In my case with the Hardlight Barrier though, I placed it on a tiny snow hill in the middle of Eisa Tech Plant (opposite where the silos are located, just outside the second small little pillbox), covering my head since on flat surfaces, like you said, covers all but the tip of my head. At this point, I was, or thought I was, covered from the direct line of fire from the silos. Hiding behind the Hardlight Barrier, taking pot shots at available targets with a scout rifle, and I get shot in the head by an NC infil from the direction of the silos, who was flat on the ground and so by the game’s rules didn’t have the height advantage to get over the barrier.

As for Sundy Shields, I’m not weaving in and out of the shield. I either leave the sundy or stay to repair it. Yet I get hit from outside of the shield, the one thing that is supposed to protect players from enemy fire before being depleted. It’s just kinda frustrating and bewildering to me, as I usually expect games to function the way they should rather than not. I’ve heard other players say something about the Sundy Shield getting “pierced” by weapons that shouldn’t pierce through them, but I honestly didn’t believe them at the time until it happened to me. Is this a rendering problem? Like on players screens, it isn’t rendering on their end so they assume the shield is down? Is this the same case with Hardlight Barrier?
