Shock paddles, fix them!!

[SargeJp]

Anyone think EA should fix the "buggy" shock paddles? I mean sometimes they work good but most of the time they recharge for like 3 seconds.

As far as i know, thats a feature. Medpacks and shockpads use the same "meter" so if you use medpacks you have to wait until you enough to use shockpads and vise versa.

So spamming medpacks isnt an option if you want to revive someone.

This is a known bug that is destined to be fixed in the next patch.

while the shared meter bar isn't on enough to do a shock if you keep clicking to use the shock pads your guy says "clear clear clear cle,clea,clear clear clear" heh

same if you run out of missles in an APC it will fire blanks until your meter is recharged.

E sold us the idea that the shock paddles were gonna be better. But in fact they are worse. If I knew that there were gonna link pad & bags together, then I would of told them to ***** **** **** ******* *** **!!

I didn't actually know that they shared a meter. You do learn something new every dau.

I really didn't see a problem with the paddles to begin with...

I think we all agree with you/

Re: Shock paddles, fix them!!

Yes, I think I should make a thread like this one but on EA forums so EA can see what we think about it.

They made the shock paddles non-spammable to prevent stat padding, and to help snipers make sure they drop a claymore in front of your squad before you can finish reviving. :P

not really much wrong with them...only thing a bit annoying was when you revived someone and then forgot to full let them recharge before going back to your gun......you would then run out into the open to revive someone else and when you got to their body you would get out your paddles and they would start recharging...argh....so when i read the fix for 1.2 so that the recharged when you put them away it sounded good....but its just as bad since they now share a recharge time with health packs and so the quicker players who could heal and revive players now have to wait. Doesn't help that the paddles dont always work first time on bodys unless you get the right angle etc.
