Shield dude too OP?

[Juna-Tah]

Think he's broken, can just rush you with no real way of stopping him (shooting the face shield does nothing.) and on top of that if he's your teammate, you can shoot straight through his body/deployed shield.

nah

[CatTank]

They need to follow rainbow six example, have it just knockdown only, no damage.

It's not only that, he also gets less dmg when he has shield equipped. You need around 10-15 bullets to the head with 5.56 to actually kill him (gold ammo vs purple helmet)

And I was above him, shooting OVER his shield from 10meters

im talking about in warfare mainly.

it concerns me that people keep saying to shoot for the head shield but it does nothing?

The glass eventually breaks, it just takes more than entire mag with most rifles, which makes it entirely pointless.

The guy needs to be nerfed, his sprint needs to be fixed to not flop around the shield randomly, deflecting bullets and his movement and turn speed along with bash range need to be lowered.

Compared to 2042 dozer they even made him extra more annoying by giving him a grappling hook that works on people, which is absurd.

Not only that but he also receives reduced damage so he can take half a mag to his bare back, overall it's an overtuned character.

More than 1 standard AR magazine? jesus christ no wonder he can't be killed, dude can run at your from mid range and be fine, wtf.

[Noodlesocks]

Nah, shield is only useful on certain maps in certain situations. Largely useless in most situations.

[breathe air]

you can also UPGRADE his shield by having a shepherd throw a sonic trap ONTO his shield, now youve got a mobile sonic trap thatll slow you down if the shield dude gets close then your just absolutely fu- frfr

[musAmie -VACxiety-]

i think a riot shield has no place in an extraction mode anyways but if they really want to keep that campie bs make it so that there can be only one in the team. also i just got to try r93 m80 on one, 3 hits straight into the faceshield and not even cracked.. u cant tell me its not op the way it is rn. ofc u can play around it with util as luna or whatever but as soon as u face more than one its gg

warfare mode sineva is strong
operations mode sineva is weak af
if you ever have any troubles fighting sineva in operations you need to aim better
the face window is easily breakable with a full auto gun, if you get hooked then shoot the hook, if you see his razor wire, melee it to get rid of it, if you are chased by a sineva just run away, he is very slow
if you're hackclaw, you can just blind him, if you're uluru you can just burn him, if you're luna you can electrocute him
his view turn speed is slower than others, especially in operations so you can also make use of that
only noobs dont know how to handle sineva in operations

exactly, he's OP.

[🅱orlock The Sober?]

1000% needs balancing. Headshot bro with an entire mag and it doesn't kill him, what the ♥♥♥♥ were the devs thinking?

[RG_Bas4x4]

They should atleast make the shield bullet proof from 2 sides. I find it already strange your bullets fly through your teammates but shooting through the back shield by teammates is not very balanced in my opinion.

[Guy Knightley]

Shot for the glass in front of his face. he isnt OP at all.
