you can choose shotgun as standard weapon? ohh nooooo! even more guys camping behind a wall only watching the radar waiting for someone? don't want these noobs!

For some reason, I don't see a lot of camping in Reach. Camping is my prefered style of play on MW but I just can't on Halo. I don't know if it's just me but it seems harder to camp on Halo.

the problem i see is, on most maps shotgun guys aren't a real problem if you are careful (but on countdown they are) and i play with shotgun as well, sure, but if you give people the opportunity to choose it as standard weapon, there will be games (sure not all) with the whole team choosing shotgun and then? i won't go through the small areas on the map then because behind every corner could wait a head shot and they won't leave these areas because they won't get some shots from the br/dmr on an open area without the chance to win. could maybe mean that there will be some stupid games without any action (only grenade throwing^^)

maybe this will never happen but i believe i will have some of these games lol

I hear what you are saying but we know way too little at this point to be concerned. I have faith that 343 will do what it takes to keep things balanced. For all we know, being able to choose your weapon like that may only be in a specific playlist or game type. Even in that shotgun scenario, at least you will have a chance to take out the shotgun camper with Promethean Vision and a shotty of your own. Like Stannis said, "The dwarf has played his little trick, he can only play it once".
