Bad Company 2 - Shotgun Guide

[Calneon]

This is something i've been working on the last few days, because I'm really enjoying the shotguns in BC2 and I heard some people who can't or don't know how to use them. Made it from about 3 hours of recording and took about 5 hours to edit together.

Good job there, very informative. I obviously am missing out by not using shotguns much - the one you used looks epic.

Just a couple of notes, it would have been better to see you use all of the shotguns in-game, have slightly less text to read (or a voiceover) and perhaps make the video a little shorter. Your editing was top notch though.

I'm sure Oric will love you for putting Diary of Jane in there :p.

Not too sure bout the music but that shotgun set up is fucking ridiculous :D was that on hardcore or normal? Nice video though, good pointers

Thanks for the advice Chalex.

LoL can't wait to unlock these bad boys, although there pretty op surely there gunna get patched so the range isn;t quite so lol and one hit kill on normal with them from that range is ridiculous it would take like a whole assault clip to kill them usually :P

You do have to have your crosshairs centered exactly over the enemy, and you'd be surprised how fast you die to assault rifle fire if you miss your first shot. Gotta take frag videos like this with a pinch of salt, you could make the Garand look OP if you recorded 10 hours of play and then picked your 10 best kills with it.

Ive allready told you thats its a very nice guide, im guessing everyone here knows about the fact medics can give a team god mode, when you revive someone they cant be killed till they start shooting. (For a little while anyway) So you can be free to knife someone near by

[D_K_Head]

heh, a shotgun medic is indeed a nice extra. An assault with a shotgun (Or a G3, those are pretty good) is a nice asset too.

Medic God-mode? Surely that's a little unbalanced? Or does it stop revive campers?

I guess so. It would also be annoying if you kept being revived then instantly getting killed again, as even if you get revived you still get a death added to your stats.

Though the problem is that its creating unbalances in 4 man squad games wherby you can all go medic and keep the whole team up all the time with practice

use and abuse it, or sit back and call it cheap. Either one.

Ban medic? I guess you could say limited to 1 medic, that would work.
