It's already at 3, 1.5 spread over Doom 2's 5.6, 0. How much more accurate do I have to make this thing just because it has the graphic of a fancy magnifying tube attached to it?

People already complained that the different shotguns had inconsistent speeds before. In any case, his shotgun is meant to be the worst out of the three, weapons of the same tier don't have to be 1:1 with each other, it's more about all the weapons combined.

AHA
Now
that I understand, I know exactly what's causing that, will fix.

Ah, yeah, will fix. Somehow I did not notice until now.

VERY. (jk)
In all seriousness, shotguns in real life don't have much spread over short-to-medium ranges, unless they're sawed-off. Think "Chrome Justice" accurate (2.2, 2.2). It probably has the most realistic spread in a Doom mod that I've seen.
Here's a fun idea... why not give it an alt-fire function that tightens the choke further for use over longer ranges?

i think that would defeat the purpose of simplicity this mod is going for (the only gun using alt-fire is the Halderman Device, and that one kind of makes sense.) plus, it would make the shotgun just a bit too good if you could snipe across unreasonable distances.

Well, the lethal range of most hunting shotguns is around 30-35 meters to hit your target with all of the buckshot...

Alright. Note to self, don't pick Doomguy for Doom 1 unless you want to be handicapped in the shotty department.

oh no not the doom shotgun its so bad for doom
ANYWAY
I've been trying to make a poll for the next weapon sets, but Doom has so much stuff that all the different polling sites I've tried do not give you enough options to list them all.
SO I GET TO DO IT
MANUALLY WHEEE
In no particular order, here's all the possible weaponsets I've considered. Of course, feel free to nominate one that isn't listed if you want, I will add it to the list.
Just make a post with the names of three sets you'd like to see, and eventually I'll tally the results and the three highest will be chosen to be the next set.
- Scythe
Memento Mori
Back to Saturn X
Hellbound
Eternal Doom
The Revolution!
Icarus
Ancient Aliens
Valiant
Stronghold
Demon Eclipse
Alien Vendetta
Community Chest
UAC Ultra
The Darkening

JPCP
Zones of Fear
Estranged
Interception

The Brotherhood of Ruin
Speed of Doom
Unholy Realms
Vile Flesh
Whispers of Satan
Zone 300
STRAIN
ZPack
Minor note in the case of Vela Pax/Counterattack, they will not be released until the actual mapsets are done.

Perdition's Gate, Eternal Doom, Hell to Pay.
I was thinking about nominating that last one for a while but that was because I thought it'd be a bad idea to nominate something that already has a few weapons of its own, and seeing things like Valiant and Demon Eclipse on that list has changed my mind, so now I'm excited to see how H2P's janky prerendered weapons could be reinterpreted.
