All weapons are like farts! Shotguns are terrible, impossible to play with! After the upgrade, they reduced the damage of the guns instead of increasing them in the weaker ones! Bots have become on steroids! In practice, they cannot be completely killed, they shoot through the smoke and kill as if there is no smoke at all knowing in advance! I do not recommend buying this game! You will regret it greatly!

Community ManagerSuan_Agzi Sounds like you've run into a few different things at once here between the shotgun experience, bots, and the smoke visibility side of things.
And for the smoke issue, have you noticed it more when bots are shooting through smoke, or are you seeing it against regular players too? If you've got a specific example or clip, that would definitely help paint a clearer picture of what's happening.
Parts of your post are in two patch notes.
In the Season 3 Community Update (04-30-2026)
"continued improvements to hit registration and Netcode" and
"targeted improvements to soldier visibility" as well as ongoing work on broader visibility systems.
And in Update 1.3.1.0:
"Core Gameplay, Netcode, and Combat Feedback Improvements," including readability improvements and multiple netcode fixes.
I'm curious about the shotgun part specifically. Which shotgun have you been using, and what range are you usually taking those fights at when it feels like it's not getting the job done?
On the bot side, are there certain modes or maps where they seem much stronger, or does it feel that way everywhere you run into them?
Are you playing the wrong game?

I nearly spat my coffee out, so funny.
