We all know how we have +10% damage resistance with specific headgear, mostly helmets. However, not all helmets have this special trait. This includes ssh36 helmets, Stalhelms with the balaclavas, and etc, the M1 helmets with those ear flaps and etc. It makes no sense that a cap made from cloth can withstand more damage than a steel helmet.
Controversially, you can also make all cosmetics have 0% damage resistance since they are cosmetics, but I know a lot of people wouldn’t like that.
Helmets only protected against shrapnel and WW2 body armour was very cumbersome and didn’t protect against anything except knives and shrapnel. On the rare occasion a lead-core bullet could be stopped but only low velocity.
TL;DR: Armour was shit back then so stop making it affect small arms fire!!
Yeah I know that, but if they add damage resistance on some helmets, why not all? Just because I put a balaclava on my head doesn’t make my head 10% weaker.
I couldn’t care less, since headshot was always OHK as far as I can remember.
many ex-soviet and russophill claim that the body armour could stop 9mm parabellum based on soviet propaganda.
No one ever volunteered to test it though XD
