Admiral Goo

Can someone please help me as to what they mean by the daze effect? Like getting hit and slowed or?

I'm going to be honest, I have never played the mods for this game I have only had people recommend that I buy it since the mod was amazing. And the game so far is great, yes it does have its problems but what game doesn't? (Talking about the bugs here) but I believe in time they will be fixed I have hope for this game and I am excited for this patch!! P.S. Please don't give shotguns ungodly range!
