This really pissed me off. I was playing on Silent Cartographer, and I was at the location of the three overshields that are all next to eachother. So I go to pick one up, and instead of hearing my shield charge up like usual, I hear what sounds like a couple of shields charging up all at once. I turned around to look at the other two overshields but they were gone. So I said Blamming glitch! This has never happened to me before. Has it happened to you?

oh ya, i've felt the pain of taking all three of those overshields before...i think it's because you get them when your sheilds are hurt, so your origional shield doesn't get completely charged up before you grab the next two.

And yeah, Opey could probably win that game without using his BR. Best SMG user in Halo.

Ok I see. My shields wer'e down because I had just gotten done slaying that gaggle of grunts that gaurd the enterence to the Halos' security room. I took them all out with the AR, but in return they took down my shield, then before my shields could recharge I picked up an overshield, or should I say overshields.LOL. It still sucked horribly.

With an infinitely recharging shield, I wouldn't really worry about grabbing a few overshields at once.

You can still get all three(or two in POA) if you run over multiple sheilds when the first one isn't done charging all the way.

When I did Legendary I went back and got every overshield after the first ran out. It didn't matter how far away it was :P
