Hi vielleicht hilft euch das ein bisschen weiter:
kurze Zusammenfassung auf deutsch:
Um die Säge zu stoppen muß man dem "Säger" in KURZER Zeit einen bestimmten Schaden zufügen. Aufgrund der Streuung der Shotty ist dies mit der Shotgun leider kaum möglich (Nur mit sehr genauem Zielen + active reload). Die meisten treffen den Gegner einmal, springen weg und treffen ein weiteres mal. Leider ist zwischen den beiden Schüssen zu viel Zeit vergangen. Der zweite Schuß zählt nun nicht mehr und man kann theoretisch so oft man will auf den Angreifer schießen ohne ihn zu stoppen. Also was tun um die Metzler zu stoppen? Nehmt die Lancer, Hammerburst oder auch die Boltok Pistol. Hiermit erreicht man in einer kurzen Zeitspanne einen hohen Schaden.
So leider hab ich das Ganze noch nicht ausprobiert aber ihr könnt ja mal reinschreiben obs funktioniert...
Hier das Orginal:
Lancer vs Shotgun: Detailed information that can help you.
First. A few quick words about the Lancer's chainsaw itself and how to stop it. If you'd like to test this out, go to a local split screen game or grab a buddy and have him stand still holding the chainsaw revved while you test these.
1. You will not lose a revved chainsaw from a random hit, you will instead lose the revving when you take enough damage in a short period of time to cause "Stopping Power" to show, the half step back that lowers the saw. To test this, get the COG snub pistol and have your friend rev a saw. Shoot him 3 times in the chest in rapid succession. He should lower his weapon. Now have him rev it again, fire a shot, wait half a tic, fire another, wait, fire another. He wont lower it. Same amounts of shots, roughly same damage, but it wasn't in a short enough time frame to cause him to stutter. You need to put enough damage into a target to cause them to stutter to lower their saw. This leads us into point no.2.
2. A shotgun's spread is now the exact same with every stationary shot. Go to canals if you have it, white walls show bullet holes easily. Stand at the spawn and fire at the wall. The spread will be from left to right, Two outer shots, 4 inner shots, then another 2 outer shots. 8 Pellets forming roughly two rectangles. Move to the side, shoot again. Its the exact same pattern. Now actively reload and shoot again. The active reload actually causes your gun to scatter less, causing more pellets to land closer together. The important part to notice here however is that your pellets will scatter in a horizontal spread.
Now the important part. Why does the shotgun not stop the chainsaw so reliably? In the original gears if you hit them at all, they'd lower their saw, and take a stutter. Any damage would cause it, not concentrated damage. Your shotgun wouldn't have to land every pellet, it would just land 1 or 2 and cause a pause in the revving. In Gears 2, you'll need to land a majority of your pellets on the target to cause enough damage in one shot to stutter them. When I see people using the shotgun, they usually fire, dive, fire again, dive away. This is a problem because of the horizontal spread, and i'll explain why.
Someone is rushing at you. You fire at them, but you're not perfectly on center. Lets say two or three pellets hit them, but its not enough to lower the saw. You dive to the side while you're waiting to fire again. Now the time has passed for the original pellets to count towards their Stuttering. You fire again, another 2-3 pellets hit them, but once again this isn't enough to stutter them, and the time it took you to dive away and fire again cause the first 3 pellets to not count. Okay we'll you've "Hit" them twice, and they're still coming at you. They catch you and saw you, you throw the controller down, yell obscenities about chainsaws then respawn next round wondering what happened.
Ways to counter the saw.
-Use an automatic weapon. Multiple shots will lower the saw much faster and allow you to reach the damage you need to lower the saw without them wearing off. Lancers are great for this, and if they get to you and you're not actively being afflicted with the stopping power stutter you'll meet them in a chainsaw duel. Hammerbursts work wonders as well, because they can put more damage per bullet in and still fire fast enough for it all to count towards the stutter.
-Use a better weapon. The shotgun is very badly equipped for a saw coming at you because of the way the pellets spread horizontally, causing only a few pellets to hit them if they're not perfectly on center. If you have a boltok pistol its almost always a guaranteed stutter on them because it reaches the damage limit for stopping power to affect them. A longshot can also do this, without the double zoom if you need to stop them long enough to get away. The new gorgon pistol works well if you can center it a bit lower in their chest since the recoil is so bad.
Conclusion: The horizontal spread on the shotgun causes very few pellets to actually land on the person using the chainsaw if they're not very close or perfectly centered. You need to do either a big hit, or repeated smaller hits in a short period of time to lower the chainsaw now. The shotgun is NOT good for this unless you're a very good shot. Carry another weapon with you whenever you see someone running at you with the saw up.
This post is basically to help you guys out if you find yourself being chainsawed so much from the front. It has absolutely nothing to do with being snuck up upon and chainsawing.
