Why does everybody jump around as soon as they reach for their shottys? It doesn't really make them that much harder to hit, it just makes them look really really silly.
I must have missed something, can't remember seeing cops and bad guys jumping around with their shottys trying to off eachother, not even in a Stallone or Schwarzenegger movie.  ???
Is it just me?

What I would like to see in the next update would be a significant loss of accuracy when doing the bunny-shotty.

Nah personally I like that jumping hasn't been nerfed yet. It makes for more interesting kind of Q3-style trickjumping which requires a bit of skill. In CS they had that and it made the game better than it is now, with completely nerfed jumping.
The game isn't meant to be 100% realistic remember :)

Initially, there was a bug in SoF2 where the jumping shotty was as accurate as crouching shotty.  This is no longer the case.  The shotty becomes significantly more inaccurate when jumping.  

However, when you are jumping around like a rabid bunny, it is most likely when you are up close and you DO become harder to hit. Since you are so close, the inaccuracy doesnt matter as much.

As for not seeing this is in movies... this is a game, not a simulation.  Similar references to this can be found here (Why Quake is not like real life). :D

yeah the jumpin kind gets on my nerves. its easy to tell where they're gonna land though you just set your crosshairs where hes gonna hit the ground and time it right and thats it for Jumpy McJump.

i jump sometimes but just to make myself look cool. :cool: you know like come running around a corner, jump over a railing and blast some guy in the face killing him. it makes it look really bada$$ sometimes. my favorite is jumping off the roof on finca onto the high walls around the poool then jumping off there to where the case sits, throws em for a loop sometimes. i try to limit myself to only one jump and i try to make that jump my death shot, and its usually around corners. im not one to run up to a guy and start jumping.

i just dont understand that crap, first thing i usually do is run for cover and duke it out that way leaning and corners and what not. im sorry but running head on at someone jumpin just doesnt suit me or sound very tactical.

I don't get why accuracy should get less when jumping, I mean when jumping you already make it harder for yourself to aim anyway. I mean, it's not like bullets fly out to the left from the barrel of a gun when you jump and fire in real life. Making bullets fly out to random sides makes the weapons to real lottery guns.
