omg... M-CON against a wall.... put your back into the corner where the mcon meets the wall.... shield out at 45degrees..... invulnerable arming/disarming? ;)

If you can arm the mcom without any hands free this would be fail! You should be able to cover someone else though, and if you are the attacker, it's unlikely the opposition will spam grenades at their own mcom.

from what i remember you just have to be next to it and holding E.... you don't need to face it and you can be firing your guns away :p so shield should work ;)

well... I dunno.... seems everyone spams the mcon, regardless of team xD

until somebody uses an M320 / XM25 / V40 / etc.. and lobs one behind your shield.

It's not going to activate god mode.

well... we don't know yet..... ;) it may well do! :p

all depends what it does to the various types of damage, like will it only stop bullets, negate some or all explosive damage? weak spots?

I just envision being crouched in a corner with the perfect angles so you can;t be killed... until like you said... someone gets a 3 pointer with a nade and it lands on your head xD

like the blast mechanics in this game.... I just don;t know.... sometimes seems to get killed by explosions on the other side of walls... other times (like last night) and RPG hit the wall edge of the floor (i was upstairs in one of the big building on E flag rogue transmission...white ones, concrete) I was standing on... and I was right up against the edge... and I took no damage :p

Shields are going to be a very good thing for gameplay (you can't use a gun with them), especially on lockers and metro.

Sensible addition unlike staff, mbt law, gunship, activ.........

They will probably be just like the heavy mounted 50 cal guns shields.



Just noticed I am now 2nd in UK for tanks YAY! Not far of 2nd place for AA as well.....

Not bad considering patsy and rotten only play in MBT and LAV tanks :p


Fallen behind big time for attack boats though since attack jet whoring on paracel :(

I don't see too much of an issue.

As long as they are not OP, the use is vulnerable to well placed grenades and RPGs, then I would hope they provide an new and interesting dynamic to some of the maps.

Although I do wonder if the maps in the expansion will be like Locker / Metro so as to best take advantage of shields in close quarters. So in the end it turns into an explosive lobbing match between the two teams.

Well according the the leaked maps, there's a lot of wide open ocean with islands, so I'm not quite sure of the relevance of the shield to naval strike.

I hope they fix the jetski, it handles so badly in choppy water.

The shields will be added in the Dragons Teeth expansion, not Naval Strike. Dragons Teeth, from the limited information available, will take place in war torn cities locked down by the PLA.
 
I want the XBOW back! So much fun with that in BF3.

I'm all for shields. Could have some fun with them if they do it right.
 
Tank drivers, watch out, you're not safe anymore!!!!


lol

Btw, what was that bipod, laser sight glitch for the helis or tanks someone mentioned on ts yesterday?
 
Used to be you could bipod on a little bird and get amazing accuracy, not sure if that is still the case. thought they fixed it in a patch but could be wrong!

And the defib kill only works on the gunner, not the driver I believe. Not had it done to me yet. My HMG keeps them at bay!
