SHIELD NERF PLS!

[Kreyg3r]

I dont know what Overkill thought about that, but the shields now turn 360 in half a second.
Itried to outflank them but its inpossible, cause as soon as I am behind the shield its already turned around.


So I ask overkill to PLEASE nerf the shields turning rate a bit.

Thanks.

rly? they would never do that, shields are not hard just rush them and sometimes they are stupid
they turn at your teammate so u can kill him

HE shotguns

Its cause there are so many ways to deal with shield now. From getting the skill to knock them down/make them spin around easily, to snipers, fire, HE shotguns, armor piercing bullets, sentry guns, throwables, etc. Theres just so many other ways to kill a shield then just trying to flank them that the improved A.I doesn't make a difference.

[Peanits]

They'll track you perfectly while they're moving. Not sure if it's intended or not. Just try to nail them while they're standing still.

[Terminator01]

They turn around that fast since over a year.

Also use sniper rifles, grenades, HE-shotguns or the Shock and Awe skill if you can't outrun them.

[Shaggyman]

Play on a lower difficulty lol

[Rex]

You can use the "SHOCK AND AWE" skill to knock over shields or you can use HE/Sniper rounds.

Shields are no problem once you get used to ShockAndAwe tho... never have problems with them anymore

HE rounds....

in my experience yop , but sometime (always ) they are afflicted with ai stupidity and see something shiny let their guard down and BOOM HEADSHOT ... or you can just throw a grenade on them , or snipe them , or sentry ap round , shock and awe
or if dlc owner a molo , he round , grenade lauch them , etc

Eh, I can see difficulties outflanking them depending on the map (some areas feature tight corridors) and build (ICTVs cutting your mobility a good deal, notably) as well as presence of other enemies that can make trying to get behind a shield not a viable option. Slow tanks can leave the outflanking to the players with lighter but still combat-worthy builds.

HE shotgun is probably the most efficient approach that doesn't take skill points (i.e. Shock and Awe, or investment in making turrets more effective). Grenades will work, but a grenade case asset only holds three so it's wasteful if you're throwing them at a single shield instead of in the middle of Winters's phalanx... while an ammo bag effectively provides quite a few HE shotgun shells. With either you don't need to fuss about aiming at the head through the shield, too.

They turn around so fast only when they are on the move, if they stopped they turn much slower. I think.

With the current movement speed, you can outrun the shield and hit his back easily. Even if you aren't able to do it, there are a bunch of other ways to kill shields, like snipers, incendiary ammo, explosive ammo, teammates...
