protective cases should be,,,,, protective

I don't know why this isn't already in the game, if its glitched or what's going on here. but protective cases should protect their contents until their either badly damaged or ruined. simple, makes sense. vote.

They protect them against weather conditions not bullets.

It's not a bullet proof case.

 

Like said above it protects from the elements, and they're usually designed to also protect from your general banging (i.e. scratches, bumps, dropping, etc.).

they still get damaged, along with everything inside them, when a zombie slaps me. their fingers are not made of bullets

A zombie? you must be in the wrong forums, no zombies in dayz ;)

Never really tested it, might have to put a couple books in case, put the case in my pants and a couple books in my pack and go swimming and see if the individual items get wet/damp

[Combine (DayZ) 247]

Correct me if I'm wrong but the description even mentions protection up to or at military standards. Which could include that.

 

In any case, damage should be significantly lower (or depending on damage, nonexistent)  to anything in them unless you get turned into swiss cheese. Or so.

My shoes didn't get wet when I went swimming with them in my pockets.
