Playing it since the very beginning, great game. Im on PS4 so if anyone's down for some cross-platform hit me up.
As for weapons, heavy shotgun is complete shit unless you are headshoting or double pumping with them.
Any tutorials or such to get better? I just loot and then try to fight, a weapon/building guide and even some keybinds ( as in which keys for what) would help rn lol
Besides AR, you should run a pump+tec9. Tec9 is sooo good. If you cant hit with pump, run tac shotgun. Best weapon in game by far is the grenade launcher.
The game is literally 70% building skills and 30% shooting, especially on PC. You need a mouse with side buttons, one button to be set to wall and one to ramp, pyramid is useless on PC and you can set the floor on anything you want that you can hit relatively fast.
Practice building and you'' be fine.
