You don't understand.  With the ksg at 35 stock damage the spas and 1887 would almost entirely outclass it.  They would have a very similar reliable one shot range but the spas and 1887 would have a 2 pellet kill to boot which makes the ksg's 1 extra pellet meaning less.  35 stock on the ksg will make it useless by comparsion to the others.

The ksg would be the different pump shotgun.  The spas and 1887 would be long range shotguns but the ksg doing a 2/9 pellet kill would be a very relaible one shot kill.  Maps like seatown and mission would be perfect for the ksg and its good cqc power because since targets are easier to get into the ksg's higher damage range so the spas and 1887 would be less usefull.

I doubt with the rebalance that is coming that the really bad weapons (m16, mp5,pm9.ect...) will remain as bad as they are and will be more competitive with eachother.  With that in mind I don't want to purposefully design an inferior weapon.

The ways that I would differentiate the shotguns if they would just let me go nuts on them would be a little strange and hard to do at this point in the game's life.  The buffs I propose are the most realistic and usefull that I can think of.

yesterday I got put into a UK lobby playing by myself (Central Indiana)  LOL   I think there was one guy from mexico in there too!!!

Mark rubin keeps saying its just a rumor.

People have said that for maybe seven months or so, right?  Look where that focus has gotten them so far.

I wonder where Ghandi went...
