I would really like to see a support role that ran around with a riot shiled. Give cover for guys behind him, and it would really make the game more tactical. I would like to see these shileds with a eve twist. Since the some races focus on shiled tanking they could manufacture these said shileds. Bashing people or holding a gun behind the shiled such as a pistol and shooting would be fun. Sorry if this was already posted else where.. tried looking to see and didnt come across any posts that were alike. Looking forward to release! |

We'd need the ability to dual wield first. But I think shields would make pretty interesting side arms. Some Taskmaster like shields, but bigger, would be cool. |

One word for you - "heavy". The heavy dropsuit is, in essence, a walking riot shield. With proper team support, they take the damage while the team dishes out the majority in return. |

The idea sounds interesting, but I'm not sure the game mechanics could handle it at the moment. Certainly, right now, my logi-suit is extremely squishy, and I'd like to have some extra health for it. I wouldn't mind carrying around a shield, if I could still have my repair tool or nanite injector in my free hand. |

Not really, he will still drop in 1-2 seconds under constant fire. |

This actually sounds really awesome with or without your sidearm. Just remember the difference between a riot shield and a bulletproof shield. Riot shields are pieces of plastic used to protect riot response from rocks and bricks. |
