foooken riot shields

[goigle!]

Other than the mislabeling of the name, the intent of the riot shield in the game is to stop bullets.  Beyond that, there is nearly no function to the swep as you can stop a melee attacker by pulling out a tazer and applying fear rp.  They have been extremely buggy over the years, ranging from being bulletproof but grabable by minges, to not reducing damage at all.

Your video is informative of the difference and you should make a suggestion to inform him that he should change the label from Riot to Ballistic, though it's a pretty minor, very detail oriented change, kinda like how they changed the default job from Unemployed to Citizen, which is funny because neither is a job anyway.

That's not necessarily true. If there are multiple attackers a taser might not be feasible.

Anyway, the video was actually what mike linked and I don't care what it is at all in game, I just found it funny that people ignore the differences

also, I feel like people are taking this thread way more seriously than I intended it
