This game definitely needs dedicated servers that are region and ping locked. However my VoC and Vanquisher frequently beat Suros users. As for dying at the hand of shotgun/fusion users, players need to pace themselves better. My KD is ok however I rarely die by shotguns or fusions. Mainly because I always play with the same group of people and we play clash more than anything else. Instead of running all over the map we'll end up controlling portions of the map and force the enemy to come to us which makes surviving in this game much easier.
