. Currently, you can shoot on the move up to ranges of even 250M and up. And I really mean on the move.

I agree that to make the weapon into a full fledged main weapon the devs might want to review its power, range and deviation (or lack of) ect.

although theres no way the devs are planning on putting a scope on it. it'll probably be an EOtech or irons instead of both. there is no magnification for either of them and they are both for CQC. it would be nice to get the choice though. IRL its a huge advantage to have in EO but in game they would function at pretty much the same level

You're far deadlier if you wield a rifle: in the meanwhile, I enjoy gunning down those shotgun noobs.

Of course I use it only on CQB. But the thing about the shotgun is that you can be surprised and shoot against the enemy. You hit his foot, he's dead. Long range is fairly useless...
But also I think the shotgun in CQB is specially efficient for me (over a rifle) is because of my ping... I can literally waste some 5 rounds at an enemy and he still kills me... The shotgun (that literally just requiers 1 shot at any body part and has virtually no deviation) is actually safer for me.

YouTube - Army's new combat shotgun

this video claims it sofr anti vehicle duties at VCPs etc, which might mean such a anti passenger capapblity should be portrayed

[jbgeezer]

Agreed here, would also love to see a shotgun with eotech on
