300 shotgun kills... worst idea ever

It wasn’t that bad. I hate shotguns and it took me a day.

I don’t know about firing them, but they should probably walk the challenge back a bit. Maybe reduce the required kills to 100 or increase the challenge length to a week.

Currently, games are full of one-shotting 10A users. If I wasn’t doing it too, I would probably be annoyed.

What exactly about my comment is ignorant?

If you look at actual shotgun physics, in real life, buckshot is quite effective up to 50 yards, that’s about 45.72 meters. After that distance it most likely won’t kill you, but you won’t be up walking around either. People are just ignorant at realizing that slugs are essentially a big rifle round that can kill at a larger distance than spread. In bf1, slugs can only kill in one hit up to 48m and it had to be a headshot. So again, explain to me who the ignorant fool is?

If I am able to get 25+ kills in one TDM (a mode I never play) game with the 1900slug (a gun i only unlocked today) then it’s really not that bad and will require approximately 12 games…each game of TDM is what 10-15mins?

oh so this is why ft vaux had even more shotguns than usual.

It happens with both of them. The range is wonky as hell, and absolute shots seems affected by lag more than any other gun out there.

It took you a day of playing, and this is alright because everyone has an entire day to play BF1 exclusively. Jesus. As if anyone wants to play this game exclusively besides tryhards and no lifers.

300 kills is too many for sane people for a stupid machete. I will probably get it, but it’s not something I enjoy doing in such a small timeframe.

Unlocked the Coupe-Coupe.

I really feel dirty now. I promise that i won’t touch a shotgun for a while.

I have a kid and a job, still managed to get it done? You can complain all you want but imo it was semi reasonable for anyone good at the game

Over the weekend too, weekend play is utter garbage on this end, hitreg is out the window and with shotguns too, trolling deluxe.

Gotten 7 shotgun kills in over the last hour and 10 minutes of waiting for games to load and then hitting air. Actual gametime from the 1 hour 10 minutes, 18 minutes, the rest stuck in queues…

Managed 183/300 today. I usually use the 1900 factory/slug when I use shotguns which are my least used weapon type. The 1900 just has a fun playstyle similar to the 5 round SLRs where you are a powerful 1v1 but then you have to hide to reload.

Today I decided to try out the 10a Hunter. My goodness. How is this gun even allowed to exist? And this is AFTER the nerf to OHK distance? This gun is a beast in close quarters. You feel borderline invincible running around tearing up anyone who decides to get in front of you. It is also really consistent I found. More so than the 1900. This is close to the Hellreigel in ease of use I feel. I love it. And unlike the Hellreigel, I dont think anyone will disagree that this is far and away the best shotgun in the game

The 1900 factory is better in that it does roughly the same damage and you can take the follow up shot a lot faster.

I tried but it’s just not my cup of tea, i feel like i’ll get burned out on the game if i try to force myself to complete it. Not much a fan of shotguns and with my limited playtime even on weekends i would need to skip sleep to complete it.

Is this melee weapon not obtainable with another method? I kinda wanted it but if this is the only way to obtain it i might just skip it altogether.

Yeah, the 10A hunter is downright ridiculous. The only way you can die in cqc is if the other player also has a 10A and started shooting first.

That’s a large part of why this challenge is so hilariously ridiculous. Games are full of assaults who can’t do any damage at range but instantly destroy you in cqc.

I still need 6 kills. Doing those tomorrow and than I can say, I have done this with the 1900 Slug. A very fun and unique weapon I discovered. I normally don’t like shotguns, but the slug is really fun.

This challenge just shows how the Model 10-A still is completely OP compared to all other shotguns & highlights how the other variants are miles behind in effectiveness. The M97 Sweeper is the worst, with a shot from less than 2 meters only dealing 57 damage, WTF is that, and the other variants have such random pellet spread that it mostly misses even ADS. The 1900 is good but since it only has 2 shots the 10-A IMO is still better. The 12g is okay but again is vastly inferior to the 10-A.

WHO DA FK thought this was okay?!?!

What is the next challenge: 300 kills with the hellriegel? cause that gun on console is OP as all hell.

Thanks, I needed my daily dose of sodium, lol. Glad to see the shottie salt train is still going strong.

Just played a few hours today, not even 5, and I got 245 kills using the 10-A Hunter on Conquest. I’ll have the challenge done tomorrow after 2-3 matches. This is the first time I’ve extensively used a shotgun other than maybe getting 1-2 kills after unlocking one I thought looked neat.

If people are having trouble doing this challenge even when playing on small modes - I’ve lost all faith in this playerbase.

Too many high pingers around, putting 5 rounds into them and they turn around and acknowledge me shooting them with the OHK.

It’s just easy mode, it really is ridiculous I just got 77 kills and 11 deaths in a 19 minute domination games using model-10 hunter, it is an absolute joke how easy they are to use. The issue isn’t getting the 300 kills for me it’s the fact that 99% of the bf1 population are running around with them.
