I had an idea for an item that could be dropped by the commander once that part of the game is added. A Projector Shield.
Basically anyone who plays EVE has seen the shield that surrounds a POS and also protects whats inside it. What if we could have those be deployable on the planet?
Create a dome that surrounds an area.
Wana know what yall think and would love for a DEV to comment on this. |

not a bad idea at all id think granted you cant make these permanent sheilds where you have to destroy the generator in the center to remove it, they would have to work just like very large well normal shields on the dropsuit and have a certain hp to them. They would have to be portable in this case with a finite power supply so it only makes sense to have a finite amount of hp.
otherwise i was thinking the same thing, solid idea. |

+1 i think this is a great idea would be good for both defence and attack combine that and a dropup link youve got a fairly decent foward base,
It would be a good idea to have it in different sizes like on designed for outposts which would be large and rather strong and small man portable one which could act as a chest high baricade to shoot over and take cover behind |

BF2142 had a similar kind of equipment a player could unlock which was basically a deployable 2D shield. Mobile cover that only protected you from one direction. Of course they didn't get used much because the blue glow made you stand out and before you knew it you were taking way more fire than you would have otherwise. |

as much as i <3 forge gunning objectives to death, it sorta made me think something like this might be useful.
though i dunno, should the burden of holding the good perches be on the defenders? how powerful should these shields be? should they stop EVERYTHING? just bullets? just forge guns and swarm launchers? all bullets and vehicles but not dropsuits?
i feel like there is room for something like this, but i'd want more specifics before i personally voted yes or no. |

If you look through the engineering skill tree in the marketplace you'll see there is a skill for just such a shield. |
