Name a more satisfying shotgun to use in a video game
Guess what? You can't
>>384049393
Soldier of Fortune 2.
I'm on tablet, and too lazy to post a video... but it's WAY WAY better than any other game.
FLASHLIGHT!
I've always loved the halo original trilogy shotgun, feels hefty.
>>384049393
Halo's shotty was good shit too, and the popping shields made it look even more satisfying

Wasn't this supposed to be a horror game or something?
>>384051350
Yea I started playing it recently and the only time I got scared was an unintentional moment when a grunt was right around a corner
It's more of an FPS with spooky vibes
>>384049393
Soldier of Fortune. Well, that was easy.
>>384051350
It's supposed to be. Most of the jumpscares are laughable and the only thing that'll really scare you is seeing an enemy you didn't expect and startling you
>>384051350
95% of the time you are shooting dudes.
The rest is jump scares.

My favourite shotgun of all time is the automatic shotgun from Red Faction 1. I do love the fear one too though. Also the original Resident Evil one when you manage to blast heads.
>>384049890
One of my favourite things to do when I was 12 was blast through the library in CE with the shotgun on the hardest difficulty I could manage. I found it funny finding out a few years later that everyone on the internet hated that level because of the repetitiveness.
What are some unsatisfying shotguns?

Does the UT series Flak Cannon count as a shotgun? Because that's pretty fucking satisfying to point-blank wreck someone with.
>>384063249
Yes, there are games where the buttstock's unfolded, but I'm specifically interested in games where you can use the hook. The few times I've seen it depicted with the hook, the stock was folded up. Also, I've never played a CoD game, so my experience with the series is limited.
>>384063438
>most aesthetic shottie?
I'd give that title to the AA-12
>>384064251
It looks like a disgusting hunk of plastic designed in Blender by a 15 year old using it for the first time to make their own Cawwa Doody rip-off.
The hunting shotgun the VC get in RS2 is fucking crazy.
1-shots with buckshot out to 70m reliably as long as you can aim, further if you get lucky, and can take slugs.
>>384064251
I hate the AA-12. I use it in Killing Floor 2 because it's one of the better shotguns but god is it ugly.
>>384049393
underhell.
fear is second though
>>384060230
People don't like badly implemented jumpscares, a well implemented one is fine.
>>384049393
I can't.
Fallout 3 Combat shotgun has a special place in my heart. Fallout 4's double barreled actually feels satisfying though.
The shotgun from Crysis on narrow spread.
Holy shit, why have an assault rifle?
>>384067098
To put a grenade launcher on, duh.

It has some horror elements but i'd say that aside from some scripted spooky scenes it's mostly an action game.
>>384049393
The Last of Us shotgun.
It's amazingly satisfying before you do any upgrades, and each time you upgrade it impossibly becomes more satisfying.
Finished this game today morning and the last thing i expected was a F.E.A.R thread in here. Truly /v/ works as a hivemind.
Game is so good i just restarted the campaingn immediatelly. Aside from the last level with those bullshit ghosts/allucionation parts, the game was fucking incredible. I'm thinking about playing the Expansion games but the fact that they're not canon takes a lot of the fun away from the game itself. I was actually hooked to the story, trying to find out what the fuck happened in the facility you were in.
Might play 2, heard 3 is horrible so i might just watch the cutscenes to find out how the story ends but a friend of mine said they fucked up even that aspect.
>>384071585
is that oc you just made?
>>384065039
MY FUCKING NIGGA
I was wondering if no one was going to mention it
The guns in this game (in particular the shotgun and pistol) were so satisfying to use.
So meaty.
>>384065039
>>384080321
Underhell is easily one of the best Half-Life 2 mods ever made.
The way their shield would give out at the same time they die along with the sound of the gun just made this so satisfying to use in Halo 3 MP

>Two shotting Elites and one-shotting Flood Combat Forms
>Very fast reload time lets you quickly load shells in-between shots
2 and 2's Shotguns were shit though so I'll give those but CE's Shotgun was Elder God Tier. It, the Magnum, the Sniper Rifle, and the Needler are bar none the best and most satisfying versions of the weapons in the series.
>>384079762
EP will always be canon in my eyes. PM is just a fun side show, plus it includes actual operating along with SOF-D.
I still enjoyed 2, even though it changes so much. I think manages the scarier part down better in certain areas than the original, but adds so much it is still completely different. It's expansion, Arrival, was pretty fun too.

>I think manages the scarier part down better in certain areas than the original
The school part is legit scary, i'd argue the scariest part of the F.E.A.R. franchise overall. Aside from that, it has more jumpscares than the original as well.I always got a boner when at some Alma scenes.

An OP supersoldier doesn't really make a very good horror protag.
>>384085901
Yeah sure but that alma crawling in a vent scene got me and the first couple of times she ran across the room into nothingness. It's not like you can hurt or kill her and I think it does a good job of setting up a spooky atmosphere
>>384086256
Yeah but then you just go back to running around killing everything unfortunate enough to cross your path and the tension breaks as you start styling on fools.
>>384049393
>>384085901
>>384085782
You mean the bullshit ghosts? The spooky scripted parts get old soon. Usually they consist of you just walking down a corridor. Sometimes at the end of said corridor you will have to kill some ghosts or allucionations or whatever that do nothing aside from just running torwards you and doing damage.
It gets old pretty fast. By the end of the campaign where the game throws literally dozens of said enemies at the Point Man i just wanted it all to end. Fighting the replica soldiers was much more fun.
Aside from those kinda boring parts, there were some pretty spooky moments with kid Alma and Fettel interacting with the protag.

>>384051350
It's as much a horror game as Doom is, basically. With the occasional stress-inducing element, it's mostly just a fast-paced FPS with very tight gameplay.
Turok 2008
>>384083327
>>384083778
the best part is those fucking medpack chugging faggots can't fucking abuse medpack chugging.
just like in FEAR multiplayer, the burst damage of the shotguns is the counter to all abuses of the poorly thought out healing.
>>384079762
Fear EP is godly. It feels canon since it takes place directly after the blast. Good level design, fun new guns (with zero fucking ammo), extra spookiness. Perseus you can skip but if you want more of the same gameplay in mediocre levels, its okay. Spooky Doors sequence is the best spooky part of the entire series
2 is consolized version of PM. Generic all around and theres no leaning. The enemies are dumb assholes who only know how to flank yet rarely ever try it. Level design always has their movements restricted
3 is AIDs. I dont care what anyone says, 3 is not canon. It just cant be. Even the cutscenes are goofy and poorly done. Fettel gameplay is its only redeeming feature but the game is too consolized to even recommend it for that much
>>384070189
I like doom 3. Sure it has many flaws but it's my favorite doom game. I never liked the original dooms (too arcady). I understand why doom 1&2 people don't like it, but I bet no one would complain if it was just called doom: <insert doom related lore name>
>>384070471

Are the enemies made of glass, why would they die if you power slide under them?
