General Zod 1118 Posted November 22, 2015 Interesting, googled it, and most people say plate carrier offers very little protection. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Red_Ensign 990 Posted November 22, 2015 doesn't really matter - most kos people aim for your legs to get more of your stuff intact. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
General Zod 1118 Posted November 22, 2015 Yes it matters, because regardless of where they aim, it's always better to wear more protection. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Konfucious K 183 Posted November 22, 2015 I remember reading somewhere that it is also dependent on the amount of items you have in it at the time. But never got around to confirming it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Killawife 599 Posted November 24, 2015 Actually I believe what was found was that the more items you carry inside clothing, the more damage you take. The best thing is to carry everything inside containers. But its not super-important as most rifles kill you with one shot irrregardless of your clothes/armour. its kinda dumb since in real life the whole object of a ballistic vest or plate carrier is to prevent bullets from getting through it. Lets hope they develop this further. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LucidHills 94 Posted November 25, 2015 So I'm carrying a press vest inside a plate carrier. Am I invincible ? I don't think so. I am pretty sure it's the number of items that matter, not what the items are. It's better to fill your inventory with one slot items, or one slot items inside containers as the container counts as one too.

Either way, putting things in containers helps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
