"Im tired of people saying quickscoping is cheating. Come on really how is it cheating its called learn how to do it or just shutup already."
Why would we want to learn to do something that's a cheap trick?
That's all quick-scoping is, a cheap trick.
My boyfriend who has been trained with sniper rifles (though not his primary MOS) and has friends who are snipers and they get laughs out of anyone who they see that has "sniper" in their gamertag or on their calling card who is only quick-scoping. Because those people are NOT snipers and what they do is an insult to real snipers and they should never use the title if all they do is QS. All they are doing is using a sniper rifle to do a cheap trick, that does not make them "snipers". I'm not saying a few who QS may not also be able to really snipe, but most in this game who QS don't and would get seriously owned if you challenge them to a game of real sniping where the rules said they can only snipe legitimately and not QS.
When people call QS'ing cheating I don't think they mean that the person is cheating in the game the same as someone who is using a modded controller or something similar, I think they simply mean that QS'ing itself is "a cheat" to the game itself, not that the person is actually cheating by doing it. As in it's a cheap loophole in the game.
Yes, I do agree the shotguns are overpowerd and non-consistant, mainly because of the one-shot kills to the limbs, as opposed to the head or torso. The same way a couple of the snipers are. Shotgunners practice running by hipfiring at your feet so they don't even have to stop sprinting, see it in countless games and it's one of the top 2 things I hear people in lobbies complain about, the other being the QS'ers. I was in a lobby last night where the ending kill was someone getting shot in the FOOT with a DSR-50 one time and it killed him instantly, stupid.
The shotguns and snipers are the only guns in the game that do this, thought he Combat Axe also does a one-hit kill to lower body but due to it's nature and the fact you can't repeat it without picking it up it's not an issue.
No gun in this game should be a one-shot kill to the extemities unless they all are and that's the only nerf that the shotguns need, just take away one-shot kills to the lower legs and feet and they will work the way they should. Even the stats guides say thats how them and sniper rifles SHOULD work, but they don't.
