I haven't tried yet, but can you carry both shotguns at the same time? Following up a sawed off miss with a Gnasher shot would make people rage.

Yes you can, I do that sometimes when it's 1v1.

Has anyone found the weapon on Checkout after you press the button?
CliffyB said pressing the buttons spawns a secret weapon in a secret area.

EDIT - Me and some friends think we got it. If you press the button, then the door in the electronics section opens up slightly and a weapon spawn on the ground.

EDIT2 - nvm, I guess someone just dropped a weapon right there. But the doors do open so maybe we have to shoot something in there?

I heard that there will be an "unannounced" new weapon in that location in the electronics store.

BTW, All 4 maps are still available, but only in ranked play, not public, I found that out today when I played my first ranked match lol

The door in electronics opens and a box appears which you can shoot and destroy and a smoke grenade does appear.

Earlier today I was playing public and trenches was appearing, but when we left that match we didn't get trenches all day so it was probably a glitch.

I think if the host of the party played this past weekend, Trenches and Old Town will show up in the rotation. I was playing I'm a party of five with sinfulfate last night and we were playing all four maps in sequence.

Protip for an early lead on Trenches. Grab a Hammerburst and another person on your team with the same setup and at the start of the round go to the nade spawn. As the players on the other team rush the One Shot you can mow them down when they round the corner near the Digger/Scorcher for 2-3 quick kills.

I don't care how many people complain about the Retro Lancer being OP, the Hammerburst with an active reload rapes.

On trenches you can do some serious damage with the mortar just launching it at spawn.

I got my second quad with the mortar there. First quad was on Thrashball with two frags and two dirty wall bounces.

Is it true that your level/exp does not carry over to the retail game? Only the skins do?

Yup, I wouldn't want my level to carry over either. By the time this beta is done I could be close to 25 and that's 1/4 of the leveling system.

I'm getting at least one extra beta code on the 8th for whoever wants it. I may get more depending on how the promotion goes. (Check your emails if you're in the beta already.)

Me, if I can't get one from my brother. I gave away my code to my brother to use since I have finals but I'm really looking to try the game out more.
