I think there are other exploits to the shield myself as well. Ive noticed that some players (same ones all the time), are able to stop bullets even when the shield is opened for them to fire. They do not even need to close the shield in combat. Ive even seen the shield give protection to a player from behind. Like if you aim for the back and head, it would be deflected like if you were facing the shield. This does not happen all the time, but it has enough times for me to notice it. Personally, I think the shield should either be reduced in its defense or allow the Ts to buy a terrorist version of the shield. As it stand now, besides any bugs in the shield and its uses, it it far to much of an advantage. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Douglas R Taber" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, July 10, 2003 4:22 PM Subject: [hlds_linux] [STEAM] Riot Shield
