This is ridiculous. The riot shield community is small but we enjoy using it in the game. There were already PLENTY of counters to the riot shield. Thermites, Semtex, RPGs, stun grenades and the melee knife.

There was no reason to slow down the throwing knife animation THAT MUCH. I have missed plenty of throwing knives and someone was able to kill me before I wa a behind the shield again. Now I can’t even attempt long distance throwing knifes because of how SLOW the swap is between the throwing knife and riot shield. The literally only had to nerf the turtle shell.

I literally spent 75 bucks on this game to grind for hours to get the riot shield and throwing knife which takes a while so I can play S&D with my buddies from back in the day.

The one thing I really enjoyed they totally fucked up and ruined. I’ve never commented or complained about a game ever, but I spent 75 bucks and feel like they just snatched all my fun out from under me because some kids cry about the riot shield and can’t just use a Semtex. This fucking sucks and now I’ll probably stop playing the game. I have over 400 throwing knife kills and my friends loved when I would take over a game hittin everything. Last night I couldn’t even get a knife off because of how slow the speed was….these developers man…..WTF. Can we somehow go backwards on this?
