A Shotgun Issue That ISN'T Whining About Being Killed By One

We typically correlate the term and/or idea of "ghost bullets" with hand cannons. But recently, I've been having an issue with my shotgun firing soft bursts of air at people at point blank range. Seriously. Perfect hit, Guardian completely within my sights, [i]well[/i] within even the lowest range shotgun range, pull the trigger on my Champion (reinforced barrel, putting it on par range+damage-wise with Matador, PC+1, CT-D, etc), feel the shot fire, see the recoil on the screen, and… poof! Nothing. The first few times, I did what anyone would do: I pulled out my Ghost and looked at the connections. It wasn't a red bar. So I assumed what, again, most anyone would assume: maybe it was some green bar lagging. But I wasn't noticing any other glitching or teleporting or anything. Now, though, it's been happening often enough to really irk me, and I find myself wondering if this is a prevalent issue that others are noticing with increasing frequency. I'm not what most would call a "shotgun warrior" (though I guess some people throw that title around at anyone who uses a shotgun even sparingly). I don't run around with nothing but my shotgun in my hands the entire match. I keep my primary out, and do quick swaps to my shotgun as the situation requires. These days, most of my kills come from my Her Revenge or my Aegis (occasionally my Imago, or my Mida once in a great while). So it's not like I'm seeing this issue [b]ALL[/b] the time, because I'm not holding/firing my shotgun nonstop. Is anyone else seeing this happen a lot?

  • Ye trying to do shotgun bounty today ran in a room today saw a warlock hard scopeing on his own I walked up aimed down sights point blank headshot down sights with a party crasher he only took half damage. I played the match out was lucky to get two shotgun kills. I then deleted my PC deleted the stupid bountie and gave u. Crucible worse than ever less and less players everyday. More and more fire teams of red bar sweats playing like they think their bad connection is skill. F u Bungie.
