Jex 1104 Posted July 30, 2014 Do run ballistic protection if you are playing in a group. There's no downside to looking menacing when your gang's bigger than theirs. Yesterday, one of us got shot with an intermediate cartridge or something twice in the head and twice in the chest. His stuff and helmet was ruined. After the attacker was removed, we stuck some blood up his ass and he was back up in no time. And here's what I looked like months ago in exp after being pelted with 5.56. Why does that screen shot remind me of Operation Flashpoint? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maninthewall 470 Posted July 30, 2014 (edited) im trying not to look a a major threat. im thinking of swaping my helmet for a boonie hat and my black tactical shirt for a green hoodie or t shirt. Im tired of being kos. I wish they had a nirvana t shirt in this game.If you don't wanna look like a "major threat", or the "casual bandit", go with some kind of hoodie/check shirt/tshirt, jeans, and put the axe in your backpack. And dont forget the matching baseball cap/beanie/radar cap This game after all is all about fashion Edited July 30, 2014 by ManInTheWall Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stoner69 3 Posted July 30, 2014 (edited) is the tactical shirt better than the ttsko shirt and are the cargo pants the same as the ttsko pants? I decided to trade in my ttsko uniform for a green tac shirt and cargos. whats the best clothing for a lone wolf in this game?

I've been headshotted, passed out, my friend killed the enemy and when I got back up everything was pristine but my ballistic helmet wich was ruined, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
taco86 156 Posted July 30, 2014 (edited) Blocks around one round of 5.56 or around 10 rounds of .22. Does not block 7.62x39 and above or .357 and .45 ACP. Sadly the implementation of the ballistic helmets makes no sense... Realistically a 3a kpot helm can defeat tens of .45acp and .357 before failure... A single 5.56 though? Yeah right... Hicks shooting stuff, enjoy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w9OSc5FKe98 Edited July 30, 2014 by taco86 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stoner69 3 Posted July 31, 2014 is ttsko a better camo than solid olive drab green? I have the green tac shirt, cargos, helmet and high cap vest in green. I thought it matched better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
