Why hasn't the Sawed-Off Shotgun been taken out yet? Give me ONE good reason.

[DBZarmor44]

look it is really easy to get kills with but i has a huge flaw, the gnasher has more bullets and a longer range stop complaining. i personally use the gnasher but it gives variety to the game, plus if people miss their one shot you have a huge advantage over it.

[Surferbro74]

not a main SOS user but have learned to use all type of guns. I'm gonna defend the SOS tho by saying it takes SKILL itself ( wallbouncing, sliding, dodging, etc ) to even get close to the opponent for the kill. Getting close is NOT always easy. and that's a factor a lot of sos-haters are forgetting

As with everything, there are ALWAYS ways to counter certain elements. If people don't like SOS users, then some easy solutions include 1. Sniping 2. Lancering

The main thing it is killing the game is long term Gears players using it. I have fans since day 1 taking the piss with it cos they can. So it leads it to be a camping game with rifles. It is just not as much fun. Had some clan match's without the sos/retro and it was bliss man.

End of the day facts are there, many people are selling copies more so then keeping it. 2000 people vote for a playlist without it. Thats just a small amount of i guess the 1000s more.

EPIC FAIL (Please do something)

Sawed-off shotgun should be removed from MP, just like the vulcain. If they do not remove it, force people to aim(like the one shot) with it and make a old school section beside casual, standard.

[Repenter101]

I don't think it should be removed, but it SERIOUSLY needs to be reworked. It's current state is near-broken.

[ProGamer6690]

It's for noobs, i have an idea! how about after level 25 you can't fucking use it? what's wrong with that? NOTHING! because if you can't use a gnasher by level 25 sell the fucking game because you suck

[Kulharg]

What do you mean by abusing it? I, sorry I don't understand I have mixed feeling about taking it away I like it I have skins for ir I have the execution for it easy kills but I don't understand what you ,mean by abusing the gun

[xInSaNeBrOs]

@Kulharg The sawed-off was designed to get easy kills for new players. People who aren't new players are using it to get easy kills. They're abusing it.

[CeLeTiiCa]

''cheap and easy''

not more to say.

[xInSaNeBrOs]

@CeLeTiiCa Being cheap is not a reason to keep it in the game. Being cheap is a reason to take it out.

[CeLeTiiCa]

@xInSaNeBrOs Yea i just playd against a friend of me which had never a chance in gow2 and in gow3 he kick my ass with sawed off so nooblike this shit :x ah and he use chainsaw too which is easy and cheap too!

[Garkaz]

You say "no one has given me a good reason" because even if there was, you would ignore it because of your original post's bias. I find it pretty pathetic that everyone has to preface these "Sawed-Off should be removed" topics with DO NOT TELL ME TO ADAPT, because that argument completely destroys yours. I acknowledge that this is something of a sweeping generalisation and not all start their argument off with this, but with people like the author of this video it's a pretty common theme.

[xInSaNeBrOs]

@Garkaz Telling me to adapt isn't even a reason itself. You're an idiot who is trying to defend a gun that's undefendable.

[XbLIICostII]

@Garkaz fuck you sawedoff noob....

[Garkaz]

@XbLIICostII Are you serious? Why is it assumed everyone that defends that gun uses it? I don't use it 'cos it sucks balls and is terrible for getting kills vs a gnasher or lancer. It's just not that big a problem, man.

[SomeAsianSwag]

Nope

[xInSaNeBrOs]

@SomeAsianSwag Oh, if it isn't the guy who doesn't go on xbox anymore.

[Kerplunk990]

Remove the Fucking Sawed-off.

It has ruined what Gears of War is Famous for, Close quarters combat.

[xInSaNeBrOs]

@Kerplunk990 That's what mainly pisses me off. The fact that is ruins the CQC.

[gteam123]

i agree with you epic should remove this gun im not that very good with gnasher but the more i use it the bettter i get with it in every match
