Jumping off of ledges and getting a headshot is the closest thing to an action movie my life has.

Wowzers. I can def. tell the 725 has been toned down, but in tight areas it's still a beast.

If the shield 1shots what’s the point of the knife? The shield is already good, it just needs to get used in conjunction with other tools, like throwing knives or a giant honking RPG. That being said, they absolutely should change the double kill requirement because it’s obscenely difficult.

It should, if not, as just a passive benefit, and if you wanna sprint you hold it directly. Shield is just in a bad place now, even as a gimmick. Using it 'in conjunction' now is a death sentence because they removed any interim animation during your throw. The shield literally teleports onto your back the moment you click to toss your knife/grenade etc. Pretty sure it does that when you swap guns too, where it used to have an animation/pose for holding it to the side making you a little vulnerable instead of just wide open shoot-me-please that it is now.

The thing about the jumping is that everyone who does it is a total scrub, just like the belly flopping or dophin diving whatever people are calling it. So it should be addressed, but only to troll them.

The point of the knife is that it's way faster and more mobile. I don't know what kind of hitbox it has when attacking but the shields seems pretty small and the attack is slow. The reason that shields should be a OHK isn't to turn them into unstoppable killing machines, it's simply to make them more survivable during close engagements. This is how I see shield engagements: Long range vs shield - stalemate - a gun user can't effectively use a lethal or find an angle to shoot me. Mid-long range - slight disadvantage - lethals and tacticals come into play and there are likely more angles to be shot. Mid-short range - slightly more disadvantaged - easier to direct impact me with semtex or molotovs. A gunners speed advantage really comes into effect here as it's much essier to slip to a side and start shooting. And that speed advantage also means that tacticals are more dangerous at this range even when using battle hardened. Close range - extreme disadvantage - the only way a shield user has to deal with you here is by bashing but most guns are faster at it even without adding attachments and there are multiple attachments that improve melee ability while the shield has no attachments at all. Plus a gun is way more mobile and can easily get around a shield or simply jump and shoot over it. Making shields a OHK simply changes this type of engagement from heavily disadvantaged to merely being at a regular disadvantage. Edit - even if the shield was a OHK, I would still expect to lose close engagements like 60-70% of the time but it sure as hell would be better and more fun than dying the 90-95% of the time currently.

Not that I ever do this, but I can see using the shield as passive protection from getting shot in the back It’s also pretty good for turtling in hq which I discovered after picking one up off a guy turtling in hq It seems to break peoples’ brains

TMMadman posted:It does track by weapon. I have somewhere around 75-80 kills with the shield and like 800 deaths. My shield is currently at level 31 and my highest actual weapon is 30 and my RPG is 28. Tbh I accidentally punched a guy to death today that was face to face attacking me with a shield and that was an interesting combo of "lol haha" and "hmm idk if that's a legit game move I just did" Also most of the time I die to shields I don't know the guy is there and it's from behind and tbh ....if you get angry at dying that way, lol E: when I get home I'm gonna figure out my shield deaths as an overall % of deaths. Keeping in mind I mostly play hc and realism (tho realistically the brunt of my deaths are on shoothouse, no doubt. Yesterday I spawned next to an enemy sentry. Thankfully the harrier I spawned under killed me first Worf fucked around with this message at 20:21 on Nov 15, 2019 |

Also the knife doesn’t make you run faster than say an smg which is far more useful, and the smg would be even faster with a movement speed attachment or two Personally I think the knife range is way too short, even for a melee weapon, considering it doesn’t make you any faster than a typical loadout. I have found myself chasing after guys by only a foot or so, flailing helplessly at the air The only way for the knife to not be a wasted weapon slot is to have it actually improve run speed

Just played a couple rounds with a suppressor added to the MP5 and them M14 to rack up some kills towards a challenge, none registered  Boy does it make the MP5 wild, M14 much more forgiving (of course)

When I approach someone with a shield I just throw c4 with a super high arch and blow up theirs heads. I’d say about 70% of the time it works every time. The other 30% is me usually blowing myself up.

Semtex is a really satisfying way to shut down a cocky shield guy. Stick'em and run away, laughing. I say this as a guy with a shield in 2 of my 5 custom loadouts, because they are fun and sometimes I get shot in the back and don't die and get to live out my dreams of cosplaying a turtle.

This is definitely part of the reason why I'm frustrated that shields aren't a OHK. Hell, I probably wouldn't even care if it was an attachment and you needed X number of kills before it unlocks.

Balancing the shields offence vs defence is a real tight rope and I'd rather they came down on the side of them not totally shutting you down for having the wrong kind of lethalcodo27 posted:The thing about the jumping is that everyone who does it is a total scrub, just like the belly flopping or dophin diving whatever people are calling it.

I'd rather get killed by dropshotters and people jumping around like crazy than get killed by another guy who thinks that sitting in a corner of a room with a shotgun and your crosshairs parked on a door is considered playing the game.

Plus it's also not true since every lethal in the game except for the throwing knife will destroy any shield user who isn't using EOD. So I'm not sure what exactly the OP is thinking about there.

Knife should deffo give a lil speed boost. Didnt think that a mobility specced smg would be faster but yep. It be. The knife is...better in normal? Since its a onehit - but the advantage is nil in HC. Ill keep playing my naked k98+ knife man in HC Search and Destroy.
