|
|
At the beginning of each game, thisi is a question hard to response that depends on the skill of the player, the map you're playing, the difficulty and other factors. I normally catch the uzi, but sometimes (playing versus eh) I have no ammo when we arrive to the street.
Do you have a static choice (you can be a shotgun-fan) or evalue the factors relationed to the map for do it? What choices do you think are the correct while playing different maps? |

Agreed, I find the Uzi a bit pants for everything apart from fightining of huge hordes, and even then, melee is still more preferable. |

I usually use shotgun on everything except when i play on expert, becouse its easy to shoot teammates with it and on expert that hurts like hell. |

Well, I switch to pistol while there is no danger. For example, if you enter in a room with 3 zombies "zombies" (that is, like sleeping haha), you can use a reload of uzi or you can use the pistol to do nice headshots.
My idea is that if you ration your ammo, you will found the uzi better than the shotgun, beacuse in some situations the uzi is faster and will avoid great quantities of health lost, for example you need 2 or 3 shots of shotgun to kill a hunter that is killing a mate if you are close to them (and if you aren't you will need more shots), but uzi will do it faster. |

nah you can one shot hunter whit shotgun ^^ aim for the head and he drops down... shotguns are good when your in tigth corners where zombies can only enter one way... i find uzi goes emty to fast while shotgun kills same amount as uzi and has more sprtead on the kills....
i think the choise betwean uzi or shotgun is personal...... if you use em the rigth way there are no betther choise  |

I like both, but I generally take the shotgun because its easier to help out teammates with it in my experience. |

I prefer the shotgun in most situations.
Although, when you find the advanced weapons I do like the M4. |

Yeah, Shotgun to start, M4 to finish.
The best thing is you get to laugh at those fools who pick the hunting rifle on the Dead Harvest finale  |

I think I remember that one time when I've used uzi or M4, it was quite entertaining those 2 minutes as it lasted.
I suck at ammo conservation. And I love the way zombies fall on their ass when they're hit point blank with the shotgun.... |

Shotty.
Actually, my standard tactic is to have pistol(s) out, then when tank/horde comes I whip out my pump-action friend here and send them back to hell.
Works like a dream. Except on expert...
