That gun was FAR from overpowered. The Spas 12 was close that the Akimbo Models pre-patch were borderline overpowered for secondaries.

As I said the range you were shooting from and connectivity can be an issues. Also how shotguns (minus the KSG) work is also a factor. They shoot out a set number of pellets and each pellets does a set number of damage but that damage decreases over range. If only 1 or 2 pellets hit at long range you will have very minimal damage. Your aim, the attachments you use, and hipfire compared to ADS can make a huge difference. As I said there are many variables.

Range and damage are two things that should never have been on that gun. Plus it needed a capped fire rate.

Hell the Striker had the advantage at close range 9 times out of 10 in every game mode. That gun had some issues.

Maybe the people killing you are better then you with shotguns. You have to be close range with shotguns. KSg is basically a one hit kill because it uses a slug. The 870 is usually a one hit kill at close range because that is how they balance it out for being a pump action. The S12 and the other one (can remember the name) are very rarely going to be one hit kills. There are many variables you have to consider with shotguns. The exact gun it was, range, where you were hit/hit them, and connection.

Maybe because the other person is better then you with a shotgun?

The main problem that came from that video when it was posted was that people watched it and referred to it as "proof that the game is completely broken." Then if someone points out what i said in my other post that person was a "troll, Treyarch employee, or a sheep."

It is one of the reason why I personally think that Youtube has done some serious bad for the COD community. Someone dies when they think they shouldn't have and they watch a single Youtube video and next thing you know they are blaming lag comp without even knowing what it is.

(Sorry if any of this sounds like an attack at you. It isn't I am just pointing out some issues.)

Video has been posted a lot. It is honestly is horrible review on what the poster calls "lag comp." He uses offline play which makes everything not related to online play. He also uses splitscreen which causes lag in its self.

As usual another well put together video.

Getting probation a lot from team killing in Hardcore? Then Hardcore isn't for you.

To my knowledge no new prestiges have been confirmed.

True. I forgot they are God's gift to COD and nothing can kill them.

Here is my question to you because pulling one random clip from one game does not mean something is "broken." Is this a regular occurrence or does it happen once or twice a game. If it happens once or twice a game then it is understandable because you are playing on the Internet and could have a lag spike or two. Not to mention that kill cams are rarely an accurate representation of what happened in game.

Re: Probation

donotreply@activision.com — Mon, 13 May 2013 00:23:11 GMT

If Your Internet disconnects so much that you get probation you don't need to be playing in the first place.

maybe some people want to leave because there are modern or hackers online, or what happened to me once is my little sister was being annoying and turned my Xbox off, that's not right what activision does

There aren't enough hackers to justify leaving multiple games in a row. Maybe one every few thousand games. And that is a big maybe. It takes more then one disconnect or leaving a game to get probation. You have to leave a lot of games or dashboard 2 or 3 times to get it.

Disagreement expressed through multiple lines of slander adressed the opposing party -- without expressing one single reason for why you actually disagree... is not trolling?

I could have sworn that's textbook trolling;
-Adding nothing to the discussion
-Using inflammatory language only ment to disrupt the discussion

I went back through about 10-15 pages worth and find no places where anyone of the "trolls" were just randomly pouting of lines of insult after insult or using inappropriate language.

I did however see spots where people would point out where the OP's videos are not correct or why the can't be used as a reference. I also say several comments of disagreeing and arguing. Not much trolling at all. As Foxxy said nothing anyone was doing was worthy of a ban or anything.

Let me give you an example of what most people see as "trolling."

Person makes a thread about lets say...HC needs more modes. There title is those exact words and there description is something about removing modes from core and adding them to HC.

The first comment may be someone telling the to contribute to another thread and read the CoC because their thread is spam. That is seen as "trolling." Stating the forum rules to someone breaking them is not trolling. The next comment may be someone stating how modes can no be taken from core and added to HC. That is also seen as trolling just because the OP or someone else does not agree.

You claim that Mac is a troll. Others claim that Starbuck, Drew, me and TSD (which he can at times ) are all trolls or work for Activision. I am someone who is on the forum a lot and when I say that I mean my I have this page up on my computer at almost all times. We all get called trolls because others don't agree with us, because they can't face facts and we tell them that, or because we states rules to them.

Agreed which is why me and others try to stick away from this. My comment about people addressing disagreement as trolling was not meant to be directed at you (although that is what I said) but rather at everyone in general.

donotreply@activision.com — Sat, 11 May 2013 18:42:52 GMT

I'm pretty sure that I am one of the people Sharted1ce was referring too. The problem with his definition of trolling (along with many others) is that they see disagreeing as trolling. Just because someone does not agree with you or just because they have a little debate with you does not mean they are trolling.

Freezing can actually be problems with you system itself. And lag....well it is the Internet. Not to mention that everything in Multiplayer is just a bonus and is not guaranteed.
