I use them when I get sick of the assault rifle. THey work really well actually - at short range of course. They take a good chunk out of the enemy

The shoot gun unit is usless in the under map because its too big and has to many open places. Once the games comes out and there a some different maps, the shoot gun troop will actually be useful

You just walk into your building and see an enemy engineer planting his C4. You go to an upgrade panel, hit E then 2, and go BANG, dead engineer. Then go back and hit E then 4 and disarm his C4. Also, it's fun to watch a $1000 dude get blasted by a freebee. Only works if they're real close but it's fun. [ February 24, 2002: Message edited by: Crazy Ivan ]

well actually the shotgun trooper works well in those metallic tunnels that lead to diff parts of a base. I stink at killing, yet by guarding just this area as a trooper i easily took out 3-4 soldiers

Staying in tunnels killing invaders IS helping your team, especially if no one else on your team is smart enough to realize that people DO actually use those tunnels and CAN actually get past your AGT/Obelisk into the base without dying...

The range of the shotgun is really really really short. If you don't get the target rectangle around a unit then it's to far away. The shotgun is very deadly within range, I have met som guys making good use of it. The only way to avoid it is to back as fast as you can. Isn't it strange that they are actually called rocket soldier when you aim at one?

Laser rifle is deadly enough. Try for head-shots just in case though...the laser gun easily eats GDI's grunt-soldiers.

i use the shottie everytime we restart a level and continue to use it throughout the game. i am always ranked in the top 3 by the end of the game. The shottie is awesome if you can get close to enemies. I really dont find this difficult to do on Under.

Its partially under ground. Just stand in your base and look up. The base is surrounded by a partial cave. Big ol' hole in the ceiling.
