you really never use a chaingun? i rely a lot on it.. tried only shotgunning till i got a rocketlauncher, but that just takes much longer, unless you close in, which means you take much more damage.
Im a fan of shotgun like weapon. I dont know, using chaingun or plasma rifle doesn't give the feeling of power (even if they are powerfull).
And its a big weakness, since shotgun are awfull against meaner foes, except for the double shotgun and this is the rarest weapon ever (and my favorite too... what a shame!) and since I do not pick traits for the chaingun or plasma rifle, using these get kinda pointless, so I start using rocket a lot and I tend up dying a lot, since its my only weapon against those god damn baron.
And god can tell you what happened when I first saw an arachnotron :P
