the shotguns one hit kill range in halo 3 is way to short.

please copy and paste that link to your address bar.
it shows me (blue elite) with a shotgun shooting the red spartan. i know i blasted the red spartan in the head. i saw the replay of it in theatre. yet the the red spartan still survives. i dont know about you but that should be more than close enough to get a one hit kill.
thats why i think the shotguns one hit kill range should be increased for halo: reach. if bungie could increase the shotguns range to something like the length of yellow grav lift room on guardian that would be great. however, i could see this could make the shotgun horribly imbalanced which is why im all for balancing it. just give it some range that makes it useful other than for camping.
i understand that buckshot deviates from each other. but at that range and even a little more the buckshot should not spread that much. if a battle rifle with its 12 little, wimpy bullets can kill a guy wearing shielded mjolnir armor, than a futuristic, 8 gauge shotgun spewing out several large, jagged chunks of scrap titanium should be more than enough to kill if with in range. but range is the problem, its to short. the shotgun needs to work as the king of short range weapons and not as a camping noob canon. just as long as a guy who carefully attacks with dual smg's or something can take down the king.
please dont flame or troll. these are my oppinions. if you disagree with them then post an intelligent response as to why and if you do agree the support what i have said, thanks!
