Before learning about this build, I can't describe the confusion I felt getting domed from across the map from a shotgun. Outrageous build, great video
Paik got a change, so when she uses her AOE spotting gadget, she no longs shows up on the map. That's also why you were constantly getting location revealed under your crosshair, it's her gadget.
Imagine the best dmr actually being a shotgun, short barrel seems to give better firerate but the longer barrel gives faster bullet velo, so maybe that would be better for longer engagements and less drop/leading
Turning unsuitable guns into DMRs is my pet hobby in FPSes, and tbh I didn't notice enough of a difference to warrant the long barrel with the 12M in 2042 - the short barrel makes sense to me as a default since you can hotswap to buckshot when the higher RoF is more useful without needing to also swap the barrel, and it doesn't hurt at all when you're using slugs and not going automatic since the projectile is so slow anyway
@@ALiLSpiderr No it hasnt. They changed all of the 1st person animations in update 0.4.1 (In May) and it broke the positioning of the lasers on all weapons
If you want to try a very similar weapon, but that is actually a DMR, you just have to give a look at the SVK. After the last patch it is a pretty decent gun. Nice video Jack, as always.
"They're definitely gonna think I'm cheating with this." You are so wholesome, Jack, lmao. Your content is always unique, funny, informative and just downright entertaining. Definitely my favorite RUclipsr!
9:20 "Not really many play jets in this game." Jack it's because there's not enough vehicles in Battlefield 2042. Because people complained so much the developers reduced the amount of vehicles to literally one attack vehicle in every category which the jet's are grouped up with helicopters. It makes zero sense why jets don't have their own category. It also doesn't make any sense why there's not more than one helicopter on every map. If you have two helicopters per team you will always see those helicopters going for each other. If you make the jets separate the jets put pressure on the helicopter. If you allow two Tank's and one mobile Anti Air vehicle you will see them going for each other first. Caspian border is nearly the perfect map to play for vehicles because of the amount of vehicles you could use from. I don't find it very spammy or infantry when there's enough vehicles to attack other vehicles.
shotgun sniping is literally what kept me playing Battlefield 3 for all those years. M1014 slugs was literally an SVD for any class, (therefore, engineer, the real gamer class)
One of my fav builds in this is LCMG with sub sonic rounds, bipod and 1/4x zoom scope. Just invisible killing machine people have no idea where they are dying from
@@TheoriginalBMT Never used the saiga have you? Sure, it's an ok shotgun after the third shot in CQC, but anywhere past 15 meters and you have to mag dump the drum. Half a mag or more for close-medium range, only two full drums of ammo on spawn total, very Lengthy reload. You have much better efficiency using the vector
Almost reminds me of slug shotguns in BFBC2, sniping people across maps with only iron sights. Also, give the BSV-M with shortened suppressor and close combat ammo a go.
Great video Jack! Love how someone figured that build out. I agree, not game breaking in my opinion, especially as a console player. I think that gun would be hard to use as well as you did on PC. Love the BF content!
People complaining about paik...... but this exists in the game and the vehicles still can regen to full health without being repaired and drive/fly off without a care in the world

Getting shotgun sniped is a part of battlefield history
it's only good to 200 meters
Back in my day, we could stick 20x scopes on our shotguns
@@deemster1 been confused since bf3, truly living through history
I mean it is a slug shot they are kinda snipers in battlefield I've been using this build a while now
Paik got a change, so when she uses her AOE spotting gadget, she no longs shows up on the map. That's also why you were constantly getting location revealed under your crosshair, it's her gadget.
Ah ok that makes sense why everyone is playing her now, thanks.
Totally not annoying at all, great game design
And this is why I fucking hate hero shooter mechanics in other games.
@@ramsaybolton9741 if you are looking for good design go play bf1

I think we would all like a bf4 remaster
They would find a way to fuck that up too lol
Yea i would play that
2042 is fun though.......
Whith the new dice? No thanks.
Facts sir, facts
Glad I can enjoy this game vicariously through your videos Jack!
The only way to enjoy is BF2042 is vicariously
This takes me back to BC 2 counter sniping with slugs with all the shotties. Hilarious good time.
