I use double shotty a lot for later levels, I take a few hits this way, but they die quick.

I hate the rocket too, can't use it most of the time without damaging or kiling myself.
I use shot guns for close encounters, I switch to this when exploring small rooms and tight corridors, I quick blast and you can duck around a wall. Switch to chaingun or plasma when exporing cities and open spaces. For rockets I first locate a baddie then step back and prepare the launcher then blast it from a safe distance. Never explore new terrain with a prepared rocket launcher!!

Hey, if any of you checked out the YAVPs, the traits that people take seem to be common:
It's becouse everyone takes them (surprisingly there is no reload or hellrunner on the list).
Actually, the game is winnable without any traits.

and end inventory, everyone had chaingun but only 1 person had a shotgun.
The shotgun is usefull as long as there are walls to hind behind.

rofl, I use them in the exact opposite manner, chainguns and plasma for corridors, rockets for open spaces. I reserve the shotgun for close-midrange battles that I didn't mean to get into (opening a door to find out theres a lot of unhappy people on the other side) late game (if i get there) i'll use the double shotty as an opener and then switch to something with range, then reload it all after the fight is over
