Also, it looks silly when you munch it, the way the thing always slides open/closed. Especially when you're spiking it, even more if you have primal scream.
After upgrading to Weaponupgrade 1, you can chose weaponupgrade 2 or shotgun. If you upgrade to shotgun, you will lose your lmg and receive a shotgun. Every time you respawn you will receive a shotgun fom now on. After this, 2 new upgrades will be available: HMG and GL.
that kind of sucks... I can see these types of posts if NS:C is released w/o letting you choose between guns you've already payed for: "I paid for a shotty and HMG, pay for my shotty again? WHAT?" and then: "Why can't i choose between the two guns, that i've already paid for?" and then the worst one: "WTH? CANT HAVE 2 GUNS, AND SWITCH BETWEEN THEM?!"
If i was a marine, i know i'd put the weapon in a weapon's locker so i could choose between the two later on... what good is paying for a shotty, then a HMG and GL only to spend another point to get another shotgun, and then TWO MORE points to work your way up to use the GL once more?! <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo--> *scratches head and sits on the floor*
I'm not sure whether or not you can spend more points to get a gun you already had, seeing as I've never tried it... Suffice it to say that if it's possible, nobody ever does it, Maveric; you buy a gun you're satisfied with using the rest of the game.

yeah, but team play can be annoying when you shoot a guy and almost kill him, and then your teammate gets the last shot... Luckily, you do get experience points when a teammate kills someone and you're nearby.
