Survivor Halloween costume

[Crystalviolet 1]

I'm sure this will be a big one amoung gamers this year. Personally, I like to be as authentic as possible when I dress up for Halloween, and to that end, I'd like to find the IRL equivelents to the Survivor starter backpack and vest. Anyone know if these items are based off of real military equipment, and if so who makes them? If fictional, are there any good substitutions?

yes every equipment is based on real stuff. just google them in ArmA they use the real names

I was actually going to do this for the Adelaide Zombie Walk this year and see how many Day Z players I run into.

However I think I'll stick with my original plan of high quality fake teeth, white contact lenses, and a lots of fake blood.

That Blackhawk vest isn't the one they use in DayZ at all. Best bet is to get a Molle vest of your color and buy the pouches and attach them.

Awesome, thanks guys.

Yeah the in game vest doesn't seem to have the V neck that the blackhawk has. Almost looks like a plate carier to me.
