Could we please have an infantry deployable shield modules? This would be something like a riot shield that can take a lot of punishment. It can be made in such a way that its battery operated and the shield depletes over time and needs to be recharged. People should also be able to fire behind it. This would make a great tactical asset. |

When I think deployable shield I instantly think bubble shield, and this would be a great idea. There's even a skill that says something about remote shields. There's also a skill that is for remote repairers which are obviously the repair tools...so where are the remote shields?
It would work wonders for taking cover from dropships and tanks while using AV weapons, except that heavies can't use them which balances it out making it an even better support tool. Another balancing idea would be that it shows up on the map and every player's radar so that snipers will be obviously pointed out if they use them. |

It would make solo null cannon hacks a lot less nerve wracking. |

remote shield is basically a rep gun, but works for shields.
but yes a throw down shield is something i suggested and i support. throwing it around an area giving cover to give a little extra protection that can prevent a few sniper shots before breaking the shield. |

Shields would really help with cover on the very open maps.
It could be a device that projects out burning plasma, and is molded into shape by an electric field. Or they can work like regular shields work.
Shields can be equipment:
It could be an equipment that you can deploy 4 of during a battle.
You should get war points every time a teammate is shot at while behind the protection of your shield.
These shields should be destructible.
Shields as weapons:
Shields could be light weapons that can be held while advancing (or even running) for more mobile defense.
Team members advancing with you, and being protected behind your shield as it takes enemy fire should get you war points. This would help squad cohesion.
Shields should have to reload energy cells.
