No notes for shogun nerf/AR buff?

It takes 5-6 shots to kill a blue swat at like 15m with the Reinfeld. It's completely useless now.

I've got the shotgun damage perks and a first responder black and grey dude took two shots center mass at about fifteen feet with the Reinfeld.

The gently caress.

Twenty feet on a black and grey with shotgun damage perks, center mass, staggered and had to hit again.

Headshot on a green at about the same range, staggered and needed a followup shot.

Range and damage nerfed.

Just did overkill nightclub. There were at least eight dozers & a new place for vault to spawn. Streets are well lit now and there are cameras in the back by the security doors.

Took my silenced 308 and I want to say head shots were knocking them down but not killing.

Yes, they overnerfed shotguns in my opinion. I'm speccing out of shotgun skills now and I'm getting SMG's and other utlity stuff. My fully Modded CAR-4 and AK5 now destroy everything with little to no recoil at all.

Knocking who down? Tans? I could never get a silenced 308 to kill tans with headshots outside of close range even with all relevant skills pre-patch.

...I hope unsilenced 308 still kills tans in one headshot :(

We had two vaults on nightclub. One with two bags of cash which was the main objective and another with 4 bags of coke.

Mission payouts are MUCH lower now as a whole and the 5% spending cash rule seems to have changed.

The flashbangs effects stay much longer and even effects your vision for longer after the flash is done.

Jesus, the game is incredibly hard now. Don't see how you can do overkill heists without an organized group with voicechat, and even then only at high-ish levels. I'm kinda feeling they went too far in the other way while rebalancing.

This is pretty much how I feel about that, but it won't affect me much unless Tans now take three silenced headshots, or Greens two.

How's the kill rate with the Firebreather or Overkill muzzles?

Ok, the random framing frame day 2 ambush when you stealthed day 1 thing is definitely true cause I just had it. Pro so no way it was a glitch from restarts and I brought 8 paintings out of 8 so that can't be it. I'm also sure it wasn't the civilians cause I literally ran from the train to them as soon as I traded the last painting and they didn't even spawn. It also specifically said ambushed on the objective reminder thing. I guess it's just a retardedly low chance cause I've solo stealthed ff like 45 times and this is the only time I've experienced this.

Wow. The damage is just insane. A gang member can take out my armor bar with one shot from a mac-10 spray. And I'm a tech with the armor bonus wearing the heaviest stuff you can.

They changed the stats on all the barrel extensions. The stubby adds less damage but significantly reduces recoil, the tank adds roughly the same amount of damage with a bit less of a reduction in recoil, and the firebreather now adds the most damage with a very slight reduction in recoil.

Just tried out the new IZMHA. They really brought it in-line with the other shotguns. Knocks people down like nothing else but takes a while to kill them at medium range. Does rather unpleasant things to enemies in close range. Lacks the single-shot face-melting punch of the Mosconi, Renfield or Locomotive, but it has 70 shells for you to spray with and a fast, magazine based reload.

You think you can take me at Satan's Hollow? Go 'head on!
They really bumped up visibility stupid high for the 308 and Mosconi. You can't bring either one on a job at all unless you want High visibility, and both were my favorite weapons (and as a Mastermind I'm almost always the stealth crowd control guy).

FUUUUUUUUU...

Guess it's time to pick a new favorite weapon.

Is it just me or is the back half of that gun not a Saiga at all? Even has the AK's fire selector / safety / dust cover.
Guess that is accurate - time to buy one!

Neither of the Mosconi mods reduce its visibility either. If you put both on a player could fit it in one of their socks but NOPE, instant heat.

If they seriously nerfed the shotguns this badly they're going to have to dial it back, otherwise it'll be hell. I didn't think any of the shotguns were overpowered previously except the mosconi.

On overkill you basically don't want to ever get hit. I was on the roof of bank getting hit once from across the road and losing 3/4 shields.

Well, I guess Payday 2 was fun while it lasted.

Loco/Reinbeck have been nerfed into the ground to the point of uselessness (and this is as a shotgun enforcer), the changes to Overkill are exactly the wrong thing to have done (one first responder bullet does 40% damage to the enforcer armour) and should have been kept for a Overkill+ difficulty mode. Since non-Overkill heists give so little XP the only way to keep on levelling past 50 is to stealth everything on Overkill, the violent approach is completely out.
