I'm not sure that a stronger gun can really solve the "getting kicked around" problem here. IM inworld and I'll send you a decent shield.

What I don't like is a certain group in game had a robot that was basically an aimbot, lamer fps cheater style. I really dislike that no matter what you do the thing just pushes you all over and pushes through shields and eventually you get lagged out, stuck under sheet terrian and need to restart just to be targeted again. I love gun battles and I have them often, but a primbot with an aimbot that cant even be attacked back is just... well kiddie. There's no fun to that, and I have better shoot-outs with people using those heavy near overkill weapons.

Is there any protection in a battle from something like that? I mean it's cool and all but you can't even get into a good true ranged combat fight (or melee) when someone stands there with some bot that never misses anyone from long (person as small as my letters here) range and just rapidly fires on you. Is there some shield that can really stop this? Perhaps a really really good weapon against it? I hate to nuke someones sim but after trying to put up a fight against a rper who rps an "honorable" character using an aimbot to make up for skill, there needs to be some way to punish them back. Some weapon, some stealth or shield or all Three.

If anyone knows of anything... I have tried a lot of shields that aren't too great. I have a lot of sniper weapons but none with a true zoom to even get a good distance shot.

You should file an abuse report on anyone who forces you to relog. It's a TOS violation (or was it CS?).

I do that sometimes. But, I actually add a health meter to those things. I had one that would chase people around and would shoot little fireballs, but you could kill it easily. Like 5 shots or so and it would blow up. It was fun. I did it for vehicles sometimes too. So many shots would make the vehicle explode killing anybody sitting in it or close to it. That got ruined after one patch, though. If you shot something you were sitting on you'd die instantly.

I used to be a 7 stone weakling and everyone would kick sand in my face until I got my Duranium Shield. Now people are afraid to be in the same sim as me.

is that in-game or... I've got guns, and where one won't go through a shield others will easily if always. I have tested a lot of shields with people but I honestly don't know what would work on the robot this person built. It shoots so fast and so far you can't even keep your bearings to make a shot at the person controlling it. It's almost like a reverse nuke in a way. It just bouncing you back and giving you damage on top of shooting through anything making it impossible really to escape other then tele out but I wouldn't be that cowardly like the person using the robot. I rather fight back just not sure how.

Since they like to play with weapons, I was thinking of getting that big nuke and setting a missle to home in on them, but I've been hit by that weapon mysef, and I can come back after... whereas this robot they use, can pummel me for as long as I stay in the sim. I need something that can protect me and let me stay offensive so I can fight back without hesitation.

I wish it did have health like your creation did Nick. I would see that as fair then and make it slightly fun like the auto-turrets in a certain UT2004 mod.

Breaking the shield is easy.
Getting past people sitting, or down-ward push scripts is not.

but seriously... AR them.

I want to buy this http://www.slexchange.com/modules.php?name=Marketplace&file=item&ItemID=18156

I am wondering about the non push mode, if i were to use it on myself for looks it would create a big mushroom cloud but no one would get pushed if it's toggled right? SO I can fire rockets that do nothing more than particle effects... unless I wanted to toggle push, right?
