A few stereotypes about Shaft I wish would die


 Share

Recommended Posts

Once a shaft hit me when I jumped a little tiny bit above a barrier (some lagger pushed me). I always complement shafts when they do impressive things like that.. but knocking out key defences isn't exactly impressive.

Stop calling Shafters noobs. Are real-life snipers noobs?

 

Real life snipers have to accommodate the wind altering a bullet's path, calculate the drop of the bullet, etc.

 

TO snipers sit and move their shafts.

we're long-range supporters.

 

I generally take out key defenses at the enemy base from a distance

 

We're usually covering key areas, like the cliffs and flag positions in Rio.

You sound very interested and engaged in the gameplay of this game... you remind me of me when I was your rank  :P

real life snipers don't have a laser attached which shows were they are aiming. Moreover no one pushes a real life sniper while he is aiming.

Wow u just reminded me of counter strike and uberstrike. I remember in uberstrike I once hid in a tree with my MSR ( a sniper rifle) no one saw me and I got 36 headshots without anyone ever noticing me.

Shaft is bae, sure it wont get you the 1k+ exp on 15 minutes poly cp that isida/viking will, in maps like arena people will just out dps tf out of you aaand it turns slower than the clock at the funeral, but i love it. :wub:

I made shaft my side gun after purchasing guardian, but still use it, and will use alot more after i get a mid-range hull.

With shaft its all about putting the damage in the right places in the right amounts.

 Playing with shaft is mind games, a good shaft can camp countless spots effectively by being aware of his surroundings. a very good shaft always gets the laser where the action is, too many just wait for the action to come to them. 

 

 

There are many,many very hard skills you need with shaft: jump shots, quick scopes on bad terrain, shooting that isida max damage right before you die so he wont get any self heal, trapping enemies between your laser and a deadend, surviving an attack by short range weapon by manipulating him on a trap, making enemies hit walls, miss, block their team, not enter important areas and the list goes on 

And people hating on it because it can shoot long range with ease, well it's still hard to get kills on covered areas or on short range, and i don't see people complaining on how easy rico is to aim at mid range.

Calling shaft an easy weapon is a sign of ignorance. :(

Bae = poop

 

therefore you love the poop turret

No problem man. 

Actually I quit using it around the rank of master sergeant, now I have a few alts where I go back for that nostalgia rush.

I don't camp. I'm what you call a active shafter, not passive

Hahah, 

 

''Because Shaft sir.

I can one-shot stock Viking M3's without double damage... try that with your teeny tiny raily raily.''

Don't forget Grannies :lol:

 

Btw, I wonder why people just don't get Shaft in Save the Gold and kill the defenders when they don't have Double Armor activated :mellow:

REAL LIFE snipers, your wannabe video game emulations don't count.

Shaft M3 on DP CAN 1 shot any hull who isn't using supplies.

 

Yeah but Isida's will be on you in seconds.

Unfortunately we can't see who's got drugs on, when we use the scope.

 

I couldn't succeed so far because those battles are generally hold in smaller maps. :unsure:

Did you manage to kill one of defenders before?

It has to be, even something as Mammoth M4 will be destroyed at the time you respawn and recharge. :lol:

Ahh well, they're more fun if your friends are defending and you'll be attacking.

 

It's kinda dull with the Russian's saying hasgdfahsdfgbdfm
