c4 needs a nerf

[Head Trauma]

I went on the r6 official website and noticed how bad the pick rates became for shields, I think there are 2 reasons for this, netcode (obvs) and how cheap and hard 3 armored players deal with c4 , the radius and amount of damage the thing can dish out is contradicting the tactical feel of rainbow six siege. Even when people are not playing shield its still cheap as hell and never fun to go up against. And whats even worse is that so many operators have access to it, and of course players are going to take advantage of what this hellspawn is capable of. All i want are some modifications for the c4 to make it avoidable or more tactical cause right now this little ♥♥♥♥ can take out everything and anything with the push of a button.

You obviously need to play the shield more then. A good shield player laughs at pitiful attempts to kill you with nitro.

i just bumrush them when they c4

ubisoft might as well nerf everything...come on now...get better...so silly.

c4 throwing animation already got nerf lad. it far slower than what it was, plus update 3.0 even remove c4 from frost. if they gonna nerf something mac10 sniper is what deserve to be. at least remove that acog. i lost count how many times i killed glaz from my build with that pocket sniper.

I actually think the blast radius/dmg if C4 is perfectly fine, I just think the throw distance needs to be nerfed. The fact you can throw C4 as far as a grenade is absurd. The number of times I've been killed outside because a defend throws C4 across an entire room, and way out a window is unbelievable. C4 should have to be placed beforehand as an ambush, or if thrown it should land near them and be risky to use. Currently its a free kill you can throw 30m+ which is absurd IMO.

Nitro doesn't need a nerf, shields just need a buff. Unless you're using Montagne it's incredibly easy to get rushed and knifed, crossfired, or just Nitro'd if you're in a bad position (like a stairwell). Unfortunately a lot of the problems with shields are lag based. All someone has to do is erratically move side to side while shooting at your head and they'll either catch you peeking or get a quick shot around your side because of the terrible netcode. It's a problem that really can't be fixed without just making a bigger problem.

I wish there would be a button to toggle automatic c4 to detonate when enemies are near, just like in terrorist hunt. And apparently frost and thermite will not have nitro cells after the new patch. So OP might be happy with that.

Nah man. It's fine. C4 is the counter to shield.

If you nerf the C4 range .......then Shield will be OP as ♥♥♥♥.
You have to go close to them to throw it and then they could get a easy headshot.


So....
Only have 1 thing to say : GET GOOD SKRUB.

get good? you find it impossible to take down shields without c4 and you tell me to get good? Shields are far from op, even without c4 in the mix, you can flank them, shoot their exposed areas, or just melee them, nitro cells just make shields a inconvienence at best and thats why I find them unfair. nitro cells encourage rash decisions that will go unpunished.

Have you tried to use montagne's extendable shield? It's totally useless because a defender can just walk up to him no problem and c4 him in the face.

Dogde or not idk what sort of ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ you're playing with but when I use c4 I've got a 100% kill rate unless I ♥♥♥♥ up in throwing it right.

hiding around corners = easy dodge lol....the wall takes up the blast damage radius.

Then they're stupid because they didn't do it right.
