Remove body armor or make it cosmetic

If it’s in the general customisation options people will give it to all their soldiers making it appear very common, I wouldn’t mind some of those armour plates being added but only for event of premium squads, otherwise body armour will become too common and Enlisted will look like some alt history game not a ww2 game.

Apparently, we are playing different versions of Enlisted. Because when I play for the USSR, I rarely see cuirasses. Usually, there is only one person in my team wearing body armor besides me, and very rarely two people. And even then, it’s not always the case; often I’m the only person in body armor in the whole team. And I highly doubt that the situation is much different for other factions.

No thanks.

WW2 was not a war where body armor was widely used.

Just because you don’t see it doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen. Also, most newer players don’t know the benefits of armour or don’t have the appearance orders to buy it, but once they can afford to buy armour, most players will give themselves any advantages they can get leading to soviet turtles all over the battlefield.

It is my duty to leave these topics in any place where there is a mention of body armor.

MY GOD!

I’ve read references to the Germans using captured breastplates for so long, but I’ve never seen a single photo. (Although this is not a photo in combat, but still)

We can give the Germans the ability to loot Soviet breastplates as part of my thread about solving body armor problems.

Like for the photo, but I still don’t agree with the idea of ​​giving all factions cuirasses. If that happens, I’ll need a special filter in the settings that turns off the display of this fucking circus. It would be better then to simply remove all the cuirases.

nowhere near best solution.

  1. you need separate currency for body armor giving veterans great advantage over newbies
  2. it is hidden behind customization and only small part of playerbase even knows that body armor gives damage reduction.
  3. it disturbs current gun balance. game should be balanced for 10 or 13.5 hp(wouldnt mind devs removing vitality).

so best solution is removing it.

I disagree. Giving bodyarmour for everyone would ruin the entire point of customization. Why spend your precious orders to get a cool looking jacket when you can buy another pseudo kevlar vest. It would also look really stupid with everyone looking like medieval knights. Just remove the bonus or make body armour take backpack slot with movement penalty

Boy oh boy how splendid

Now we only need to rebalance every single weapon to accommodate for that and we are golden

Just make it cosmetic and all the issues disappear - it’s that easy

Yes, cuirasses give an advantage. However, I wouldn’t say it’s a big one; cuirasses are unlikely to decide the outcome of a battle. And the Council’s body armor often doesn’t save them from me in a personal firefight. But isn’t the problem that only one faction has access to this advantage? So why not make it so that players from all factions have access to this advantage, wouldn’t that at least partially solve the problem?

Oh, I think the answer to that is right there in this post.

But is the easy way always the best? Of course, I understand that the developers of our game probably have a heart attack at the mere mention of the word “work,” but still, they get paid for something. Let them work on the game as they should.

That doesn’t mean we need medieval armor in every WW2 battle, at all.
