The Riot shield.... this new weapon.. are we going to be able to carry a side arm with it? maybe a pistol or a sub machine gun.. They say that the riot shield will help you prevent from getting headshotted as often.. although i often times dont get headshotted.. but will it do more? will it help you move towards turrets? they did not give much on info on this riot shield but what i'm trying to say is that i feel like it will change the game drastically with many more ways to counter your opponent..


after re reading the notes.. they call it a "riot style shield" idk what the hell to expect anymore!!

It's NOT going to be like MW2's Riot Shield. It's going to essentially be a "Shield" attachment for your WEAPON. Think if you will, a Security MG Nest how it has that bullet-proof guard around it?

Basically the same thing, just a Shield at the end/middle of your gun (wherever it may be placed).

Do you think that just the Heavies will be able to carry them, if they are not attached to the weapon. I am saying if they are held. It would seem funny for us skinny guys to be running around with a big shield. Haha

What I THINK is that, maybe the Bayonet/Weapon Shield will only be available for Medium/Heavies... I just can't imagine a Bayonet/Weapon Shield on SMGs and Pistols... can you? Lol.

very nice, sounds like it will be a great attachment for a sniper

I tried finding a picture of the picture in my mind, but I can't find anything so I just found a pic of the Security's MG Nest. But, I imagine it'll be like that^

That would make the Maximus MG SOOO BEAST! (And Light Rifle's)

LOL, maximus is crazy as is especially with the muzzle break.. that is my weapon of choice on my heavy..
