Halo Shotgun Bug 2

jery

The halo shot gun is currently shooting two bullets it's not suppose to shoot two. it's suppose to shoot around twelve. I know that it's suppose to shoot twelve not two because I played on mc halo before it merged with meepcraft the only reasone I'm saying this because I want this Bug to be fixed instead of being denied because some mod thinks the shot gun is. suppose to shoot two bullets.If anyone thinks its suppose to shoot two bulets try killing someone with it because it's nearly impossible.i tested it out it takes around 19 shots from the shotgun to kill anyone. the shotgun has 12 shots in a round so if the person is nice enough to stay still like the one i tested it out on you will only have to reload once to kill someone otherwise you will have to use most of your amo.

Can you confirm that this still happens to you?

Its not just me this happens to its everyone that's why no one uses the shot gun. It still only shoots 2 bullets at a time as for how many shots it takes to kill anyone i haven't been able to get a someone to test it on but it takes around 7 shots to kill a wounded person but probally around 19 for a person who has full health. You can easily test this for your self just go on the halo server and try to kill some with the shotgun.

I get three shots, i dont think its a bug because imagine if you shot accross the map and hit 12 shots into an enemy... unless the spread is high enough to scatter all 12 shots the enemy would be dead in 1 hit with a shotgun...

like i said, i get 3 shots per trigger squeeze... not sure if its a bug, i think its an implementation to ensure smooth gameplay (it isnt halo standalone - its halo minecraft.)

I agree the shots shouldn't cross the map but its a close range weapon and if you tried to shoot long range the shots would spread apart making it impossible to hit someone with all 12 shots. Based on the halo server before it merged with meepcraft its a bug because it use to shoot 12 to 20 bullets and now as you said before it shoots 3 to 2. I would be fine with the shotgun if you could kill someone under 12 shots but as it is of now that's not possible unless their already half dead.

Yeah... I played mc-halo and a shotgun used to fire around 10-ish shots. Now it only fires 2... it really is impossible to kill someone... Just use a sniper it's better :D

jery

I agree the sniper is pretty good but to all the people out their who perfer a short range wide spread guns their are no replacements for the shotgun.

Thank you for that update, this will be moved into minigame pending and it will be worked on. In the meantime please enjoy the other gun kits on halo :)

We discussed this with techs, its really a non-issue and adds an element of difficulty to the game.
