>>382575519
maybe, but blasting charging kleers the fuck out with that beast feels good.

>>382575742
Flak Cannon is actually better than SSG, it's just in a worse game.

>>382575531
my african american man, that 2 shot was the sex

>>382575531
Good choice.

Wolfenstein New Order autoshotguns deserve a mention.

Marathon 2 Durandal combat shotguns too.

Doom is king though.

Shotguns that scale enemy kickback by pelts hit are amazing, you can get some easy fall damage kills If you crouch and fire upwards on enemies. Lava, acid, acid slime, bridges, crushers, drills, etc; there are many drops spots in Quake2 that made the SS fun to use.

>>382575380
TF2 shotgun and scatter feel and sound alright.

What I am bazzled about is you questioning killing floors shotguns? They are meaty as fuck.

You can launch zombies ridiculously far with in blood by crouching, running up to them, and firing both barrels at once iirc.

For shame anon, we just got voxel and cutscene support too.

Something about the weapons in Quake 2, and to a much lesser extend Quake 1 feel hollow. It's hard to explain, but compared to Doom or Duke Nukem or the original Half Life, weapons don't have an oomph behind them.
Gonna sound game theory bullshit but in other shooters there's a way that the audio, input, and on screen result that just clicks.

Quake 2 has some of the most satisfying guns IMO, and I really don't like Q1 weapons.

The biggest problem with Q2 guns is the lack of low-HP enemies. You just don't get a lot of one-shots even with railgun. Also RL fucking sucks. Hyperblaster and chaingun are amazing, though.

Bungie shotguns are notorious when it comes to the whole "shotgun is absolutely useless past 5 feet" thing. They're savage up close though, I'll give you that.

Q1 feels hollow to you because you take the standart shotgun as an actual shotgun instead of the game's pistol, and the super shotgun as the D2 equivalent instead of the game's regular shotgun.
My guess on why it's this way was to amp up the enemies as "they're so tough you'll need a shotgun to start with"

>>382574228
It has a satisfactory sound but doesn't have the same power as the Doom SSG.

Every enemy in Quake 2 takes a good amount of shots to kill and that kills it.

I think the reason why enemies in Q1 more spongy is simple, they couldn't afford to have Doom enemy counts in a fully 3D game.

Trench guns are always welcome in these threads, no? KF 1 and 2 have very nice trench guns.
Also, Wolfenstein Enemy Territory's shotgun deserves a mention. That thing was pretty fun.

Does half the other shit in the game make sense? No.
Do you care? No.
Why? Becauze it's fucking cool.

Reviving like that is only something that happens if you don't kill a downed played in one of the MP modes iirc Instead of just falling over like in Mortal Kombat, a "killed" player will revive instead.
I forgot the exact causes and I'm just going off memory. Take it with a massive grain of salt.
