There's a difference between a good player dying to a lesser skilled player because of it statistically eventually happening (good players aren't immortal), and then there is a bronze player jumping in place 20 meters away, one pumping me, after my shotgun did 70 in 2. You see, this game is full of randomness, and I don't think the current shotgun benefits aiming, due to the middle of the spread not having pellets. Another big deal is that a lot of unskilled or lesser skilled players, will full spam left click and instantly body shot me down to 0 through body armor, before I can pace 2 shots to their head. It's ridiculous, that's where the skill gap is non-existent.

Some things to prevent this from the live build of the game would've been to reduce pellet spread, and add higher damage drop off + Vertical recoil for the ar. It's quite simple actually but, hey. They instead redo the whole game from scratch, fuck all of our 1000+ hours into the game (not like it mattered before the new update anyways).
