Solution: Go to thatbush over there and own sitting back there, dont worry, you wont get owned from 20 feet away again, and P.S. if you think the shotgun is overpowered, then you havent heard of a qscope, or a random grenade thrown by your teammate

Counter Solution: Be demo and own them right back

good idea, but directed to the guy complaining about Demolition, theres so many problems with this game and you come here complaining about shotguns, how conveinient, join the anti-qscopers club or something but never complain about shotguns when theres qscoping and sensor spamming and other glitches/problems

I mean seriously, shotguns? Compain about getting shot through a wall like i always do

Kevlaredd · 15-06-2009, 12:44 AM

shotguns are overpowered. oen example on valley run. im on one side of the bridge this guy with the shotty is on the other. im at 92 health. he shoots me once, and i die. from the other side of the bridge. shotguns need to be put back to they way they were in modern combat, it actually took a little bit of skill to use back then. but now, an infant can pick up the controller and own with the ridculous shotgun on this game.

again, it has been established that the shotgun and demolition kit take the most skill to use. people who say it is overpowered and who get owned with it are noobs. how is this true? because the majority of players who use demo have a negative K/D. how do i know this? look at the demo leaderboard. kind of hard to at the moment, but the best demo players in the game, none have reached a 2.0 with the demo kit.

when you complain about dieing by a demo, you got killed by a noob. congratulations.

"What to do about it?"

Don't stand in front of one.

Don't try to knife a guy who has one when he's staring at you.

Don't complain.

Don't get close too one.

And no it's not over powered... They get ****ed in every situation unless it's close range.

ive reaching 14.5K/D with the NS2000 but normally float around 10-12k/d, but i think he ment demo k/d on both my accounts ive never been over 1.3 and in the top 15 ive seen 1 1.9 but normally the highest is 1.7 but around 10 of the 15 have k/d of around 1.3-1.4

ZuluCubed · 15-06-2009, 08:33 AM

Demo is the most limited kit in the game in my opinion, if their shotguns weren't that good, they would be an easy kill on sight, or rather, an easier kill on sight.

muss1210 · 15-06-2009, 01:41 PM

whattttt demo limited in a noobs hands maybe but its very virsitile
take out heli's yep
atm's and rpg's for tank
atm's and rpg's for taking out walls
grenades for crowd control
shootgun for close combat
rpg for long range shots

the only thing demo cant do is heal and repair other than that there a pretty all round kit

SuperNova749 · 15-06-2009, 02:07 PM

Most likely what happens is that you have like 10 health and you get shot at long range and die then you go in thinking the shot gun is over powered and over ranged. the shot gun is fine. Like someone said before, it designed to do that, kill in one shot.

Obviously the further away the harder to kill. I also think people are focusing on the wrong area of the demo kit to complain of suggest about. Like the area affect of a rocket could be bigger (More Splash damage and range). Able to pick land mines back up...

If there is one weapon that is annoying it has to be the knife. I've actually seen people lunge at a enemy to get a kill...(I was like lalala...is this Halo?) Also seems like when people are running towards you with a knife out, its harder to kill them (Specifically Snipers and Specialist)

Remember people when knifing...AIM FOR THE TORSO...

*SIGH* Weapon k/d is number of people killed by your gun vs number of times you've been killed by THAT PARTICULAR GUN. Same with vehicle k/d.

Compared to specialist: Demo lacks weapon range, stealth, tank-killing, crowd control, area denial, and cover removal.

Demo is VERY limited, not in what it can do total, but in what it does as well as the other classes.

Symonator · 15-06-2009, 04:38 PM

lol - so the demo class is overpowered? the sniper kit overpowered, support overpowerd and ra ra ra riot the specilist ump overpowered.. lalala are you playing this game for?

wookieSpeedball · 15-06-2009, 04:44 PM

you can't change the demo class. that's just dumb. it's perfectly balanced. just face the fact that up close 95% of the time you're going to die. you have to be smart to play demo, and spec. mad props to people that can dominate with those 2 kits