Killing a helicopter guy with it and everyone calls you hacker
yeah slugs has always been the best. Glad nothing has changed
Short barrel slug full auto. Damn, that remids me of 40k bolter! That thing rails people!
Ah, King Robbaz’s shotgun sniper days, gonna need to watch that one again
This brings back memories of the OG... BFBC2 shotgun sniping.
💯
My wrist would be broken from the rage of me slamming my hand on my desk
Love slug sniping it's how I was challenging myself in bf3 and 4 one of my most memorable kills was taking out an attack chopper from over 400m away.
Pretty much same experience for me. I remember using slug shotgun in BC2 and taking out pilot from attack chopper, good times.
in 2042 this shotgun is capped at 200 meters
@@TheAgentAssassin well that's lame
@@TheAgentAssassin 14:12 But Jack just got a kill at 270 meters tho..?
I bet that was a hell of a shot!
Bf3 with the usas-12 and frag rounds. God we would piss off full lobbies of people. Great times.
Did you disable the sun in Caspian Border?
@@IllusiveMind7 nope. Never knew that was a thing
@@IllusiveMind7 with this gun, I cancontrol day and night!!! Lmao. Still their best episode ever imo.
If you’ve ever seen one of those slugs in real life, you definitely wouldn’t want to live after getting hit in the head with one.
I dont think you would live if you got smashed by one of those
They should increase the recoil of shotguns to balance them. It’s like he’s shooting a .22 rather than a 1 ounce slug
@@bm2618 then again, it’s 2042. Gun could have an internal anti-recoil system similar to the vector
@@toddbender3463 it’s called recoil mitigation not anti-recoil
Robbaz' sniper shotgun videos were legendary
Jack's giggling is the best part of the video.
*nodders*
The broken laser when you sprint 🤣
That laser has been broken ever since the game came out.
@@ALiLSpiderr I'm smart enough to not even owning a copy of this mess.
@@ALiLSpiderr No it hasnt. They changed all of the 1st person animations in update 0.4.1 (In May) and it broke the positioning of the lasers on all weapons
Yeah the laser wants to leave lol 😂
@@jackfrags Yeah at least the base of the game is correct lol
The last time I was this early to a jackfrags video, I...wait, I was never this early to a jackfrags video before.
Gonna go play BF4. I watch Jack's videos because eventually I'm going to break down and buy 2042, but BF4 is still good and I still enjoy it
Or BF1, if you're not into modern weapons and such.
Its 25$ at wal mart. I bought it for my brother
pc?
Got it for $10… I’ve played every BF since 2 and this game is good … run don’t walk to get this game. C ya on the BF !!
@@TrollHunterxXx where did you get it for $10 from?
Hard to believe the saiga is this good but the 880 pump with slugs is horrendous
If you want to try a very similar weapon, but that is actually a DMR, you just have to give a look at the SVK. After the last patch it is a pretty decent gun. Nice video Jack, as always.
I’m beyond happy you mentioned Robbaz, I’ve been watching him and you for a very long time now
he's a RUclips legend!
1:29 perfectly timed callout lmao
I can't believe they've only added 5 guns to the entire game
Jack, paik no longer gets spotted when using her EM scanner so that's why more people have been using her recently mate, good video once again.
If you shoot the sun with that gun it turns the map into night.
5:30 “teammates got that guy, I believe” well that was your first mistake
Robbaz? the sweed? ive not heard that name in a long time.
Angel: Angel does it again!
Jack: Battlefield 2042 does it again!
you get "location revealed" all the time because of the pokeballs
oh man what a shout out for Robbaz, great memories, great times
Sounds like you were truly having fun Jack...and those vibes make for the best videos 👍.
This channel simultaneously wants me to hop on a game and never play again at the same time
This bring back memories of Robbaz Bf3-videos indeed!
Brings back the USAS12 Frag memories from back in the days!
In real life shotgun slugs are only effective to about 200 yards and that's pretty exceptional.
Thankyou. I used to use slug shotguns in Planetside 2 and call them "the sniper". This is so much fun again!
Jack's laugh is contagious. I can't help but laugh along with him while he's sniping with a shotgun while shooting from the hip
Loved the Tiger King reference at the end. Jack always quick-witted.
now I know why I was getting destroyed by this the past few games.
So filthy, it's almost like a step sister stuck in a washer dryer.
