Although I think it would be cool to see the Jackal shields in MP, if not just for the novelty of it, I think theyre extremely overrated. In single-player campaign its a -blam!- trying to take out a Jackal with a shield because theres only one of you and the Jackal will always face the shield in your direction. However, in MP, itd be really easy to be taken out with a shield because you're up against more than just one person. Someone slips behind you and you're dead.
Granted it would be good in one-on-one encounters, but in giant frag fests you're worse off with a shield. Itd be better to just hold two guns.
Besides, who needs Jackal shields anyway? Overshields are there for a reason. Just one mans opinion.
Edit: Cripes.
