The Barricade is an exclusive gadget for the Heavy Build which can be deployed. Its placement obstructs incoming projectiles, giving contestants the opportunity to seek refuge and either recover health or retaliate with a counterattack.
Uses & Interactions
While the shield is effective in protecting players from incoming projectiles, contestants with a Light Build or Medium Build will find it difficult to shoot over the barricade. Consequently, they will have to leave their cover to retaliate. Placing the shield in a restricted area can hinder speedy evacuation during critical situations such as when a grenade is thrown at the player. The shield may begin to break apart when it is shot at, resulting in openings that players can exploit to shoot through.
Each of the 5 panels have separate health, surviving between 30 and 40 M60 shots [690 - 920 Health], It is worth noting that the same panel can have varying amount of health, when you spawn 2 different barricades [sometimes surviving 32 shots and sometimes 40 for example]
It is apparent that explosives deal additional damage to the barricade, as the RPG which does 180 damage, will instantly blow up the entire barricade [all 5 panels] on a direct hit.
Up to four Barricades can exist at the same time.
Instructions
Placeable gadgets can be placed on a surface using a handheld tablet device.
The gadget's placement is shown as a hologram, which the contestant can move freely over the surfaces in front of them and can be rotated.
When ready, the tablet can be activated if the placement is valid (colored blue), causing the gadget to be deployed at that location.
Once the gadget is placed, the contestant can interact with it to pick it back up and refresh its charge.
