Shotguns

I'm thinking of adding shotguns to the server. I can add them where the ppsh is in the limbo menu, only with shotgun skin, sound, and blast effects. The shotgun icon would replace the ppsh image in the selection menu in the limbo menu.

I can crank up the damage and keep the rate of fire low. So it wont unbalance the game as much as they did on the old jaymod server.

Opinions?

The shotgun was the most bitchin' weapon ever! But most players couldn't control it so never used it. I wouldn't mind if it was the same.But any incarnation of it is welcome.

I was thinking Tesla guns that shoot across the map.
Can you imagine trying to avoid electric arks shooting thru the air? Devastating!
Then we all could say we've been "Thunder Struck!".

Yep, shotguns would be nice, definitely hard to control though.  I've grown to really like the Sten myself.  Someone locks on you with that and you are toast most times.

Yeah this would be based on the PPSH as the underlying weapon slot (which itself is a modified GPG-40 lol) so no recoil. I can just reskin it and increase the damage and add the shotgun image to the limbo menu in place of the PPSH.

Glad to see you Lance btw

Thanks Obit, nice to see you as well, hope that things are going great for you.  That shotgun sounds great to me, no recoil would be a treat.  That would be a great weapon for any close quarters maps.  Thanks for the consideration.

Shotgun has been uploaded to the server over the pistols.

Damage has been set to 60.

So you can hit 2 as any player and get dual shotguns (one in each hand).

Also I reskinned the PPSH as the venom gun, with damage set to 60.
