    Balistic Shield

    I would love to see a Balistic shield into this game, duo to alot of tactical gameplay has in rush in and rush out and such. i'm thinking about a combo such has. Drone guy, sniper, LMG guy, and a balistic shield. i love to use balistic shield. and i'm kinda used to it into diffrent games, has "Rainbow six and division. i kinda see alot of potensial into it has well.. and maybe a beder difficulty has well would be a full use in the game.

    Honestly don't think it makes much sense to have in this game. For the enemies yeah I can see that working, but the military rarely has use for ballistic shields, they use hard cover and concealment, carrying around something as heavy as that in an open world game just doesn't really work.

    Could definitely see Unidad using them though, would be nice to see them sync up and advance behind a shield user.

    i do kinda get ur point, but still. they have realased previous versions of "Balastic Shields" so i don't see the reasson why they should not attach shields to this game has well. they allready made shields to diffrent shooter games, so why should this stand out?
    i do kinda feel this could be the perfect game of having shields duo to the close combat effectivess and sutch.

    well, a quick google search told me that a riot shield weights around 8kg
    meanwhile ingame we can carry two weapons, for example the HTI weights around 9kg, MG121 seems to be around 11kg...so weight shouldnt be an issue at all if it counts as a weapon.

    for example: riotshield combined with mp5 would weight around 11kg too, you could even carry another gun then.
    so from weight alone it shouldnt be an issue

    Oh boy here we go! I for one, being a Veteran, will walk away from this game if they put riot shields in it! This is not a shooter! This game was suppose to be about STEALTH!!!

    If you like riot shields, I am sure COD, BF, Overwatch, or maybe even The Division, just might be more to your taste.
