    $hits getting pretty stupid when 1/2 the team uses this setup. i like the idea of frag rounds, but it needs to have a neutral or negative effect compared to other weapons, not completely own them.

    They should nerf USAS-12 FRAG rounds. Bacause if you use any other shotgun (like 870MCS or M1014 or DAO-12) with frag rounds, they are useless compared to USAS. USAS is waaaay overpowered with frag rounds. But I think that 870MCS with SLUG rounds is also overpowered. Because if you use any other shotgun (even USAS-12) with slug rounds, they useless compared to 870MCS. This is from my experience...

    For real? Guess you guys just can't handle the heat. You know, sometimes when you're just getting slaughtered if feels really good to bust out the USAS12 with Frags and waste some fools. Why do yall have to be such kill-joys? If you nerf frag rounds on the USAS 12 then please, for the love of God, make it to where the MAV cannot kill people. It's a tool used for reconnaissance...not a weapon.

    I Agree with the frag round nurf. I think the frag round on the USAS or the MK3A1, was way too overpowered. It annihilated the battle field.

    LOL compared USAS vs 870. I will just say - rate of fire

    if it says u anything...

    Nice that they will nerf the USAS frag rounds. The problem is that all the other shotguns lose rate of fire when you shoot with the frag rounds. But the USAS was bugged and didn't lose any fire rate at all. This and the full auto on the weapon really made it quite annoying.

    Very nice that it will be nerfed.

    Are you even speaking English? I'm sure you had some relevant point, but it was lost in your complete idiocy. Try again...

    If I get hammered I usually rethink my strategy or my squad's strategy (if/when I have a squad that can listen) and then apply the new strategy. It works most of the time. The trick is to stay cool and not rage like a newbie. Maybe being an ex-hardcore gamer helps. Maybe. Sure sometimes I also reequip my best/favorite weapon but I never go for the overpowered ones (like the USAS (fag edition) or the foregrip famas) or for the exploits (like mounting the MAV and flying/hiding in hard to reach spots). That is low and is damaging the community. It also limits your skill and shows how big of an a**hole you can be.

    I agree, they should nerf it earlier.

    lol, usas's got no chance to win with 870 on short distances (<4meters)

    i agree that spamming with USAS frag is very annoying and noobish.
    but if you would like to play normal with it and also get kills at medium range then this update will make that harder :(

    Never a good idea to have fully automatic explosive weaponry like USAS with frag rounds in a game. Shouldn't really be in the game at all.

    Yeah nerf them so they're completely useless, in fact nerf every weapon so they're ALL useless, just remove all weapons and introduce handshakes to the game so we can all walk around giving each other handshakes.

    The USAS Frag rounds have already been nerfed and are no where near as effective as they used to be, a further nerf will only see them never/rarely used again.

    Sweet! a gun that no one uses, awesome!

    While your at it why don't you nerf the AEK, the MG36, the RPG, the SMAW, the M320, because I get killed by them a lot to.

    FFS.
