How many more topics do we need to create to NERF OR REMOVE THE SHOTGUNS?

I mean seriously, EVERY SINGLE fight ends with some noob shotgunning the whole squad, because they are too OP, no aiming required, no precision required, just point to a rough direction and that's it...

Bro chill its a shot gun. That means its a close range gun that should win at a close range. Why do u expect a longbow to beat a mastiff.

    @CrashA321 you can out DPs a shotgun with an r99 , don't miss your shots then. But a shot gun is more proficient in close quarters. An r99 has more versatility for longer range then a shot gun. People need to learn how the game works and how gun works before yelling at the devs everytime something happens to them

      Look, I know how this game works. Shotguns were fine up until season 5. Then we got that cancer mastiff and everything wend down in the drain. YOU might need to learn how games work, and what is an imbalance. Why people use shotguns all the time? Because it's easy, thanks to the game mechanics, it's pretty easy to jump on someone's face, and you can't avoid getting face-to-face with your enemy. This is how the game works, and this is why shotguns have too much advantage. How come every other game have balance regarding shotguns vs. every other weapon except Apex. If I want less than a second TTK from body shots, I'll play CS:GO. Why is it so hard to understand?

        @CrashA321 it is possible to avoid having cqb fights face to face, play characters that promote mid range fights. Or use weapons that are effecient to prevent them from moving up on you.
        The shot guns are meant for heavy damage close range, it's up to you to play differently, you wanna rush point blank you'll pay the price.
        You put yourself in an apepable position, you pay the price.
        I'll say it again, stop blaming devs for your miss fortunes and modify your game to counter shotguns if that's a problem for you. It's a common gun (shot guns) in every game and is an one shot insta kill point blank. The fact that it takes 2-3 shots is already a good balancing act. A shot gun is a death sentence in cqb , learn from it.
