As per title.
Now that the special ammo patch has landed we're finally seeing all the side effects that it brings. One of the things that I feel that has been overlooked are the over shields that people are rewarded with after successfully reviving a dead teammate. Both the revived and revived player are rewarded with this shield. Before the special ammo nerf we had enough means to shut down these revives but without special ammo this is no longer an easy feat to pull off. You will find yourself easily shooting through your full magazine on one single opponent because of this. By the time you've reloaded they are either already reviving other players to keep the revive train going.
The last thing this game should do is reward death, and that is exactly what an over shield does. And now with the lack of special ammo, they are granted a massive and unfair advantage. Not to mention that this basically reverts previous nerfs to revives as they were already to strong.
The solution to this problem is to completely remove over shields reviving and being revived. The advantage that you have another player return from death is enough incentive to prioritize revives.
