Unconfirmed for Early Access / final release
- Final Early Access and release values for M500 remain unconfirmed.
- Damage, handling, price, availability, and compatibility can change with a new Build.
How to Use It
Use the M500 for its observed shotgun role only when the squad can support its ammunition, replacement cost, and current objective.
Strengths
- M500 has a documented place in the pre-release catalogue rather than an inferred real-world role.
- Its visible shotgun classification makes it comparable with records in the same catalogue filter.
- Unknown fields remain visible, which prevents an old test-build value from becoming a permanent recommendation.
Cautions
- Pre-release price, handling, damage, availability, and unlock conditions can change before or during Early Access.
- A catalogue identifier does not prove final attachment, ammunition, or progression compatibility.
- Use the Build label on every fact before comparing this record with newer footage.
