Hmmm...

In Response To: Plasma Pistol - should (not) disable jetpack? (jlm699) ... maybe the clip you're referring to is from an older build. In the April 2nd weekly update, Urk says this about the jetpack: Of course, while you’re aloft, you’re completely without cover and your ability to get shifty is severely hampered. If someone has you in their sights, your only real recourse is to fall away and hope you find cover before they clip your wings (though you can return fire from your airy perch). You’re also susceptible to EMP bursts from Plasma Pistol charges and the Grenade Launcher. While you’re controlling the skies, make sure you keep your head on a swivel. You might feel like Superman, but you won’t be stopping any speeding bullets, Clark. (emphasis mine) I would tend to agree that an EMP should bring a jetpacker back down to earth.
