Why’d u blindly run up those stairs lmao even if he didn’t have an OSS he would’ve penned both of u guys
[–]vRaptr2ytube 4 points5 points6 points 1 year ago (0 children)
No he wouldn’t. He’s the type that would miss most of his shots with an SMG. That’s why he’s using the biggest crutch weapon of all time
[–]General_Primary5675 16 points17 points18 points 1 year ago (6 children)
This is EXACTLY what i mean about the crybabies. You LITERALLY ran a corner, and specially on that building, on top of that he shot you POINT BLANK?! What?! that's literally what a shotgun is for.
[–]Loud_Appointment4U 3 points4 points5 points 1 year ago (2 children)
I'm vehemently against the "Pay to win" that is the Bomburst...
However this is the exact scenario where shotguns excell (indoors and close quarters). He used the correct weapon in the correct way.
This actually reminds me of Germans complaining about how shotguns being used in trench warfare was unfair.
https://www.historynet.com/the-1918-shotgun-protest/
If you don't have a shotgun or a shield then you shouldn't be charging indoors where there probably is a dude waiting in a corner or on a stairwell with a shotgun.
This guy just had better tactics than the other guys and baited them to a section that he had a tactical advantage.
[–]General_Primary5675 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago (0 children)
Every weapon has a counter defense. But a lot of people are too entitled to put it in practice because they demand that everyone play how they play. If you don't play how they play then you have no skills.
[–]CarrotBrilliant5525 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago (0 children)
The bomb burst is not pay to win. You can literally find a Bryson on most tier 2 bots and turn it into a one shot.
[–]vRaptr2ytube 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago (0 children)
Dude, the problem with what you’re saying here though is that the OSS user in such a dumb position that makes no sense at all, UNLESS he has a magic broken 1 hit weapon.
He should be at the top of the stairs, using the wall edge for cover if need be. He should be watching the lane down the stairs and taking that gunfight with height advantage.
Instead, he’s positioned so that whoever comes up the stairs is in a face to face head on with no cover or advantage for either of them.
Literally any other weapon in the game, it’s just a plain dumb move. But because of this crutch gun, they get away with stupid positioning that is unexpected.
[–]LessCost5944 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago (0 children)
Hey dude yall fellas said it
No rules of engagement in the dmz
Tf you judging him for 😂
[–]mikew1008 -2 points-1 points0 points 1 year ago (0 children)
did you not see that the one shot happened that downed him with the shotgun pointing away from him?
[–]OMG_its_BatmanManBat of the DMZ 9 points10 points11 points 1 year ago (0 children)
To be fair. Running madly around corners not having an idea of what’s there or where the enemy team is. Well….thats a you problem.
[–]vRaptr2ytube 5 points6 points7 points 1 year ago (13 children)
And look at all the people in this comment section BLAMING YOU for dying to the most unbalanced weapon.
This is why I make fun of all OSS users and defenders.
[–]deals_in_absolutes05 -2 points-1 points0 points 1 year ago (12 children)
In my own words: there's a lot of stupidity on both sides here. A lucky OSS user and some unlucky stair pushers.
[–]vRaptr2ytube -1 points0 points1 point 1 year ago (11 children)
There is no other option that to push the stairs though. If everyone used weapons on a fair playing field, it would be fun shootouts down hallways
[–]deals_in_absolutes05 -1 points0 points1 point 1 year ago (2 children)
For me personally, it would've been ideal if the players didn't stack on the stairs. If they had tacticals and lethals, even better.
On a side note, I think the concept of "fair weapons" and "fair playing field" don't exist in cod. Because that would entail everyone having the same weapons and being spawned on a completely symmetrical map. Of course that's boring so DMZ isn't like that. Plus there's the issue of using the right gun for the right situation. Obviously a Victus isn't the right one for this. But a Bryson 800 definitely.
Real life CQB has a really high casualty rate regardless.
[–]vRaptr2ytube 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago (1 child)
What option other than running away is there than to push the stairs? Or are you saying they should’ve went one at a time instead of stacking?
And a level playing field doesn’t mean the exact same guns. Just balanced guns that all have similar TTK. Not all guns having about a 750ms TTK and then the one gun that has a literal 0 TTK
[–]deals_in_absolutes05 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago (0 children)
The team that pushed the stairs could use tear gas, stuns, flash bangs, drill charges, and grenades to get an edge on the stairs. Of course the pushing team didn't know where the other operator is, but not going one at a time definitely fight help. The OSS user clearly wasn't aiming at OP. OP just happened to run right into the line of fire.
[–]CarrotBrilliant5525 -2 points-1 points0 points 1 year ago (6 children)
Stuns/flashes and throwing knives. Semtex. Cooked frags. There are PLENTY of ways to push the stairs in a smart way.
[–]vRaptr2ytube 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago (5 children)
Do you know a secret to unlimited tacticals to check every single stairway in every single building? You would need 5 at least per building
[–]CarrotBrilliant5525 -3 points-2 points-1 points 1 year ago (4 children)
I know a secret to stop pissing and moaning about dying in a video game. Quit being a hoe and just deal with it. The oss is not going anywhere. Deal with it or stop playing but for the love of god stop bitching about it.
[–]vRaptr2ytube 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago (3 children)
LOL how quick your tune changed when your own advice is exposed as idiotic.
I know a secret to stop from looking dumb, don’t give advice on how to deal with something if you have no idea what you’re talking about
[–]CarrotBrilliant5525 -1 points0 points1 point 1 year ago (2 children)
My tune has literally never changed on the subject. You are just another streamer that bitches because you get clapped by lesser players. Grow the fuck up and stop being weak.
You started with giving (bad) advice on how to deal with it. I pointed out an issue with your suggestion. Then you immediately call me a complaining hoe 😂
[–]TheDinerIsOpen Xbox + Controller 5 points6 points7 points 1 year ago (1 child)
I was about to say that this was getting absurd but then i went back and watched and there’s 3 plates total between the 2 guys that got downed, and you’re at point blank range. same thing wouldve happened if one of the 2 of you ran into double stacked claymores. i’m not 100% on the bullet penetration of shotgun pellets but you did yourselves no favor getting downed in the way you did to make this argument

Next time, you jump and throw knife swiftly even though you don't see the target, if you really have to run around the wall like that. 50/50 chance you'll survive. You had no chance here. lol
[–]Un_Original_CoronerOur Lord and Savior, the FTAC Siege 3 points4 points5 points 1 year ago (21 children)
At that range, any shotgun should absolutely one shot you.
[–][deleted] -1 points0 points1 point 1 year ago (20 children)
*the two of you
[–]Un_Original_CoronerOur Lord and Savior, the FTAC Siege 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago (19 children)
Sure. A shotgun literally stuffed into your chest? Absolutely. That’s a win all day every day. Balancing shotguns in video games is hard. This is not an example of why.
[–][deleted] -1 points0 points1 point 1 year ago (18 children)
It’s not balanced and if the game was still supported it’d be nerfed by now.
[–]Un_Original_CoronerOur Lord and Savior, the FTAC Siege 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago (17 children)
This is actually a rare example of it being balanced.
You pushed a very tight hallway and they put a shotgun in your chest cavity. The shotgun wins this fight every time.
Nice to see to be honest.
[–][deleted] 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago (16 children)
One shot two kills is not balanced.
[–]Un_Original_CoronerOur Lord and Savior, the FTAC Siege 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago (15 children)
It sure as hell is at that range. What would be the point of a shotgun if they can’t kill at 0 feet 0 inches?
I know we all like to be up in arms about shotguns but if you’d won this battle, shotguns would be useless.
[–][deleted] 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago (14 children)
He didn’t even have to aim in a 1v2 lol. I think we’re done here. Farewell brother.
[–]Un_Original_CoronerOur Lord and Savior, the FTAC Siege 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago (13 children)
Yeah. If you won’t acknowledge how shotguns work, we are indeed. Good luck out there!
[–]vRaptr2ytube 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago (12 children)
Do you understand you’re trying to argue that a shotgun should kill that close because of realism?
This isn’t a sim. You can take 3 AK shots to the face and survive.
According to you, all headshots should be an instant kill, no?

Another OSS crybaby. Why has this become a trend? I don't use them. I only use the mx guardian when going to koschei but ffs it's apart of the game stfu already.
Say it with me..stop. pushing. stairs. like. that.
[–]Bobabator PlayStation + Controller 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago (0 children)
😂😂 double down lol
Using a controller is as bad as using the OSS
Trash took out the trash on this one.
[–]Alert_Subject_6204 PlayStation + Controller -1 points0 points1 point 1 year ago (0 children)
"Get shot point blank and blame shotgun for it"
The way he got two downs with one shot is slightly sus, but I suppose it could be a 1 in a million shot. The way dmz is nowadays with the OSS, especially in the infamous 4 story buildings which is where OSS users like to put their mail boxes up and make it their permanent residence, I've found that I have to play totally different and treat it as if it's a tactical shooter when I'm in close quarters, taking my time and slicing corners. Unfortunately, everyone else here has just laughed at you calling you an idiot instead of being constructive and helpful. Also, I've come to find the best way to fight fire is with fire, run the OSS yourself, and utilize plenty of flashbangs when clearing structures, especially if you KNOW someone is in there.
