The Original Shotguns that where introduced, Took & Still take 2 Shots to kill someone within a 5m Range.

Yet you can fire 2 Shells in the same time it take to fire 1 Pump action shell.

You are including the reload time for the pump, why? I don't care how long it takes my opponent to reload after he kills me. The pump-wielding guy clicks, and it insta-fires/kills. The other-shotty guy clicks, it insta-fires, then reloads, then fires (oh wait, no it doesn't reload, because he's dead). Even if the other-shotty guy gets off the first shot and reloads before the pump-guy fires, he still has to aim the second shot accurately.

Unfortunately - the technical issues are a BIG deal.

I also think we're starting to see the weaknesses of the F2P model for a game like this... and how it can negatively affect development.

But you do know that shotgun isn't always instakill in combat situations, right? I've used it enough to know. And I checked youtube too, I recommend checking it out too to see this. There are a few videos with above average players playing with pump action and it's not as easy as people say. Everyone that is against pump actions always goes with "you just click the button and people die", when in reality, you'll have to aim and normally it's 1-4 shots to kill. Even at the shotgun sweetspot range of 0-5m. Maybe with aimbot, one could continually get one shot kills, but even then some of the pellets might miss.