In bf3 during the launch you could put a scope on any shotgun with the slugs. And it was a shot gun sniper. Crazy
camping a beacon is the worst kind of character
he didnt disabled the sun atleast... thats something...
bfv on launch, headshots across the map with shotgun
This gun with shirt barrel and dart ammo is pretty fucking OP too
Robbaz....that is a name I have not heard in a long time
The Chaperone done found it's way to BF2042.
YES JACK! You and ROBBAZ THE GOAT
That laser when he's running 💀
2:35. After all these years, all these videos, Jack still doesn't know what "Full-auto" means in relation to a firearm.
I'm loving the higher Bitrate on the video Jack!
Finally 😂 it’s pretty OP if you can get the slug velocity down and ur welcome jack have fun lmao 👍🏽👍🏽
I cant even make half the shots on a sniper with a 8x
Same. I have better chance with a rocket from 200m away
"They're definitely gonna think I'm cheating with this." You are so wholesome, Jack, lmao. Your content is always unique, funny, informative and just downright entertaining.
Definitely my favorite RUclipsr!
Yes Jack, a bullet kills people at any
range. When it hits
Thank dude, now every jackass is running a saiga with slugs... 😒
Ahhh memories of 870 sniping from the aircraft carrier on noshawr canals
We’re evolving just backwards
its very satisfying to see a streamer/youtuber capturing the objectives
imagine what they're thinking when they get killed from 100+ meters by a shotgun LOL
Reminds me of the drilling from bfV. I'd get sniped and be so confused until I realized it had a rifle round.
Deer hunters shoot deer with slugs at distance all the time. 150 yards.
Thank you Evan Johnson
ah yes robbaz sniper shotgun 😂that was the best simply hilarious
That was hilarious! Love the cheeky shots across the map with it and how people get absolutely wrecked close range.
Dice doesn’t simply understand physics. It’s a shotgun for Christ sake!
Saiga: *160m headshot*
Jack: It's memes then... *chuckles maniacally*
Eeey, jack also used to watch Robbaz! Respect lol
My god haha such a laugh and need to try it out! Btw Jack did u not see the lightning that almost struck you?? 06:17

Wasn’t the whole problem that you could call in vehicles? The vehicles being only available from spawn screen or on one of your points was better
Jack even the fletchet rounds for that shotguns slap.
shotgun sniping is literally what kept me playing Battlefield 3 for all those years. M1014 slugs was literally an SVD for any class, (therefore, engineer, the real gamer class)
I can just hear the BF Friends Engineer screaming "I can turn day into night!" on using this shotgun.
Robbaz's videos with the shotgun slug sniper are GOATed
Jack was being a real SlugTerra. 😆
*flashback to BF3 spas-12 12G slug with a x6 scope*
This explains why I’ve been getting melted by this thing.
i used the spas with slugs back in bfbc2 from the wind turbines on heavy metal. outsniped all the snipers due to no bullet drop. good times
We use to do this with BF3 or 4 with the DAO 12 crack up because we were sniping people with slugs from a shotgun
Callout from Robbaz! Sweet. 2:30
Thank god we’re back to 1080p
3:36 the laser bugged lol
It's always great seeing you with these crazy builds
“I’ve become the slug.” -jackfrags 2022
The only way Dice can get people to come back to this game for a match is introducing funky or buggy weapon builds lul
This is a WHOLE different kind of slugging from the Xbox console slugs. I'm here for it.
Waiting on explosive shotgun shells to be overpowered again.
One of my fav builds in this is LCMG with sub sonic rounds, bipod and 1/4x zoom scope. Just invisible killing machine people have no idea where they are dying from
no wonder why everyones running around the map with shotguns.
Wow, imagine if you could have a drum mag full of slugs. Pure destruction!

Perfect hipfire, high damage, slugs slow enough to see them travel, this is just a blaster from battlefront lol
I’m not looking forward to my one play session this week to knock out all the weekly missions knowing every one will be using this now
Don’t be to terrified. I did all mine in 3 hours last night, didn’t run into any shotguns until I switched to hardcore.
Almost reminds me of slug shotguns in BFBC2, sniping people across maps with only iron sights. Also, give the BSV-M with shortened suppressor and close combat ammo a go.
