xxEvoStarxx · November 2010

Anyone out there use Shotties in SnD? I have reccently started to as a support role. Does anyone have an strategies they would like to share.

rush, use box damage to your advantage, dont go anywhere long...

Use a Deagle as a Secondary for long range situations.

I disagree on that, I say use Anaconda because it is silenced over distances and has better accuracy.

Try play more as GR as you can camp better.
Perfect example of this is on EE, where you rush straight to mid and stay behind blue door.
Rarely will BL check there.

camp and jump out at people as you hear their footsteps

If you have good headphones and know good camping spots you can do pretty good with it on GR.

Same for BL, if you have good gamesense you can flank them and get atleast 2 frags from their back. Trust me I've done it to mess around in semi-serious scrims against good clans and it does work. It's so unexpected that it works.

I have noticed that I am ususually good for 2 kills a game, but then die. Which is fine with me because i did my part for the team. I just havent really run into many others who use shotguns in SnD, but then again I only Pub and i cant explain half the crazy stuff i see in Pubs.

rush mid...........

AUGarithm · November 2010

With a shotgun, you should NEVER (based from my experiences):

• Attempt to kill any foe by shotgun means from long range.
• Stay in intersections.
• Make a direct assault (in other words rush straight forward into enemy lines)

It's easy when you can see people through walls...

Have a m700 follow you for support.

Anticipate where their movement and ambush them! They cant do anything if they are up close. You cant shoot anyone mid to sniper range! Its kinda tricky to do depending on the map. Patience is also the key to be a shotgun wielder. If you can gun down a m12 and scar light totting b@st@rd with a shotgun, lemme know. I m still trying to do that at the momement. Let me warn you now. You re gonna die! A LOT!

Practice on TD maps first before you do this otherwise its gonna be a LOOOONG waiting game in snd.

MrShad · November 2010

If you see a guy at a long distance, go hide til' he gets close. And you can jump while shooting without a lot of accuracy being lost.

Camp beside a box/wall and when you hear footstep, jump and shoot :x

Viscaria · November 2010

its not called a boomstick for no reason! either camp and jump out and go BOOM, or rush and go BOOM BOOM BOOM.

OT: camping with a shotty is a good tactic, close range youll have the advantage but you'll get called a noob. rushing to any point where close combat is a frequent occurance and get 1+ kills and you'll get called a hack.

either way its a win win situation.

strategically, as a support role, you'd probably have more luck with a LMG. shotty is fun, but you can't play serious unless you frequently low ping and have pretty good reactions....

xxEvoStarxx · November 2010

Thanks all for the advice. Just seeing if i was on the right, and it looks to be so.

Japansoldme · November 2010

Use smokes and rush.

MrEdgarPro · November 2010

Yeah If you are playing ANY SnD map with 2 entrances to one of the sites, just pick a spot near the site near the entrance and camp. Make sure that that spot isnt a frequently checked spot though.

Smoke smoke smoke.

Smoke and rush through smoke
Smoke and camp ... inside, beside, or behind the smoke (works best on TD). Use the shotty's spray ability to your advantage.
Smoke and flank around smoke (smoke as distraction)

Jump on boxes, cars, etc to gain temporary height advantage. You're up close anyway, so jumping has little to no disadvantage.

I DISagree on that, Anaconda loses more damage over range!
