Shotguns and last stand

I like to use shotguns a lot, and one of the most annoying things about it is when i shoot someone, who then drops into final stand and shoots me before i can pump and fire again. i know the mw3 is unrealistic, but in real life, if someone shot you at point blank range with a shotgun, there wouldn't be enough of you in one piece to lie on your back and shoot a gun. i hate final stand anyway, but i think that you shouldn't final stand someone with a shotgun. it puts you at too much of a disadvantage, because you won't be able to fire again right away with most shotguns. i want to know how everyone else feels about this, and if anyone agrees with me.

    I don't see a problem with it. Do like Second Chance from Black Ops, and let Shotguns bypass it. While we're at it, Shotguns should also bypass DMH, and Sniper Rifles too (since the point of a Sniper is a 1hko).

      One of those things I think we will disagree on. I do not think any weapon class should ever be able to bypass a perk, or death streak for any reason.

       

      Might as well give run-n-gunners and those that use extreme conditioning the ability to move fast enough to dodge any ksr at that point.

    If you use SOH on your shotgun class switching to your secondary is always possible and maybe quicker than having to pump the shotgun

    Headshots, Knifes and Explosions already bypass it.

     

    They could change it though. I suggest that, whenever you enter Final Stand, you will have that stunned Stealth Bomber effect, like in Co-Ops mode. Would make it harder for the victim to survive mid-long range encounters. Also, it would be harder to turn around so much, so any Rusher can simply run around.

    Re: Shotguns and last stand

    I wouldn't mind it bypassing final stand or DMH. You are already disadvantaged enough while using a shotgun, so why not give a small favor to shotgun users. I know that I've had to shoot someone 4 times with a Spas 12 with damage at close range before(three shots to get him to final stand, one more to finish hime off). If he had been a halfway competent player, I certainly would have died.

    Re: Shotguns and last stand

    I dont get why the knife should bypass it and shotguns wouldnt. I mean, the knife is like a shotgun that actually kills in one hit AND aims for you..

     

    @spur: Yep, thats why I have given up on that turd of a gun and use the USAS now. Its still bad against competent players, but you do have ~3x the chance of killing em. Can you believe it does more damage than the SPAS at close range? LOL IW.

      I can agree that knifes should not bypass it either. No weapon should be able to bypass it for any reason ever.

          No not trolling at all. No weapon should ever bypass a death streak, or a perk ever in the game. So deal with it. Just beacuse you choose to use a certain weapon does not mean you should get special treatment in how the game reacts to you using that weapon.

           

          It would be about as bad as saying if I use a RPG it should kill you even if I am 20 feet off to the left or right of you because it is a massive explosive so I sould get a easy kill beacuse of it.

           

          It would be about as stupid as saying that I should be able to run through lmg spray from 40 feet and knife you just because It is not fair you are using a lmg.

           

          So no they do not need to make any of the weapons bypass any of the deathstreaks.
