--------------------------------------------The idea----------------------------------------------

Recently i was playing Battlefield 2042 and in the game you don't have any armor until you put on the armor plate, my rework is based on the BF 2042 plate system but with tweaks.

Main point of my idea is to divide players into two groups.

1. Slow moving people who have armor but have no gadgets.

2. Faster moving people who have gadgets but no armor.

Explanation - Introducing two groups adds diversity to the game, offering players different playstyles: one more forgiving and accessible, while the other presents a thrilling challenge demanding strategy, map awareness, and mastery of game mechanics.

---------------------------------------------Basics------------------------------------------------

  1. New gadget Armor Plate

  2. No Helmet Armor - The helmets have originally been made for shrapnel, not for bullets. Thus every headgear has the same stats. / The only exception is Exo Armor for Support.

  3. When **Deployed ** you will have no armor - Spawning without armor would farther divide the player base.

-------------------------------------------Armor Plate--------------------------------------------

How it works.

  1. Replaces the first gadget in every class. (C4, Anti Personnel mine etc.)

  2. One plate fully restores Armor.

  3. When Deployed you can have only Two plates.

  4. Plates can be restored in Ammo Kit's.

  5. Plate lowers mobility. (See below in Armor stats.)

-------------------------------------------Armor stats--------------------------------------------

Just a little tweaks to the armor.

Normal

Durability 25 -> 20

Heavy

Durability 43 -> 30

Running-Aiming speed 92,5% -> 90%

Ranger

Durability 12 -> 13

Exo

Exo Helmet

The only helmet with Armor

Same stats

Not affected by Armor plates

like 30 years ago sure.

Partially correct, helmets are made to protect from shrapnel as well as other hazards, bullets included

# candid fossil like 30 years ago sure.

Sadly still helmets cannot take bigger cartridges like 5.56 or 7.62. They will stop the bullet but you will die ether of bleeding out, skull cracked or blunt dmg.

#

They can take small arms

#

Like 9mm

#

Obviously getting hit point blank in the helmet will just kill the person

#

But on longer ranges the survivability increases to an extent

#

Also varies on caliber and all

north lark
#

But most of the weapons in game are high caliber

#

Regardless, id keep the gamey aspect of helmets as opposed to just making them realistic

Finally, if it already looked like CoD gameplay, now it's going to look like Warzone, giving me plates every 5 minutes

So, basically it is putting the plates as an accessory, I love it

#

Maybe like in BF2042, leave it mostly to the assault of the plate system because of course this class is the first to go to the enemy lines

People seem to forget that oki only listens to the absolute tryhard sweats who only care about “muh kills” and not about actual teamwork.

yeah and yet helmets are holding up with minimal deformation

#

some helmets don't deform at all on edge hits nowadays

@candid fossil @fossil plaza and @north lark What do you think about making a post related to making a different style of game, not missilm mode, not so realistic, but more like Battlefield, that is, arcade but with realistic touches and with, of course, teamwork?

I think it’s just gonna flop unfortunately

You can try but honestly I don’t think it will get far.
