That's what I've been doing!
I'm standing still, pointing to the desired deploy spot and press and hold (around 2 seconds) LMB. There is an animation, the player leans forward as if he was planting something, barricade disappears from my hand and instead of appearing in the spot I pointed with the crosshair, it appears back in my hand.
The same happens with a medic box. Completely unusable.
It's very frustrating to just drop the cade in the fort in hard mode just to see it gets used by some crazy archer as a standing spot.
