Man, I hate the current shield sound myself, but only because I associate it with getting frustrated.
Nothing like landing 4 consecutive shock primary hits and all you hear is "pish! pish! pish! pish!" followed by the shield gun's "doooooooo" as he runs away.

Not too sure on the helmet pickup either. It sounds more gimmicky and something you would make in a mod, and not really something that comes out of the box. Also the use of it as you guys already said, would be more frustrating for the attacker than it would be satisfying for the attack-ee. I can't imagine myself going "YEAH! I got the helmet pickup!", but I sure as heck can imagine myself going "F* SAKE! That would have been a friggen headshot!". Poor tradeoff imo.

It all depends though. Does it "reduce" headshot damage or prevent it entirely, does the helmet get removed when you get headshot, does it last for 15 seconds or 5 minutes, and all that stuff.
I wonder if it has a visual indicator. I can't see it actually being shown on your character which would be kinda lame, considering how each character is so widely different, not to mention custom ones.

Correct me if Im wrong but I thought they were going back to armor and thighpads and things like that. So couldn't the helmet be one of those where it might reduce headshot damage by 50% but as it is hit it loses armor points? That way after a few headshots (1 or 2, somewhere around there) it would be gone anyway.

Long drawn-out description that everyone who is co
I think they're going for models having their own heavy armour, thigh pads, jump boots, and helmet models. Sounds bitchin'.

It's going to be awsome if we can see what armour people are actually wearing.

A helmet? :con:

I'd have to see how that was implemented, sounds like an odd thing to add.

Cool, thanks for the previews. Sounds good to me, except there's still one thing I don't like; the way the link gun no longer uses the energy string. :(

As far as the helmet goes, I imagine all it does is give you a second chance at escaping a headshot. You get a headshot, half of whatever health you have disappears, the helmet is destroyed. You get hit again, you're dead. Sort of like, a double headshot. Sounds cool, actually.

maybe like the pariah helmet. IIRC, it would avoid a headshot with the helmet flying after, but other weapons could take the helmet off, like the machinegun. So basically we could shoot with the stinger or enforcers to make the helmet fall, then you just headshot him. (but i'm not sure if it's really that way in Pariah)

Locational armor sounds ok to me. Plus you'll need a helmet in case you fall off your hoverboard.
