Fortnite players frustrated over \u201cbroken as hell\u201d weapon in Chapter 5 Season 4 Epic GamesFortnite\u2019s new season has just launched, but players are already frustrated playing against this particular weapon added to the game. It\u2019s not Fortnite without a rotating loot pool every season, introducing new weapons and items to the game while also vaulting some of the previous ones. In keeping with this season\u2019s theme, players can now get their hands on various Marvel weapons. One of the Marvel weapons that this new season brought to the game is Captain America\u2019s Shield. Well, not even 24 hours after the season launched, players in a Reddit thread are already claiming that this needs to be nerfed immediately. Titled \u201cShield Charge? Say less,\u201d one user went as far as uploading a side-by-side image of the Ballistic Shield released in Chapter 5, Season 1 and Captain America\u2019s Shield with a text saying, \u201cDied 2024, born 2024. Welcome back, Ballistic Shield.\u201d Following this, players in the comments think Captain America\u2019s Shield is frustrating to play against, mainly because of the amount of damage it deals and how it can be used to block incoming damage. One user wrote, \u201cI\u2019m five games into the chapter, and I\u2019ve lost four of them to this thing. One guy was cowering behind it. I could see his head but couldn\u2019t get hits on it. What the hell am I supposed to do?\u201d Meanwhile, according to another player, \u201cIf anything needs to be nerfed this season, it\u2019s the shield.\u201d They added, \u201cEverything else isn\u2019t too bad, but with the shield, you can just spam it and kill your opponent in seconds.\u201d \u201cDo they playtest to make sure these things aren\u2019t entirely busted on release? Like\u2026 if you both have the shield a 1v1 is just ***,\u201d mentioned a different user. \u201cPeople complain fast but the truth is the captain shield is f***ing broken as hell, tanks almost any damage and the distance and damage is so stupid,\u201d one chimed in. One user in the comments suggested that Epic nerfs its range and auto-aim. Fortnite is known to roll out hotfixes and balance changes from time to time, and only time will tell if Captain America\u2019s Shield will get tweaked.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
