mayfaire 2 Posted August 12, 2012 What do you guys think fits best? Maybe Camo Clothing + black guy at night/Ghillie at daytime?I've also heard a lot of rumors about camo clothing giving some kind of body-protection, if that's true - nice, but what do you think about the visibility aspects in different light-conditions when comparing these two?I'm quite interested to hear your opinions! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LunaTiK (DayZ) 45 Posted August 12, 2012 Ghillie suit all around. It's got too many advantages night or day and also hides your backpack which makes you stand out big time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
General Dickbutt 41 Posted August 12, 2012 Ghillie in the forest and camo in the city.Just a personal choice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
riesenkartoffel@gmail.com 7 Posted August 12, 2012 (edited) I'd say Ghillie, but only when away from big cities. When looting civilian clothes. If wearing special clothes around other players, you'll propably get shot (same with civilian, but special clothing seems to attract PKers little more)edit. Of course if you have bandit towel, wear any other clothing over it. Edited August 12, 2012 by riesenkartoffel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LeBanishedAngel (DayZ) 0 Posted August 12, 2012 I'm thinking Ghille all the time. It's your only source of camouflage during the day, and at night it's even easier to mistake it for a patch of weeds. skip to 8:30 for an example. All of the guy's friends were killed and now their enemy is searching for him. He managed to escape though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hawk24 94 Posted August 12, 2012 (edited) Ghillie>Camo>Civilian camo in the city.Camo has not a single advantage over Ghillie in an urban enviromentThe Ghillie effectively breaks up your silhoutte and hides your backpackThe Camo suit just paints your clothes green and removes the cap Edited August 12, 2012 by Hawk24 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hinaru 96 Posted August 12, 2012 Ghillie all the way. Especially if your laying prone in the forest. Or whatever. You don't have to change for camo in the cities. :o Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AntAir 0 Posted August 12, 2012 I prefer the camo clothing to ghilie for everything but nwaf raids then i use ghillie. One thing the camo does that helps my squad is it helps us identify who is with us and who isn't as for the most part everyone wants a ghillie over camo.

wullybee 52 Posted August 12, 2012 To be honest I prefer camo, not because of any advantages of each item, but I think my character looks better in it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZlobaRUS54 441 Posted August 12, 2012 Camo is better universally, plus imho ghillie looks silly, and at least for me "identifying" with you char is part of the reason to play in 3dp. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr-Zer0 62 Posted August 12, 2012 Soldier Clothing for me. The Soldier outfit was removed from the Loot Tables and looks like this.You could find some at old camps or from a Hacker. I currently wear this outfit with a L85A2 AWS and G17, makes me look just like a Soldier... :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mayfaire 2 Posted August 12, 2012 Wrong, if the server has the "armor" setting turned on (which most servers have on by default) the camo clothing will give you a "bonus defense" against small fire armsSo the body armor really protects you from "small arms fire" like MP5/G17? Does it give you some kind of protection against assault rifles like M-Variants/AK's too? Like less damage from body shots maybe? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
