Do the motorcycle helmets provide better head protection than other hats?

Does anyone know?

[TIC 1050]

Yes, it's best against blunt objects.

What do you think?

Yes, it has some slight protection against gunfire and considerable protection against bleeding and knockout.

 

Ballistic helmet is far better against guns but not as much protection from blunt impacts.

 

Other hats have slight protection but not much.

Screw protection! I'll take my beanie, shades and mouthbind any day

Well there are a lot of things in the alpha that aren't functional so I feel like it's a pretty valid question.

How about the gas mask? Is there anything in game yet it protects against? I've been using that just in case, but if it doesn't do anything I might as well put a helmet on

Fact or fiction? but I have read it will help prevent cross infection when interacting with infected players

That is a good idea, at the moment I am wearing my gas mask just because I figure nobody in dayz has access to a shower and running water so things are probably getting a bit ripe...
