Add weapon that removes/adds blocks, like OpenSpades #1663

I don't think this would be a good weapon for RE specifically due to how much it would disrupt map flow, choke points and so on, as maybe you could literally put a block on top of a affinity, be it a bomber ball or flag, making it so you aren't able to pick it up.
If it was a placeable shield, however, that could work better, but a block? NaaaahI have to agree with SniperGoth's assesment. It would ruin the map flow and could easily make for tons of exploits where ppl could say, make the flag impossible to get. I think a game needs to be designed from the ground up for this sort of thing.
On the other hand, I do really like the portable shield idea. Maybe it fills an area in a flat vertical plane out to a large radius, and drops like other special weapons. It takes roughly a second to place so you cant just insta shield, and it has a set very high health pool, and or dissapears over ~30 seconds. These are just my preliminiary ideas though.
What if blocks can only be places in "build-able areas", which are defined by map designers?

It would be cool to have a weapon that allows blocks to be placed, like in OpenSpades, a voxel-based open source shooters. Adds dynamism to the battleground, which is a lot of fun:
