post cool armor
>>724347102I wish the altyn was more common in games, same with the KS-23.Both impractical, but still cool.
>Titanium helmet is impracticalExplain yourself.
I Luv the Nutzi dieselpunk vibes
>>724347102
SPACE MARINES! ATTACK!
>>724347672>Titanium helmet with full titanium face mask that pulls your head forward and down regularly and makes using sights difficult just to stop 9x19 rounds and shrapnelIt's very impractical outside of SWAT type usecases, even moreso when you factor in how much of a pain in the ass titanium is to work with.Sure, it's still a really cool helmet, and if someone shoved an AK into my arms and told me to clear a room full of Chechens, I'd rather have it over nothing or an old WW2 pot helmet, but it's just not very useful in a general use kinda way.What WOULD be cool is a modern version that keeps the old form but improves the protection enough to stop actual intermediate rifle rounds.
>>724347102Caesar's legion has the coolest armor in fallout despite being technologically behind the major factions.
>>724348570People say it looks ugly but I don’t blame em. Only boomers like me know it’s inspired by Lord Humungus' Marauders. They probably dont even know what the fuck I’m talking about until they Google search it
>>724348441Sorry I forgot to tag you in the post, I thought I clicked on your name. When I served, we had ceramic plate armor transitioning from Kevlar. Our helmets were still made of Kevlar though, and if anything but a ricochet caught your helmet, your helmet was FUCKED. I wish I had a titanium helmet like that when I was in the service. But yeah you're right, you're not going to stop a 5.45x39 at range with a helmet, physics just won't allow it. The energy has to go somewhere.
No Soldier will ever look as cool as this man
Why does a gas mask make everything 10x cooler?
I mean, technically it is armor
>>724349324To be honest, I do have to agree with titanium as a material for armor.Titanium as a material for helmets and armor as a whole is still a pretty good idea, it's stronger than steel by weight meaning you can either have stronger plates for the same weight or equivalent strength for less.My only real point of contention is with the altyn specifically, since you're trading a lot of visibility and a less cumbersome form for protection that could be done with lighter materials without a face shield that when open, you constantly have to compensate for.I had a chance to wear one once since a friend of mine collects older soviet surp, it was like wearing a motorbike helmet as a kid, very comfortable when you're sitting or stationary with the shield down, but once you get moving or have it up, you really start to notice the extra effort you have to put in to keep your head up when you're not standing straight.For it's time, it must have been a great piece of kit, but I feel like more modern designs that just straight up weigh less would be more ideal.
>>724349615epic rap battle when
>>724349615HUNK so cool he doesn't even need sights on his gun>>724350705This guy still has front sights (no rear sights though)So he's not as cool
>>724347102it really pisses me off that the multiplayer variant of the armor doesnt have shoulder pads
>>724350705Man I miss old Siege. Before it got turned to extra-shit. Mute was one of my most played (the SAS lads in general were great).
>>724350852yeah, i kinda meant that he would lose the battle bc HUNK is the best, no question >>724350981I'll never forgive how they took away classic Hereford. that was when Siege really died for me but i kept going for a few hundred more hours...i haven't played for years though. dear God
>>724350981my favorite was pre buff blitz, the shield and flash was so buggy, but he looked so cool, so i had to pick him
>>724347102What is the purpose of the tactical welding mask?
>>724351420It's bulletproof.
>>724350360>My only real point of contention is with the altyn specifically, since you're trading a lot of visibilityThat is why most of the time the visor is up. Everyone knows, this is the COOLEST position of the helmet.
>>724347303Ngl the t45 and the t60 are badass
>>724347102Jian armour is the coolest, Culter-babbies need not apply, the new captcha is a Culter-Dei machination
>>724351503no, but is ALMOST bulletproof, its main purpose is giving you courage, the secondary is stopping bullets
>>724347102need the ss13 nukies armor on the big screen in HD ngl
>>724350705>average dosh enjoyer
Out of all the ODST armors, my favorite is the original Halo 2 followed by 3
>>724350981Old Rainbow Six used to look alright before their organization and Clarke died. Vegas 1 and 2 are the last vestiges of that old style before they swapped over.
Siege stopped being fun after the Brazil map and season came out.

