Soviet Body Armor

Remove the 10% damage reduction for body armor. Most of the time it does absolutely nothing and creates “soviet bias” accusations.

No

Just add body armor for other nations

Why have a feature in-game most casual players do not know about as it is not exactly advertised anywhere? Sure give this cosmetic the description that it gives such an advantage and see how it goes (5 min later, every soldier has a body armor cosmetic, cg killing any diversion of uniforms).

Secondly it is just 10%, not like it makes any difference right? So removing that would not cause any problems for the individuals using (abusing) it.

As Ive said in the past all armor effects from cosmetics should be removed from the game, on both helmets and body armor.

10% itself also has almost no difference, but the vitality perk is the one to fault for needing one extra shot to kill somebody (a tragedy for some people). The vitality perk should be nerfed, it makes all of the other vitality perks seem useless in comparison.

It needs to be removed, is the only logical move, but you will get a lot of illogical reply.

Power creep spent all their cosmetic point to get them so every time a thread like this come up they try to suppressed it.
So sad :face_with_hand_over_mouth:

Here we go again parrot favorite kind of discussion tbh

Don’t forget to upgrade the damage of PPS-43 to 6.8

Is it struggling that hard against MP40 in clear comparison to get such buff? It seems to be doing fine as is tbh. Though yeah, same ammunition as PPS-42 yet 0.2 less dmg (Full upgrade), does not make sense it terms of realism, but this is a game.

I dont want this to turn into some cod vanguard where everyone is running body armor. Cosmetics should not give any gameplay advantages other than looking cool.

Cosmetics are cosmetics, not items. They shouldn’t have any gameplay mechanics.

We all want a balance. PPS has 6,7 mp40 has 7,0. Many said that soviets have body armor, okay
Now we want to delete it, therefore you need to increase the damage PPS

M3 greasegun has even higher damage due to it’s low rate of fire. I guess it’s a similar case with MP40 vs PPS

Stop being ignorant. It’s like saying that camos has no real gameplay effects. Which is simply not true.
Yes, for majority of time they truly doesn’t. But there are definitely some moments they does. And I got killed because several times already.

Even cosmetics without body armor does have gameplay effect to some extent. Just like body armors. So this argument is not legitimate one.

Btw. If DF would just delete the bonus of body armors and didn’t tell anyone.
Literally nobody would notice until data miners would tell them. That’s how significant that bonus is, in fast TTK game like enlisted. :slight_smile:

But mp40 still killing u with 2 bullets faster, than pps killing u with 3 bullets

a lot of players spent their appearance orders because of those 10%
if they remove it they should refund every helmet and body armor

If 10% doesn’t make any difference we can just keep it

In my opinion it makes a huge difference = it would cause a lot of problems

1 body armor costs 240 gold
3 campaigns, 7 soldiers per squad, 4 squads, 2 different BRs
that’s about 40k gold =400€!!!

a lot of players have body armor worth 400€ and you want their body armor to not work anymore?

that’s like buying a lot of food but after you bought it the company that sold you the food poisons your food
