I'd say the Advanced Rifle rifle is the main gun to use but knocking someone out of their shoes with a shotgun feels so so good. Actually getting any kill with any gun in free aim DM feels pretty damn good. After spending 5 months in auto aim lobbies and doing well in DM, it's humbling having my ass handed to me in free aim. Just going to continue to practice and practice.

Just going to continue to practice and practice. I agree. What an awesome feeling you get from actually earning those kills in a showdown against multiple opponents. Or a long range battle with Assault Rifles. Love free aim!

Oooh. good question. assault shotgun, gripped out w/ extended mags is always fun in close quarters. However, if I had to pick one favorite... sticky bombs. That's just my style. Hahaha. Grenades, rockets, whatever goes boom. Explosives are my thing.

I was Special Carbine for a long ass time but I'm now giving the other carbines a try and I do like the pump shotgun as well but usually get picked off at distance before being able to use it

Right now I like using the pistol, even though I have an smg...I'm an assassin like that...but long range is my game(when I can afford it or unlock it)

Been using the Advanced Rifle a lot lately. Much more accurate than I assumed it would be and even silenced it's a nasty weapon.
It hasn't replaced my Special Carbine but it's a worthy sidegrade.

I stick to the Combat MG. Good at medium to long range, and 200 rounds with the extended magazine. With a grip and scope, you rarely need to use another weapon. For CQB engagements, the Assault Shotgun has no equal. Even hip or blind fire will kill your target. Suppressors do decrease range and stopping power, so I rarely use them. I have one fitted to my AP Pistol, but that's it. But the AS is just an overpowered weapon, I myself would rather lose every single engagement then use that thing. Any time that some one uses one on me i discount them as a person worthy of respecting or even being worth my time and effort to get to know. My weapon of choice is the heavy pistol, it is a very satisfying weapon to get a kill with. If it comes down to a serious fight though i mainly use a Pump and the special carbine.

A lot of people in this crew feel the same way about the AS. I don't expect other players to never use it but it certainly seems like a cheap shot when they do.

The reality is that if you use an Auto Shotty or a Minigun on the XBOX side you lose respect instantly. There are no rules in place that say you can't use them but don't get pissy when someone calls you lame for it.
There is a Golden Rule that I and many others go by in a Deathmatch: No Auto Shotty, Miniguns or explosives other than grenades.
Captures are different as well in my opinion. For the most part anything goes as far as I can see. Seems like the Miniguns come out when people run out of explosives. When you get all of those vehicles involved it feels good to unleash the arsenal. I bet some people still lose money even if they win the captures with all of the BOOMS I see.

Yep, I as well lose respect for anybody using a Auto-Shotgun or a Mini-Gun. I can even tolerate grenade launchers and rpgs... but those the other two weapons no-go's as far as i'm concerned.
When it comes to captures... anything goes. That's really what sets TDM and Captures apart IMO.

I probably break even on captures, lol. I don't care because it's fun, if I lost 10k every match I wouldn't care.
Almost every single match I get killed by an auto-shotgun, even full VCCM lobbies. So I'm going to use it from now on, until there is a real rule or something. I'd rather someone complain about it then be killed by it every match.

I haven't unlocked it yet but if an enemy's coming at us in an attack chopper or a jet I have no qualms about crew mates shutting them down with the Mini, and I'll probably do the same. In normal firefights it's a different story.
