Helmet
« on: August 31, 2010, 07:18:50 am »
As we all know helmet does not effect the game at all or maybe just for the looking.
I suggest that those who wear helmets will get an extra protection just like the bulletproof vest...some between 5% - 10% to it.
What do you think?

Hmm there's vest, as you mentioned helmet is just for the looking. If it will decrease damage by 10% it will be used by everyone which will look bad. I'd suggest you adding a poll, F11

Im chill like that

It is just will give you extra protection,and I don't think that everyone will use it...I wouldn't.
Anyway it will not only not harm the balance of the weapons damage it will get more balanced...think about it sniper will kill in 1 shot as well as the m79,Ruger with 2 as it now.but spray weapons and spas will have to effort a bit more.

Why wouldn't you use something that gives you an instant and allowed advantage without any disadvantages?

Because I love long hair WITHOUT helmet on it :)
And i always think about things that may improve little bit the game play not just something that will help me to kill easier and not be killed at all.

Only if not wearing a helmet decreased wind resistance.

Wrong, this wouldn't make it better, just worse.
If the helmet gives you extra protection, then the field cap should give you less recoil/bink and wearing nothing should give you a longer field of view.
So in other words, let's completely f**k Soldat in the ass.

and the dog tag should get stuck in polygons causing your soldier to choke ;d

OK, this is more epic than all my ideas put together, let's implement it!

In other words: if you want to have a nice pretty bonus like different hair styles - you have to play with less protection. You'd have to choose either protection or customization, but you cant have both.
Basically it just adds another limit to an already limited character customization in Soldat.

Is that fair? No.
Does it improve balance? No.
So is there any point in it? No. :/

So THAT'S what all the polybugs are! They're not bugs, they're a feature!

I think that that's not a good idea, because it just gives one more choise to player fixing, and there are already enough of them.
Sorry if I'm insolent.
