2. Engagement tactics. Essentially what ALL of CoD is. You make sure that when you engage, you engage on your own terms. As opposed to running at each other with guns blazing. Which some people still do. A low TTK encourages this. Think Dark Souls. Rewarding skillful play is always a good move when making design decisions. Except camping properly is... also an example of skillful play. In which case we have ways to flush out campers, right?

Its important to have a good balance however. To low of a TTK can end up when you get the jump on the guy, burst, then the guy you are shooting at, turns around and fires a better gun and kills you first. With such a large variety of weapons you have to be careful that the guy with the better gun doesn't usually win.
Personally, I feel the TTK is a bit low, but not so much that I feel that its a big issue. But I do feel OHKs lower the skill ceiling, and with shotties should not exist.
