yes shields it would be cool also like the idea of 2 sheilds like for protecting the flag carrier when both teams have the flag at the same time

YOU know what would be REALY cool if you had were facing bots and there were about 10 of em on a team they go into a turtle formation (from the romans a box formation with outer shidls facing out and innershidls up to form a roof) and go to capture the flag they would be like a moving wall, untill, that is they meet the rocket launcher, but dont get your hopes up i highly doubt that the bots will be able to do that. but it sounds cool

I think it'd be useful, and if done properly it would be balanced with the other weapons. It'd also (IMO) make grenades more useful... Plus, making those pesky snipers having an even harder shot...

I think this wud be a particually cool idea in itself an extra shield wud come in right handy but the implications of dual wielding blow it wide open!!!!!!

i agree with the mod, it took everyone about 2 minutes to figure out the shields are weak to plasma weapons so unless you face a projectile wielding enemy they would be good for one shot from a plasma pistol, then they would be bust and youd be in the same situation. Now picking up a fuel rod gun, now THAT could be useful! :)

There are two problems with this. First of all, the MC is like 4 feet taller than the jackals, so either your big-ass legs would be way out below the shield, or you sniper-target head. Second, plasma weapons could take it out really fast. There would be almost no point in having a plasma shield if your enemy is carrying a plasma pistol, or just grenades.
