What games have the best shotguns?
Metro
fear
>>385676249
splatoon 2
clash blaster op
>>385676310
by far the best
Flak Cannon is also worth noting
>>385676249
as shitty as the game is the shotgun Kitsume has in lawbreakers is fucking fun.
>>385676283
my nigga
gears of war
gnasher only. sawed-off cucks need not apply
Marathon sucked ass. Terrible level designs.
>>385676249
I like how Half Life 2's shotgun pellets don't turn into harmless marshmallows after ~5 feet like most modern shooters. It had some satisfying range.
>>385676249
Not fucking Marathon that's for sure
Sounds like shit and it's weak as hell
Shame because it's easily the most stylish out of the four games in the image
Turok 2
>>385676249
Turok rage wars
Shame nobody here never played it
TF2 easily.
>>385676249
Bulletstorm
Doom, of course, but Warframe is a close second. Tigris, Sobek, Hek, Boar Prime, Strun; all just have that nice OOMPH to them, with a sound file to match, and they ain't no close range pocket punch no... There's a reason many consider them the best snipers in the game. So damn satisfying.
The most practical weapon ever in a video game.

Soldier of Fortune 1
it's like the barrel was full of coins, dirt and a few screws and bolts
Blood shotgun goes at end.
>>385677221
half of it is game's gore system
>>385676249
MW2 akimbo 1887s pre-nerf
Most broken shit ever.
Killing Floor
>>385677172
This and BF3+4
Nice sound, good attachments.
Gnasher.
Red Orchestra 2, by far.
Unironically it's Battlefield 3, just for the sound.
>>385677172

House of the dead 3
>>385676249
Half-life 3. I used it almost exclusively
>>385677946
>tfw sniping snipers with them
get rekt wookies
>>385676834
The shotguns are one of the best weapons in the game. Each of the pellets does a good bit of damage and it groups pretty decently at range.
>>385676249
Insurgency.
You just shot at generally right direction at short to medium distance and scored. Most fun I had in video game period.
>>385676249
Definitely Marathon. Nobody will understand the pure joy of dual wielding double-barrel shotguns.
PUBG

REEEEEEEE ANON IS HACKING 500m HEADSHOTS

BF4 after they were buffed.
the M26 mass in BF3
>>385679263
shotguns in BF4 are retarded
25m 1 shot kill with buskshot
>>385677946
I'll get hate, but the trench gun in CoD:WaW was satisfying as hell.
>>385676249
I really like them in Rising Storm Vietnam

New Vegas's riot shotgun

BOSCO and the Bear Killer. That's it. Everything else is junk.
BOSCO one-shots basically anything with a human-sized head, and the Bear Killer handles literally everything else.
how about the outdated meme shotguns?
>>385682314
Tf2 has some really great shotguns, i just wish either they spread or range would be better.
Wrecking shit with the panic attack or frontier justice is fun as fuck.
>>385676249
Halo 1 and project reality mod.
>>385678273
Time travel confirmed.
>>385676392
flak cannon gets my vote
But Marathon sucks.
>>385685881
I'm sorry, but double revolver shotguns will never suck.
>>385683145
I'm sorry you have inferior taste

>>385686598
>>385686659
Disgusting
>>385686957
>>385686429
I like the shotguns in the game but I hate the fucking reload animation
>>385687191
>>385686957
FO4's version of the combat shotgun will never leave the shadow of it's predecessor and so will be nitpicked unto eternity for the faults that it has and never be appreciated for the faults that it corrected.
>>385679371
Shotguns should have like 40~ m of effective range, only sawed-off shotguns are for extremely close range
>>385687191
I forgive the animation, mostly because the sound is so satisfying.
>Duke Nukem shotgun
That thing was almost as bad as the starter pistol in terms of tedium to use. The only thing worse was Blood's shotgun, but that gets a free pass since it's horror.
>>385687542
ive never read a more disgusting post in my entire life. I hope you get necklaced by a band of roving negroes
>>385687542
Blood's shotgun is, OBJECTIVELY, the best video game shotgun EVER.
>extremely fast
>near instant reload
>can fire one or two barrels
>good sounds
>Akimbo turns you into a killing machine
>>385676249
>Marathon.
>>385677346
awww yeah
Half life 2 had a great feeling shotgun, Halo's shotgun didn't feel so good but it did it's work
personally i'm not much of a Shotgun guy, i'd rather have a good rifle or light pistol, for versatility's sake
>>385676249
Halo 1 shotgun.
That shit could shoot banshees out of the sky, and snipe flood across the map. OP as fuck. Plus that firing sound that sounded like 10 hammers hitting anvil simultaneously, and that thick fucking rack of the next round?
>mfw
>>385685881
Regardless of your opinion of the game, the shotguns were amazing.
>>385676376
the brellas are the shotgun equivalent though and those aren't out in multiplayer yet

Back in college, I worked on Mod for CS:S to make weapons handle more realistically. I calculated damage by projectile weight x velocity. I cant remember what exact formula I used but all guns felt like they should. Shotguns spread 1" every yard so at 100 Yards or 1.33HU every 48HU. So at say 100 yards you could still hit but it was unlikely. Unless you were using rifled slugs.
Combat was extremely satisfying, everyone who played on my server said that it just felt right. I remember that I was so proud of my work that I spammed forums of different up and coming FPS games to pester them into adopting my system. Nobody did. I wish I had more talent to model and code because I'd make my own game to showcase my system.
>>385695256
What was your mod called? Have you thought about applying to work on a game like Squad or something like that?

I didn't name it. I just ran it on my server.
I dont like squad. They went too far down the milsim route for me. I did play project reality for a while, but the current devs ruined it so I stopped playing it like a year ago.
I have zero industry experience. All I did was edit some files around and viola it miraculously worked for me. So the chances of me getting a job are slim to none.
I remember Rainbow Six Siege having pretty nice shotguns. I liked SAS' version, Thatcher with a shotgun and a pistol was my main.

The Promethean shotgun from Halo 4 was pretty good.

Metro Last Light's double barrel and revolving shotguns were really satisfying

Hitman Absolution has by far the best shotgun in any game but no one cares about that game
>>385679203

What games have the best feeling guns?
>>385677614
Gears will always be one of my favorites for movement and gun feel alone
>>385686659
How does this gun work
>>385676249Resident Evil 1 and 2
Why do normies always scream about shotguns being overpowered? Maybe if you didn't decide to sprint around every corner at full speed you wouldn't get 1 shot by a shotgun.
>>385676249
Planetside 2 sure liked to fuck a fucker with shotguns. Dunno if you'd call that "best" or not.
Performing a deadman's run on the flank of some enemy infantry line, getting in and wiping the entire line of vanU fucks with a Jackhammer was certainly delicious gaming moments. But dunno you'd call the Jackhammer the best shotgun in that game.
>>385701507
For me it's cod4. It's brain dead easy to aim and shit but the hit detection sounds in that game just made it feel so good.
Stick Arena.
>>385701507
Probably Doom 1/2, to be completely honest. Halo:Reach comes as a close second only because the DMR is so satisfying to use
