It's too bad they couldn't make the projectile an actual bolo. It would do decent damage up close but at longer ranges it would spread out and have a horizontal wire that had a fixed damage that wouldn't be very high, but with spammy shotguns it would be able to get you consistent hits at range. Basically a way to make semi auto shotguns more viable at longer ranges.
I feel like a nice buff to these would be to give the bolo rounds themselves a wider side to side bullet registration than normal slugs. So a near miss would result in a hit
It's actually quite good. I retract what I said about the Riveter in my other comment. With the ball ammo , I find it more usable than the Haymaker now.
So what I get from it is that it is a slug, except with gimmicks and extra consistancy with the downside being range. I think it works like a poor man's dragon's breath- that thing already gives you consistancy and blinds the enemy at the cost of range
Bolo shells would be nice if they actually stopped the enemy in tbsir tracks for 3 to 5 seconds and had minimal killing power like the gas crossbow. Would be an interesting way to get headshots with a secondary if you run the fast swap gloves or stunning the hunt bosses in zombies.
bolo, maybe they intend for you to use a short barrel to make the shot spread out faster and at close range. Just tested this and when you aim down at the empty black at the end of the range. I think I see TWO red dots about 6 inches apart at impact. Tested on dumby and I think I see one hit it, and another make a mark on the wall besides it. I'd like to get a dev to answer about this.
They should make the crosshair like this for them •-• then you just have to put the line on them. it’s supposed to shoot 2 balls chained together right would make sense! Maybe it’s just bugged rn?
I would like to see an armor piercing explosive round where you shoot through a wall and the other side of the wall a buck shot like explosion on the other side.
Shotguns are simply not usable on all maps unless you can effectively camp a specific spot on the map that works for shotguns. Wasteland? You will have no success anywhere but the center trench. Afghan? Maybe you could make the cave work but even then not good at all. Terminal? Very situational. I think the only maps shotguns can be used solely as primaries on is Favela, Karachi, Invasion, Sub Base, I think that is it off the top of my head
@@StyxYRenegade I’m sorry I meant that there are few maps that shotguns are actually viable on. The OP wanted to know how to use shotguns on various maps. I was trying to say that you are out of luck on some maps, it’s just not going to work out
Why would anyone use slugs over a sniper? There’s only downsides to shotguns with slugs compared to a more consistent one shot and faster movement/ads speed sniper.
I think the shotguns will get buffed. They need to wait till everyone buys the game first though and they get their money. Don’t want the game to have a bunch of broken shotguns pissing ppl off.
idk they havent even fixed some bugs in gunsmith yet doubt they care that much about sales, they know everyone gonna buy it anyway. ntm everyone and their mother complained about them in the last few cods even when they werent that good so they might jus go "this is what the majority asked for, smd." i could be wrong but thats how most triple a titles go nowadays

thats not how guns work bud. and wire is very short
@@petyabubkin2800 It's a game. How they work in-game right now isn't how they work in real life either.
Like the mastiff in apex

The ball ammo for the Riveter should be interesting

yeah. it makes hipfire builds more viable.

did you try slugs on the riveter? i've honestly been having a lot of fun with it, almost feels like a more close range focused battle rifle
I did in the beta and liked it alot! Will definitely be covering it.
@@Goomieawesome! would love to see that, its been one of my favorite things in the game so far
I'd like to see your take on shotguns in zombies! I have a lot of fun with the haymaker, mx guardian and the Lockwood 300
My take on shotguns in zombies is they do paltry damage at every level. Yet to try slugs though.
Jesus, they really don't want any other weapon category to shine.
Man I love you and your shotgun vids Goomie, but this is just depressing, skipping this year for sure ☹️ *sad vaquero noises*
Noooo, dont skip! 😭
MW3 multiplayer is better than MW2 , movement is amazing and some of the new guns are spot on .
bolo shells have more accuracy and power than slugs and more range than fuckshot. bolo shells are the master fucking race
lmao, basically, bolo bad
On brand for shotguns in this game
If it shot in a line I imagine it'll be awesome, easier to hit shots
If the haymaker is the exact same at the slug origin 12 in wz1 I will fall in love with WZ all over again HAHA
Struggling hard to play with shotguns and pistols in ME3. Any chance you could put out a video on how to effectively patrol all the maps?
Personally, I use a fast loadout with two smokes to run thru open areas. Plus Ghost and Covert
@@StyxYRenegade do you run double primary?

@@emwols I wouldn’t say all maps. The Riveter is decent on maps with close range possibilities

I'm waiting for the piranha rounds kinda like flechette rounds
I wish they could one shot in Warzone3 آمين
YAY
They did in WZ2 at launch. People were not happy 😕

Meme potential and to rub it in someones face that they died to something suboptimal/off meta despite using meta weapons in SND.
i would love to see the max movement shotgun in this game u should do review on it
We need more shotguns that operate like combat evolves pump, you should totally revisit Halo
Shotguns desperately need a buff.
I want to camp with claymores.
Isn't it supposed to be bola? Why did they call it bolo?
Ive only seen BOLO but not 100% sure
This shotgun needs 1 more meter of range so you can even consider using attachments other than the longest range.
anyone notice that when using bolo shells you eject the green cased slugs, next level of laziness
Do haymaker next
try it in tactical stance.
Why supresor on haymaker
That’s depressing. I was hoping they’d be better…..
Sucked in beta, sucks now
Haymaker is better with no ammo types
FIRST yay
WOOO
@@Goomie why didn't you reply to me??😭
@@MONKEYLOUAI IM SORRY
I just saw this 🥲
@@Goomie it's ok ;)
"BOLO"? Why the f would someone call an ammo type "cake"?
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bolas
Shotguns have no business being a primary in this game. They all need massive buffs.
ya the knife wins 90% of the time against them
Dragons breath is even worse
Shit feels like rubber bullets
Bolo are poopy

I am from the future, we have only received nerfs. Not even a single buff for slugs at all
Why COD don’t have dart ammo for shotguns
