I seem to do pretty kick ass with a shotgun and a rocket launcher but that's just me. :)

Well, combo... I don't really have one. I tend to use just one gun all the time, and that is the pistol. Both of your guns are good, but you are kind of screwed for far away. The shotgun is too slow even at mid-range and will get you killed if your opponent is skilled with the pistol, and neither of the weapons are good at long distances. The rocket launcher might get a few people by surprise, but it runs out of ammo quickly and if you miss once, you are dead. This is at least by mine and the standards of those I usually play with.

you are fine without a pistol too.. and last time i checked, you couldnt jsut start off with whatever weapon you wanted... so the whole ssm/ shotgun combo probably wont work unless you are playing people that cant kill you--so get some competition.

see, its deathmatch, so if you have a ssm/shotgun combo and you dont die at all, chances are that you wouldnt die with either of the rifles, which in my mind are the weapons you want to have...

id say the one thing you need to pick up is nades, then you are set to kill kill kill

rocket launche shotgun? You have no long range weapons that way, worst combo ive ever heard of, instant death against anyone good if you ask me, pistol and the sniper, or pistol and pretty much anything else owns, I always carry the pistol unless were playin people who really suck like u, nuff said.

I don't have a gun combo. I tend to change my combo on what the people I'm facing are like. If they suck then I'll have a rocket launcher and Needler to make the game interesting. If they are quite the marksman then I'd probably have the Sniper Rifle and Pistol in my palms.
