(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); So what do you guys think about the riot shield in MW3? I personally think they could be done better, and since the game is still buggy, you miss a lot of bashing with it and end up getting knifed, you also can get shot in through your shoes while ducking.

The new element of adding cracks to the shield also puts people who use riot shields at a disadvantage.

I was kinda hoping that they would let you shoot from the side of a riot shield, but I think it would be op in someway...

But I think when the knives are fixed (if it does get fixed) riot shield would be more powerful, but as of right now they are just used as a support, and barely get a positive KD or a 2KD depending on your team.

I find this combination best imo:

Secondary: Any duals
Tactical: C4
Perk 1: Sleight of hand pro
Perk 2: Hard line pro
Perk 3: Steady aim
Support package.

Any other good ideas?

All I ever use em for. Friends and I use it mostly to get a full team together and just charge the enemy or entrap our flag by creating a circle or a barrier around it while having one of us sitting in a corner waiting to shoot whoever comes out. :P

Yeah I use riot shields in Search for trolling, making the other team rage, but when I'm bored I use it in domination, and I use recon drone with hardline pro for about 20-40 assists.

Definately go with stun grenades and quickdraw PRO(throw equipment faster). Even though right now they WILL stun you if you block it with your shield(WHICH NEEDS TO BE FIXED!!!)

I haven't used riot shields yet in MW3, but I have come across a few people who have. In my experience, 9/10 times I can take them out while shooting straight at the shield, even without them having taken prior damage, as well as also getting easy knife kills against shield users. To me, this makes it seem underpowered. It should take more than a few bursts direct to the shield, or 1 knife shot to kill a shield user.
