Combat Shotgun Buckshot
Tweaks the CSG’s primary fire to feel better and more effective at mid-range and more consistent at close range, without increasing damage to single targets. Remains low utility, but feels a lot better when you do use it.
Optional full-auto tweak makes the full-auto mod into close-range crowd-shredder and single-target melter (able to kill Heavies in <1 second at point blank) to make it feel more comparable in utility to sticky bombs. Risky point-blank usage with the mastery is just non-stop carnage.
Installation (Microsoft Store version not supported):
Download the latest version of DoomModInjector, and place it in your DOOMEternal install directory (e.g. C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\DOOMEternal\).
