Or just blow it up with your shotgun.

This might be little off topic, but is the shotgun only weapon which can destroy locks from doors? Can you use explosives like grenades or C4/IED?

-Three pages and the "exploding table" video hasn't been posted yet?

(It would be here if I could find it )

They're breaching shotguns. Logically, they fire breaching charges (it's kind of a design flaw for close range).

I've actually heard from few players that you can kill civilians with the shotgun, not receiving the punishment you would, if you would kill them with your standard issue assault rifle.

So does this weapon works as a 2nd method on "non-lethal" method of taking down civs, next to restrainers?.. And the lethal method of running them over with vehicles

PR 0.85 manual says the shotgun is another way to arrest civilians.

Can someone answer to my earlier question: Can you blow locks from doors with well placed c4/ied?

You should see what the shotgun can do to a tank

Err are you pointing to the in-game tank or real life tank? Maybe the shotgun is the new WMD

I really just wanna spread that rumor so I see a ton of videos of people charging tanks with shotguns

As far as I know, shotguns in PR are amazingly ineffective against tanks







unless you hit them in their special spot

NO, BAD OKITA... stop making things up!

Okita is right, they won't work against tanks... unless you find the special ammo of course.

Aswell as finding the secret spot.

lol devs teasings anyway does explosives work aganist the doors too? never checked this one.

well i would like to see at least the locks on gates being destroyable by normal rifles, maybe after 4-5 shots from them.

As for the tanks, hehe i'm sure one day we can overrun a tank with shotguns alone

I've had an IED blow open those barred green doors on Korengal and Fallujah with the plain chain lock on them. The trick was placing the explosive outside by the door, not directly on it. After detonation, the green gate opened.

On one occasion in Basrah, a squaddie needed ammo from a second story cache, but the first floor's door was locked with those wooden breachable doors. So he planted an IED on the door directly.

Ka-boom, fiery explosion and a scream of pain later, the cache was destroyed by the IED, and ironically, the door remained intact. It was funny from "It's just a game" point-of-view, and everyone didn't seem to mind all too much, after we explained it was an accident.

Vehicles can take down those doors too.

many dont know that, but you can sacrifice your incendinary to breach doors.
doesnt seem to work with gates though.
