Please nerf shields

System is awesome it allows you to turn around and kill a bad player if they shoot you in the back and it makes killing campers easy because if you can get headshots you are going to win the gunfight even when they get the first shot

Yeah I have buddy's who have unistalled already due to it being that bad

i agree.. i usually hate BR games but i actually like this one but the only problem i have is the shields..they are SO overpowered im so tired of shooting someone 1000000 times and then it feels like i die in 2 hits

I disagree mostly with the complaints.

I think longer TTK is necessary in most BRs; otherwise loot doesn't make much of a difference.

You have to think about how this game doesn't have an instant respawn system like Titanfall. Would you be happy about spending the time (like 10 mins) getting into a game, organizing your team, dropping, getting some loot and then dying in 3 shots to some random person? You would have to repeat the whole process over and over in a lot of cases.

I will say a lot of SMGs should have larger magazine sizes though. They are the only guns I have issues killing reliably with (even close range) unless I have an extended mag.

It really does not take long to kill with most guns though; especially if you are really good at the game. Check out twitch streamers like shroud to see what I am talking about. He wipes squads in seconds a lot of times.

shields are fine smgs just need a little buff

At least other people see it too. I know of 15 people alone that deleted it. Then word of mouth gets around and then playerbase starts to drop. Ttk is a issue just needs to be tweaked is all

I dont get this argument: It took 1000s bullets to kill them and then I get killed in 2 bullets.

I feel the game is balanced in regards to shields and TTK. HAving the ability to respond to being ambushed with more than a split second makes the game enjoyable.

It especially enables new players to learn, if the TTK is lower, they get wiped out easily and never get a chance to learn and just leave. We have to agree, the more players that are playing and becoming skilled makes for a far better community. Which then ensures some coin is spent in the item shop and the devs have the resources to continue to improve and enhance the game.

Even streamers are bitching about it loool its worse then any game I have played in terms of ttk

The problem i find is theres rarely any purple gear for me, I'm mostly in white, blue if i am lucky, so i get insta gibbed in seconds, no time to react.purple/gold armoured enemies have days to react. Should just be one tier shield, let skill take its course.nothing worse than RNG advantages.
