Hmmm..too overpowered ? Not good =/ I hope you at least added some kind of heavy recoil, or/and longer reloading times to balance it out.

well for one thing, it costs more than the old shotgun. Additionally, it is slower to reload and has more kick. Well i suppose i should specify that. To TOTALLY reload the M4 Shotgun takes 6 and a half seconds. But you can do it one shell at a time which takes .8 of a second per shell. the REFIRE rate of the M4 is 1.5 seconds. This is the amount of time it takes to fire and pump the gun to make it ready for the next shot The Hunting shotgun has a REFIRE rate of 2 seconds , and the RELOAD time is wrapped up in this, because it's a single shot weapon. So techincally speaking, the M4 can deliver more lead more quickly over a short period of time while at full capacity, but the Hunting shotgun delivers it much more steadily if it was over time. Hope that explains it additionally, the Hunting Shotgun bullets do 80 damage while the M4 Rounds do 50, so there's that difference too. Believe me though, the Hunting shotgun will be considerably more difficult to attain.

lol personally i would prefer a speedier reloading weapon...never know when those lil fugly's will back u into a corner i wish u guys would make the knife a little better though...everytime i try taking on those bastards with knife they slap me around like a 2 cent whore and make me thier bitch rofl so im backed into a corner swinging away and they just eat me alive then the rest of em show up and its game over lol...another nice thing would be respawning ammo or atleast the option server wise to turn ammo respawn on\off...

Eh, you're not supposed to be able to do much with the knife. We'll have better melee weapons like the axe, bat, and (naturally) the chainsaw, but if it's early-game and you're out of ammo, etc., and there's only one, knifes are okay. Especially if it's you and a couple others ganging up.

dont be so quick to demote knives... "what good is a knife in a nuke fight sir?" lol i have seen people do some amazing things with knives myself included i study some form of martial arts and have seen first hand that a knife wielded in the hands of a pro can be very effective weapon...im not saying the knife should be super lethal because that would unbalance the mod but it should be easier to hit the zombies with it and do a tiny bit more damage not much but just a bit more so that if im reloading my gun and get rushed i can quickly whip up my knife and start slashing to save my ass then finish reloading lol...but whatever not my mod not my call...
