Striker Spam Is Getting Ridiculous, Buff The Other Shotguns

Why is it in some of my Kill Confirmed games, I find 4-5 people on the enemy team using Striker Shotguns with Damage Proficiency? The Striker is already good enough, you don't need to put a Range or Damage Proficiency on you greedy bastard. Even when I'm far away from them, I still get killed because of the ridiculous Range without the Range Proficiency. I don't know why IW won't buff shotguns, if they don't what variety is the game gonna have? None.
The USAS 12 sucks
The KSG-12 is the WORST SHOTGUN IN CALL OF DUTY HISTORY
SPAS-12 is alright but hit detection ruins it
AA-12 is a straight up joke, The whole clip the kill someone?
Model 1887? Really?
all shotguns need more range, even the Striker. They also need to be more consistent, but this may be the problem with Lag Compensation
I didnt know you could see what proficiency the enemy is using.
AA12, which in real life is a beast, is unlocked at Lvl 24. Faggy game gives it an entire 16 bullets -- for an AUTOMATIC weapon. That’s right, an entire 16 bullets. The real gun can be equipped with a drum barrel giving it up to 28 rounds -- but I know, we're not talking about REAL life. Scavenger isn't unlocked until level 39. You have to run around for 15 levels with 16 bullets and on average it takes 3 shotgun shots to kill a person. LAME. Also LAME is using any shotgun without any power, without any range, and without any ability to restock ammo (which isn't available until level 39). None are true about a military grade shotgun in real life. AGAIN, real life.
The model 1887 is pretty damn beastly i've done pretty well with it without any proficiencies. It's just silly tho every other gun has built in damage buff automaticly but you have to earn it on the shotguns.
Striker seems to be the weapon of choice for Dropzone and can really become frustrating after awhile.
There were obviously going to be weapons that stood out from the crowd as people learned to use them and got more proficient at it.
Instead of asking for things to be nerfed, find the best way to use your fav weapon and get revenge.
Shotguns suck with the exception of the striker. It's like they ran out of time or gave up trying to balance the shotguns versus the other weapons and each other.
The thing I always hated about Proficiencies is that you don't start off with any, so whenever you use a new, unfamiliar gun the game gives you so many handicaps it's always pure hell to use it. This is especially true for the sh*tty shotguns that can't kill sh*t without Range or Damage.
If IW adds a new patch they should make every gun start with 1-2 proficiencies, and make every shotgun start with either Range or Damage.
