Sort of a cross between the bubble shields you use in EVE, and a barricade (maybe).
They are an installation, not an equipment item. When you order one down, it'll drop it, and create a bubble area around it, allowing for some protection to who ever owns that shield. It can also act like a barricade to keep enemy out of an area for a certain amount of time.
in order to hack/ destroy the installation, you must destroy the shields. Unlike the shields for everything else in this game, once you pop the shields, it goes into a cool down mode that allows the attackers a chance to get in, and hack the installation. The cool down mode also removes the god like Op factor this installation would have if it recharged like everything else.
OR this could be turned into a passive turret that could be mounted on heavy vehicles, or installation. it would give infantry, and lighter vehicles protection as they cross hazardous locations.
It replaces the main turret on a heavy vehicle/ large installation. It creates a bubble shield that has around 8000 to 10k hit points. once it's hit points are depleted, it must go through a slow cool down phase in order to re-establish its shield, which leaves it open for attack. Enemies and allies both deal damage to it when they fire at it. Enemies and allies cannot enter the dome, they must be with the vicinity of the dome once it has been established to be able to be protected by it. It takes a massive amount of CPU, and GP to use. The shield this turret generates will replace the vehicles base shields.
Caldari tanks are the preferred vehicles for the turret.

I don't like the bubble it's to much like warhawk/starhawk. But calling down a shield fence wouldn't be bad. |

I like the idea...like POS shields. Deffinatly like the idea of having a mobile version on a tank as well (at the expense of weaponry)...could offer a whole new range of playstyles in game.
Actually, CCP, make a 'ship equipable' version for EVE as well (of course, fueled by stront on there possibly as well). Could make so many interesting possibilities.
'Cool down' mode reminds me of 'reinforced mode' from. Not so sure on the hit points though...think they may possibly need a lot of tweaking/multiple varients to get right, so they're not too powerful for infantry but not too weak for vehicles.
How about make it so scouts, or at least a certain module that must be fitted, can gain access without it needing to enter cooldown first, for possible an early/sneak hacking? |

I like the shield fence idea. Or even a deployable equipment shield screen. The only problem I have with your bubble shield really though is that you want it to behave differently than other shields in game. I am not familiar with the reference to the eve bubble shield as I have not played eve in a very long time. But it sounds like you want the technology of the shield to differ from the eve universes shield technology. |

i was thinking of mini bubble that has the same range as the nanohaive that one would use as a bit of oh smeg im being shot at while your capping the point, so basically it takes a few rounds (maybe a clip or something) so its just enough you cant be jumped |
