How to Play Haymaker

Play Aggressively

The Haymaker is a semi-automatic shotgun that can deal lethal damage at close-quarters combat, which works best when playing aggressively as you'll be able to run and gun with ease.

However, keep in mind that the damage output isn't all that great, so you'll have to consistently spam your bullets to wipe out your foes.

Don't Force Long-Range Fights

Avoid shooting at targets who are further away from you as you won't be able to damage them effectively. Instead, you'll either have to patiently wait for them to come near you, or you can take the initiative and charge towards them.
