Day 1 Exploit: Edition 1 (Theory)
Day 1 Exploit: Edition 1 (Theory)
On day one, should the riot shield make it's way back into the game (which is complete speculation at this point), the riot shield is the first thing that exploiters will run to.
Glitches may be found etc, by those who look for them, but for normal players the Riot Shield will be the cool new thing to do all over again.
Riot shield "Boosting" as it is known from Modern Warfare 2, is when a player grabs a shield and then a member of the enemy team (often a friend, or a stranger who agreed to boost) shoots the shield which gains the shield user points for deflecting the bullets. It could be used in combination with enemy killstreaks such as the sentry gun or harrier (if angled right) for INCREDIBLE amounts of points with no work at all, and no damage to their K/D ratio
Now obviously, this wasn't THAT big of a deal in Modern Warfare 2 as the only people who did it were those who were trying to prestige very quickly.
The problem is: In Modern Warfare 3, there are "Pointstreaks", yes, by now you should see what I'm getting at.
A player could theoretically sit without ever moving and get to their streak with 0 effort, and in fact, 0 kills at all, while also capturing 0 objectives.
Players will get their points for deflecting bullets, reach their "pointstreak" and from what I hear, you can reset it after you reach the last one. They won't even have to die to start over their boosting again. They can get infinite points (within reason, obviously, metaphor) without ever having to actually do anything.
However: Some people think based on the survival trailer you will be able to shoot through it eventually if they sustain enough fire. (Personally, I don't see this happening in multiplayer if the shield did make a comeback, but I'll humor you.) The problem is, even if that did happen, they will never just make your weapon break. At most it has a set amount of "health" and after sustaining fire it will start to weaken. I assume that, just like a player, 5 seconds of not taking damage, and the shield will return to full health. Waiting 5 seconds in between large amounts of points for doing nothing at all and getting all your pointstreaks? Count me in.
