I meant to put this post up a long long time ago, but hey, im lazy.
I beleive I read somewhere in the manual or roadmap that INF planned to put in body armor. All I can say to this is, NO!!@!!!!!!! HELL!!! NO!!! PLEASE OH PLEASE NO!!!!
One of the reasons I like INF so much is because it doesnt take half a clip of ammo from an m16 to drop someone. *cough...counter strike....cough* The point of body armor in a combat situation is not to keep the soldier in combat after being shot (at least not the body armor I know of) but to keep him alive. The same principal applies to most helmets, they wont stop a direct (no angle) bullet, but they will deflect sharpnel and bullets hitting at an angle. The way I see it now, you already have body armor on in INF, you can take two solid chests hits from an M16 before going down. You can take even more from smaller caliber rounds. If body armor was added to the game it would mean players could take an extra one or two rounds from an m16, and maybe 3 or 4 more from an mp5 or pistol. That to me sounds like Counter Strike. For this reason I beleive body armor should not be added to the game, just retype some text and say the troops already have it on.
For the lazy ones, heres a summerary
1. Dont put body armor in.
