Lol there’s something about going up against a clan on locker where there all using automatic shotguns that gets under your skin. I hate that I have to use them just to fight back.
So weird for cqb guns to be broken in a cod size map in a game balanced around big maps right?
Don’t play lockers (aka, the smallest, most infantry based map designed specifically for close quarters).
Problem solved.
They are really annoying in Domination. Quite alot of people play Domination because it’s not TDM. It has objectives, is team oriented, and is the gamemode of choice for comp. Unfortunately, there are many players who choose to use a semi-auto shotguns in Domination.
I mean really. Are you really going to complain about shotguns being powerful on a gametype designed for close quarters? Trying running with a shotgun on conquest on Rogue transmission or siege of shanghai, and tell me how well you do. Shotguns are already very limited in their usefulness in game, and in the few scenarios they actually are good people won’t stop crying about how good they are.
I hope the Browning Auto-5 makes it into the game. It’s the worlds first semi-auto shotgun. It had a capacity of 5 rounds. Production started in 1902 ended in 1998.
Hopes for that.
There will be semi auto shotguns in this game. Sorry guys. I will be blasting you with the semi and it will sound like a Hemi. Hate mail? I don’t want to see any.
Bf1 will not turn into battlefield AEK like bf4 did because of all the crying. It’s close quarters it’s a shotgun you will get REKT. You don’t see us complaining about your mid range kills that are out of our range but if you want to stand there and take 8 rounds from mid range while you’re already injured, it’s your fault you died.
Hate to break it to you OP, but the semi-automatic Auto-5 was spotted in some concept art and thus will almost certainly be featured. The Sjogren may also make an appearance.
It’s going to be fun just like it was the first XMas after the release of BF3 when everyone went frag happy with the USAS12 ..
You know what would be even greater? No automatic weapons at all!
Speak for yourself
Of course i speak for myself, i know you people who cant aim for need them full auto weps praying to hit something 
Actually I use tanks to mask my lack of skill, not full auto weapons.
my gripe with that would be that it would be a dreadfully homogeneous game without automatic weapons.
You act like you’re amazing or something.
15 meter shots are perfect for shotguns…that is what they were made for. Not using a shotgun at that range would be stupid. Use what wins games, not what you think should be an honorable weapon!
But auto and semi auto weapons existed in WWI.
I presume you want a bolt action slug fest with a 1 kill every 5 mins scenario if someone pops their head up over the trench someone might get a shot or kill.
Thats not what hes gettinggetting at. Hes trying to set up another skill gap.
Damn it xer21 I should have known this game is for the elite bolt action users.
FK I feel so ashamed.
Of course mine was a joke, i wouldnt want a semi/bolt actions only game, i like variety as you can see from my profiles
The problem is i want semi/bolt rifles to be the weapon of choice in a WW1/WW2 game and it seems it wont happen cause of course automatic weapons are the most easy ones to use… so i was hoping DICE to do some gameplay changes from recent BFs to promote the weapons that made WW1 famous but it seems they consider them just the usual sniper class weapon to camp far away with a scope or be completely useless in close combat
No i am not amazing, i am just a WW1/WW2 lover and for once an AAA game goes back to that i’d like to get a proper game (which does NOT mean SIMULATOR with trench camping warfare and like that)
None asking for a camping game
Did you ever hear about CoD1/2? You know, that 2 games that are 2 of the best in FPS genre?
Well let me tell you a story, there was both auto weps and semi/bolt weapons and guess what? Bolt/semi weps were most used, there was no camping, not fully trench maps, there were shitload of kills and everything was wonderfully balanced
Now i know yall are very sensitive about CoD but really, IF they could do it why DICE cant?
Because i am sure they didnt even consider a gameplay change that would mark the natural separation from recent modern era BF games and a WW1 game… so why did they even bother to pick World Wars era? They could have picked a mroe recent one (Cold War, Vietnam, etc) and everything would suit and make sense and that’s why all the
