So you trade invisibility for no armour. Fair trade.

Well i still thing its not too nerfed you cant shoot what you cant see but it can shoot you. I do think it should allow for rifles but not the bolt perhaps. The inf suit seems pretty hard to balance, and maybe they should have given it like 25/25 or 50/50 armor or somethin.

yes but if they had given it any amout of armor alot more people would be useing it and there trying to give each item disadvantages like that so there isnt all 5000 people on the server wearing infill suits

Theres no "nerf"!!! The inf suit never has been able to carry rifles, thats always been known.

It can carry pistol sized equipment, that means it can take an AMP. I don't need a rifle or a bolt driver as a stealth, thats a snipers job. My job is to scout, and sneak - up close and personal like.

think he ment the AMP..

AMP
Source:Common Pool
Handling: Pistol
Damage: Medium
Maximum Range: Medium
Refire Rate: Very Fast

The AMP is designed for close range combat. It is the only fully automatic weapon of its type and can empty a full clip of ammunition very quickly. However, it suffers from poor recoil, causing it to be very inaccurate when fired in full automatic mode.

Yep sorry I meant the AMP, not SMG, an AMP is basically an Uzi thats how I got confused.

Post editted to reflect this.

Nice find zat, but what if he was shot so that it brought his armor to 0?

Not an option.

Says 0/0 not 0/25 hehe.

Keep in mind that guy infiltrator is running in that shot. :)

If they have 0 armor and are that visible while running, being an infiltrator is gonna be a difficult and annoying task. I think they should at least have 25 armor or something

1- That is far from being visible, he's visible cause there is no action but i dare you to try and see this guy from 5 feet away when you have 4 other guys shooting you. :)

2- A cloakers job isn't to run around and shoot, it's recon or deep cover sabotage meaning it's a slow and careful mission not run in base and hope no one sees you.

I'm glad they're taking special care to not make infiltration overpowered. Look at DAoC if you want to see a game being ruined by overpowered stealthers.

You can walk, which is slower then running, which means you will be less visible :)
