Well kagato, it's in the player's hands that make a weapon effective. If you have the skill for it, then by all means, stick to it till the very end. I on the other hand switch weapons 2-3 times on a single level. If I need to snipe then I will switch to sniper guns. Mostly I carry combat shotgun for crowning witches. When that's done and no more witches then I can switch to my leisure. But in l4d 2, I don't find my self using snipers much coz double pistols pretty much gets the job done as far as sniping is concerned. I can kill smokers with a headshot at very long distances with double pistols, took me a lot of practice to be able to do that. I only remember using snipers a lot in the dark carnival and the swamp campaign and the rest is shotgun all the way.
Furthermore, you are all looking at this in a wrong perspective. L4D is about teamwork. In every team there should be a:
sniper for taking out SI that are far away such as smokers and spitters
one or two shotgunners for clearing out hordes and crowning witches
one or two rifle gunners for protecting the team with accuracy and decent reload speed and taking out SI as well.
Hence, a team won't be a able to function well without one because each weapon class is unique and it has its own purposes. Imagine a team of shotgunners. They wouldn't be able to take out the long range SI's or protect their team mates in close range without hitting them with friendly fire.
and you can't run-and-spam-bullets like you can with the spam-throwers (rifles and shotguns).
Also, I think someone here said that spitters are kind of useless. This is not true because when a team is all down to 10 hp, you'd be very afraid of spitters; especially when you play on expert with your friends who like to camp in narrow spaces.
Anyway, at least my combo is more effective than ever. Combat shotgun + double pistols = 1 man army BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
And has anyone played Call of Juarez? The double pistols in l4d 2 sounds like the concentration mode of Call of Juarez which made me love double pistols even more.

Actually, i did deal with it. Called it a buncha bullshit, because thats all it was.. This thread was called "i tried the new hunting rifle", not Kagatos 10000 word essay on why the HR sucks". Nothing i said is personal, im just flat out blunt about it.
Maybe i should make a 20000 page essay on why the AuttoShottie Sucks, and back it up with total bullshit.... I bet people would love that. Oh wait, they would probably call me a complete moron, among other things.
I don't have a problem with peoples opinions, i do have a problem when people decide to make huge posts over and over trying to convince people and "ME" that the HR is garbage just because they don't like to use it or can't use it themselves.
To Kagato, MR Smarty Pants. You want proof, like i said come play with me.!!!WiCkEd VOooOdooooO TerRrroRR!!!

Or we could all go over to Target Practice's house for cookies and agree on how retarded it is to argue about people's preference of weapon over biased points.
