Shielding CS:S

[Freak_unleashed]

Keep the shield. Higher the price and make the window breakable or something.



Also add the server remove option.

If a nade blows up near you, the shield should be blasted a few meters away!



The molotov idea isnt bad, but it should slowly inflict damage and not burn up a whole room full of ct's.

I'll voice my opinion,



Even though many people here vote to remove the shield, it shouldn't be. Sometimes it's good for people to have something forced onto them, they'll grow to like it. It's like learning to eat some kind of vegetable you're not really a fan of.

CS:S will undoubtably fix a lot of the shield exploits, and like may said before: It *is* usefull against other overpowered weapons (like AWP).

It diversifies the game, the gamers always whine in the beginning but in the end they'll praise you :)



(if CS:S is made right that is :p)

No! Keep it! Its already a part of the game. Why not just give terrorists something to counteract it?

[aespopd]

Please get rid of the shield for the love of cs :P

[Dukeh]

Please get rid of the Shield

[ruthlessvato]

i say keep the shield but give it more vunerablities and have it ACTUALLY block bullets for teammates behind u. perhaps when the shieild is blocking take away the crosshair. and maybe make the shield smaller covering only the chest and head. a shield bash move would be nice...

[tophero]

remove it, all it does is slow the game down especially if you happen to be playing on some of the specialized custom maps

nothing good ever came out of that shield... most of the people using it are morons who like to sit in a corner in the middle of nowhere just camping out the rounds, and i definitely hate the stand offs.. as another guy said, it really takes away the fast pace of the game that i love. if you really wanna keep it, then at least make it possible to shoot through the window...



and by the way, "OPIE" is an idiot... taking out a sniper without using an awp yourself ain't so hard... throw a smoke, a flash, dodge, take another route and shoot them in the back... and for guys like OPIE who needs his zoom to be able to hit someone long range, get glasses and stop whining...

[Lento]

My friends and I laugh at the shield and says it never should have been there to start with. What it does/did was only to add more hitbox bugs and exploits. So, let's forget about the shield and drop it in CS:S? =p



To sum it all up: Give it the big ol' boot...

[vasya_pupkin]

dont need it

Basicly every1 who uses it- he glitches the shield.

Neva used it, its like the door from my refrigirator.

DONT NEED IT, KICK BAN SHIELD.

If valve collects info even where was bomb planted they can easily check how many shields r in use- not 2 many... So if ppl dont use- y it should b still in the game

[Katman]

Remove the shield, never has worked properly in my opinion and CS was fine before it was implemented.

[SunOne]

Lot of players just whine about the shield, and I think it really adds something new to the game. Once used "correctly" the shield actually is fun for CT's to use.



I think if the shield is going to stay, the Terrorists should have something to counter-act on it. It's only fair to add an item/weapon that can make the shielding players more vulnerable.



But if Valve doesn't plan on adding something like that to it. Just remove the shield and make it history.

[apoc2k3]

SCRAP IT

[Branagan]

i want it in but u might as well get rid cos no-one uses it

[Whisper.]

The problem with the shield is this:



It has so many exploits and bugs, and hit box bugs in particular, that thus far, it has been impossible to evaluate its impact on the game with any real objectivity, and it is not possible to do this until the shield works the way it was designed to.
