the sense of accomplishment when i finally kill someone with this gun

First guy was a console player, pretty much all you need to know there.

No clue with the second guy.

imo shotguns are only good when other players are using them. They are so widely inconsistent that they aren’t worth using. I’ve had times when I’ve headshot someone 3m away and scored 12 damage, while other times I just randomly throw out some buck shot at someone like 50m away and somehow score 89 damage 1 hitting with from full HP.

Out of all the weapons in the game, shotguns are the worst for absolutely ragebaiting myself when using them. I avoid at all costs.
