I agree, the layout is too small for shakers

Lame, no other way about it... shaker levels have to be large, or they just put Subway Dancer to shame.

not only no
but hell no
Now, on another subject: Why not just create a mod called "Shakers"
And then you can add shakers to any level, just by playing the shakers mod

I don't think shakers should be in BI3, just because the level is too small for that. No room to maneuver to miss the shakers.
However, if you really want to make BI3 a shaker level, I'd suggest making it exactly the same, but giant sized. Make every room, hallway, etc, 3x as big. That way people can have their beloved cliche level and shaker goodness simultaneously.

Someone should invent the Universe Shaker and put it in BI3. When you shoot one everyone on that side of the map dies.

I can see the Counter Strike-ish replies on top now..

"HAX"

"OMG BS!!"

Nope its too small. Try putting shakers into a level like Bill The Cat or Halcyon.

Even those are too small, though I must admit shakers in halcyon would liven things up a little. Try polaris, apparition, or Echo III.

huh. i would still like to see it done though. i don't think it would be as bad as some make it out to be. the halls are about the right length that if you did plant a shaker you either die or run.
i'm talking like gen maybe one or max of two shakers on a respawn of 90 seconds or so. must be just me but i think it'd be a blast

are you serious? bi3 is plenty big enough to dodge a shaker. d3 shakers are so weak anyway in comparison to the d2 ones, and the most popular shakers level of all time (UES) was about the same size as bi3.
i think shakers in anything d3 is lame though. i voted no.
