Vests

Recommended Posts

I've recently taken a slight break through the Christmas season, I come back to hear there are Black and green police ballistic vests and rumors the pouches for the plate carrier are already in game? I haven't found any of the sort. Also I use Android and different app called DayZ central rather than IZurvive. I have both apps and both have the hunter vest listed. Any word will be appreciated, thank you.

You can find some of this info (and more) on the wiki:
https://dayz.gamepedia.com/Clothing#Vests 
(There's even labels for how much damage each piece of clothing negates.)

(to my knowledge) We have everything except the Leather vest and the Assault vest (+ attachments) 

The Ballistic vest (Press, Police vest) has 2 colour variants (Blue, Light blue) 

The Tactical vest (High cap, Tac vest) Comes in Green and Black. (Not too sure where people are finding these but I've found many a dead bandit sporting this vest)

I've also heard that the Plate Carrier attachments (pistol holster, pouches) are in game. But with the mass amount of duping I think we'd find one by now.

I'm not too sure what you mean by "Hunter vests". You might be talking about one of the other vests, but I've heard they are planning on adding, or  re-adding (civilian) hunter vests.

They are, or were, also planning to add a reflective construction vest.

(i'm pretty sure this texture is already being used on a particular "construction worker" zombie)

Yes as a survivalist myself, I'd prefer to roll with a hunters vest but I've seen many a clip of ppl rolling with black and green police vests, and I've known about the press vest since launch. Correct?

They were probably wearing either "Tactical vests" or "Field vests" as I'm pretty sure these are the only currently implemented vests that come in both black and green colors. 

I've never found the Tactical vests anywhere except for on dead bodies. (Someone knows where to find them)

After comparing the wikis stats of the two vests they seem to negate virtually the same amount of damage. the only apparent difference is that the Tac vest holds 5 more pounds than the Field vest. So I really don't understand why they're any better than the field vests. (Being harder to find might make them something of a status symbol)

I would like to see some form of civilian vests added though. Even if it only adds 15 pounds to your inventory space.

anyone found the combat gas mask???

 

If you're talking about the more western style mask they're not yet implemented. At least not on the PC side anyway.
