gun in pants blocking shots

[MangoX 10]

So saturday seems to nice day to play seen two guys and both tried kos me on sight. Didnt even actually never saw the sniper one but heard hes 5-6 shots while i was running trough open field. Anyways the other guy with m4 tried to spray me on sight i ranned behind corner and took defensive position while started to retreat slowly. Got away from him but he did definetly hit me my screen went blurry (which i fixed by going into video settings and back). But there was no bleeding and no wounds. So i checked my items and my tssk pants had went from pristine to ruined and magnum in my pants went from pristine to badly damaged. So looks like gun in my pants blocked hes shot?

I guess so, i have noticed a few things like this as yesterday i got hit in the leg with a shotgun and after giving myself morphine i noticed their was no bleeding but my magnum and 90% of the items in my pants had degraded or been completely ruined.

Is that a gun in your pocket?......

It seems that items stored in your pants and shirt/hoodie/jacket take the most damage. A good idea is to store more valuable items in your backpack and things like rags or spare food in your trousers.

Although the system is buggy, where you are hit effects the damage to items in the slots. You don't always bleed when you are hit.

yeah rocket mentioned that they have or plan to implement that items reduce damage, so if a bullet does 200 damage, and you have something in that slot that takes 150 heath to ruin, then the item will receive most of the damage, while your body receives very little

 

time to fill your inventory with protector cases and ballistic helmets :D (...in theory)
