Fix Shields!

Dont let them shield back up then ?!?!?! 🤔🤔🤔🤔

@RockScorpion384 It literally takes 2 sec to shield up. If you damage someone from a decent distance, there's no chance for you to get to that player before he/she shields up!

If you let them shield back up thats your fault  🙌 Also it takes 2 seconds per shield cell, so to get back to full thats 8 seconds. 8 seconds when you couldve engaged them.

Engage hard when their shields are down they will be wanting to recharge them, deny them that opportunity.

That is 2 seconds you can spend advancing or getting into a better position.

I lied, its actually 3 seconds per shield cell. Thats 12 seconds in total. If you are pinging people off from across the map with a sniper, yeah you wont be able to act on it. In CQC, where the majority of the game is played, you barely have enough time to pop one shield cell before the enemy charge at you. Maybe stop engaging at such long distances where you cant react to an enemy getting low.

No. The shields are perfect.

they're fine as-is. the repair/healing system in this game is the only thing that gives you a chance to turn things around when people ambush you, it would be really cheap and lame in an open world BR game if you were guaranteed to die to every person who shot at you first. shooting first =/= you deserve the kill. plus, being able to take ground slowly and repair and move again is the only way to dislodge campers from high ground, they have an easy time shooting anyone on the ground but when you shoot back at them you can maybe only see 10% of their model. you have to be able to take cover and heal up to continue to move against them.

this isn't the kind of game where you're supposed to run around killing people in 3 bullets. you have to out-think and out-maneuver your enemies. there are thousands of other FPS games where you can easily kill people in .5 seconds.
