Ah. DCC's has removed the push force of the Shotgun and drastically reduced its damage.
Try vanilla 2.5.2 on a map with bots. You'll feel the difference. :o)
Shotgun, why I think it's overpowered as a starting weapon.

Right... the shotgun in the default 2.5.2 is indeed too much. Seems to be fixed in SVN, the shotgun there is clearly less powerful (at least over the 2.6 gameplay which is default in SVN now).
<Taoki> ... So maybe the new colored bars under the sbar weapons could indicate ammo level rather than accuracy stats.

Do you wont, because its already nerfed to bits. dps aren't even close to yer planet killer shotty. Besides you wont be able to aim with that motion and damage blur messing up your screen constantly

At least I finished what I was working on with motionblur/damageblur and it made it into the engine successfully -- I don't see your vehicles in default Nexuiz yet, hmm.
