Isn't there a Terry Pratchett book with that in it? Million to one shots happen 9 times out of 10 if:
You're the lovechild of a king and a scullery maid.
You don't know you're the heir to the throne.
You have no training with bows and arrows.
You're the last line of defence.
Somebody nearby says "He'll never do it"

No fabric is bulletproof.

Its bullet resistant not bullet proof.

It may stop a 9mm round at 50 meters but it not going to stop a .50cal round thats made to bust thru thick armored plating at over a mile away.

I understand this is a game & they use alien tech but think about it why wouldn't the use the backpack as full body armor? i mean your trying to say its bullet proof stops all bullet i mean dam they should use it as a suit.

not relevant to the question of whether a backpack could be made bulletproof in the planetside world

It won't matter, by the time you would try to take the shot one of our Vanu infiltration specialists will have ensured you are deceased.
