new concept armors

[Knuckles]

Nahh...

I'd rather drop the travel mode, since it's the slots and the added inventory space that I'm really after.

Ok - I'll stop now. (I'm starting to get obsessive here. I can feel it. )

lol...okok, now it just needs a name....we'll call it the
Un-Balanced Extreme Reinforced armor, or UBER armor for short! Lmao

Nice! I like that one. Well balanced but not too powerfull. Mabye some limitations like can only carry one rifle sized in back pack.

SCUBA armor.

Same vehicle restirctions & speed as reinforced, same inventory and weapon slots as agile...

And never runs out of air, nor is slowed down in water. Perhaps even grants the user the long lost, double secret, super-duper ability to.... swim.

This long-lost technique, "Swimming" was recently rediscovered by the only survivor of a VS Galaxy that exploded over water. Joe "Mad Thrasher" McGilicuty describes his aquatic epiphany:

So I was like, falling, and stuff. And then I was wet, and I couldn't breath, and stuff. And that kinda sucked. So I got all scared, and hey, I EARNED that name. So there I was, thrashing around, and my feet just magically left the bottom of the lake. Woah! So I kept thrashing, and pretty soon I was at the top of the water and could breathe again. It was SO cool.

^I agree with the scuba thing. Some sort of armor or cert or something that would let you at the very least walk longer underwater would be very fun.

If that PS navy patch/expansion rumor ever comes into existance, I'd bet something like the scuba armor would be implemented.

I think they should but in Eng and Medic Armor. Maybe with an extra pistol slot to carry the special tools? The armor would have Eng or Medic textures so you can tell who they are on the battle field. You would get the special armor when you buy the eng or medic certs. I think it would be very helpful in being able to tell who is a medic or end and such on the field. It would still have 150 armor same as reinforced just having the medic or eng textures on the armor would help significantly

yea, so they can make new weapons and new vehicles, but what could they do to expand the armor choices? Post your ideas here for shits and giggles. Heres one me and xenon dreamed up in psu chat.

The backpack armor: basically standard armor (100pts.) with 1 rifle and 2 pistol slots and an inventory double the size of reinforced. With the backpack you would be slow and couldn't ride in heavy vehicles but what if you could shed the backpack. This would leave you with standard armor but you could get into all vehicles. And then what if the backpack you droped is just like one from a corpse? It stays so that people can get stuff out of it until you die or change armors.
This would be great for the engineer who wants to have a regular weapons loadout and still carry a bunch of deployables, then he could drop the backpack and run around fighting and keep going back to it for more deployables. Basically its a trunk you can leave indoors that cant be blown up. You could fill it with sniper rounds, decimators, or even quick medkits. I guess it would be balanced because the guy would have realy weak armor to fight, but can be more flexible and helpful to the team. Reaver and misquito pilots would love it too. Get the backpack loaded with ammo, drop it off somwhere, and hop in the reaver for an even faster way to rearm yourself anywhere you want. Hopefully you could lock it somehow like the trunk in a MAX.

Solid idea. Do MAXes have trunks? I thought that was removed.

Then that is reinforcing the Idea of Classes, somthing PS does not need, people starting to classify larg groups of people into a few classes...

[Mold]

scuba gear is a great idea....
I dont see how they cant have this armor once they bring in the navy into the game, otherwise bailing out of a boat will be suicide. It could also work as an implant.

oh, and i bet max's dont have trunks anymore... i never use maxes nor have i used a trunk of one, that was just based off something i heard a while ago i guess.

Interesting ideas