This dude oozes cool
>>724351624JIAN SHIT.
behold!
>>724347738Wolf TNO and TNC's armor are fucking cool
>>724353348I wanna try and get in dragon's dogma. No clue why I couldn't last time I tried to play
>>724352845Kinda reminds me of some Destiny 2 armor
>>724353889Before the new shitty looking armor tho
>>724353745it's basically ng+ the game, it's meant to be played over and over the whole story and game is about cycles. the combat is perfect imo and when you mess around with crossover skills it becomes really fun.
>>724353348Still mad this didnt come with pants but thats what Dexfags deserve I suppose.>>724351684It looks so comfortable for a suit of armor
>>724350083I love big shoulder pads
Killing bandits and mutants all day, everyday.
>>724353948It is very heroic with the glows.
This guy looks like a beast because he is one.
>>724354665Some armor are fucking neat
>>724354732he was meant to be the chosen one in DS3
>>72434991413th century armor and clothing is cool, i wish there was more games in that setting/style
>>724351618>t, Todd
Anything made by shinkawa
Battle dresses are cool but dont know how hes able to move
>>724347102The fake frankenguns really ruin the aesthetics of MGSV. Great designs otherwise but with a big turd placed across them.
>>724355209Defined eyes + eye slits on face masks and helmets = instant kino
>>724348441>What WOULD be cool is a modern version that keeps the old form but improves the protection enough to stop actual intermediate rifle rounds.That's LshZ-2DTM
Peak scifi
>>724351420Obviously it's to protect against bullets, frag, and blunt objects. The Spetsnaz still use such Sphera helmets with Maska visors.Every country has something similar. Most visors are completely transparents.
>>724355394Those armor bits are clearly partitioned and jointed. Just like oldschool plate armor.
>>724350852>HUNK so cool he doesn't even need sights on his gunI mean, you can't really aim with a gas mask. You just point in the general direction and pray.
>>724360159God, I fucking love the combine style. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Bm3le9s3-A
Damn nigga those are some cool armors
>>724350503Dude, imagine an enemy design that's like a KKK dude but you could see imprints of armor plates under the robes, and maybe that face veil thing would just be bare armor.
>>724347738Does this version even exist in game? I have never seen a full render of this, just this one pic.
>>724356920The Dead Space IP has some glorious suits.
>>724359738Shinkawa is able to make even the most basic enemy look badass.
>>724353948d2 armor never transcends being mediocre or just straight up shit
>>724351624>Ooga booga big hatYour moron face is good for party masks alone
>>724347738What do you think is supposed to be the idea with the big pauldron handles
Republic Commando was fucking awesome.
>>724364592Gay
>>724364947Prequel-era Star Wars had so many damn great designs.
>>724351859For me, it’s H2A ODST, the best ODST armor
>>724364947sad star wars will never be cool again
>>724364573
>>724354938only good looking set from that game
>>724351614Well yeah, wearing a steel pot on your head gets pretty warm.
>>724347951Why can't AI shake the pissfilter?
>>724366843Pretty decent designs but red appears to have chocolate shake shit himself
>>724349657it means preparation for actual survival, not just being skilled but being skilled in an already fucked environment. the gas mask signifies that the wearer is ready to outlast the environment itself to win an altercation with the enemy. It also helps that the large disc lenses create a massive point of focus and makes the wearer seem alien and unresponsive to anything but threat

>>724362772Agree my nig
>>724349615Resident Evil does tacticool faceless grunt way too cool. Hell, even the characters with faces have pretty awesome gear.Umbrella Security Service, Bioterrorism Security Assessment Alliance, whoever Agent works for.
>>724355082Too bad he slept through his alarm
>>724362690Probably because the guy you're replying to posted a nazi from TNC not TNO
>>724348868my knigga
>>724369172Agent is Ada's fucking tulpa.
>>724369708Probably because it is implied when I say "in game" that is IN TNO because it is written right there in the pic.

>>724347102Love the alt-future concepts from stalker, the ribcage ballistic armour, accordion padded joints and the double belt system attached to its own special rig for all manner of pouches and accessories that can even be vertically stacked.A grim but wonderful world unspoiled by the ubiquity of MOLLE

>nobody has posted Havel The Rock except me!Tsk tsk!
>>724368257How powerful would have they become if they didn't got killed by that kill switch?
>>724368257Because that game was kind of fun and didn't wank itself to the point of parody
>>724349657Inhuman but predator vision, focused purely on what's ahead of himVisibly demonstrates hard survivalist tendencies, the willingness to warp one's self to beat the very environmentEvery good vidya armor has an underlying theme running through it and the easiest is environmental hardiness >thick, almost baggy clothes>rebreathers and full helmets/masks>bulky at important wear points that happen to all accentuate strength and masculinity (creating a blocky rectangular silhouette)>reduction of available facial features (seriously, no standard outfit looks cool when you can see the entirety of a man's face, all of them need to focus the eyes forward to deflect blows)Stuff like fighter pilot helmets, if you could afford to lower the brow line a little bit, would be peak aesthetics. Function is defined by form in visual language
>>724366843>>724368257Doom 2016 armor was unironically so cool, crazy that they basically gave it all away for free and made it completely dyeable, for free. Last multiplayer vidya to do that I guess?>Why the fuck did I read the codex entries in Doom 2016?Because it was cool and like the other anon said it didn't take itself too seriously.
>>724351838Still mad they ruined kf tacticool aesthetic with the sequel. I just want to larp as gasmask guys killing zombies ffs.

>>724372974>a fishbowl visor that actually looks decentdidn't realize they existed besides Nod troopers (who cheat by having an extra helm on top of their visor)
I wish I could find higher quality images of MHW armors, most of them are pretty cool
>>724371195>>724373384The skull mask always looked retarded, regardless of the iteration.
>>724351859Halo 2 armor was more grounded. I don't know what happened, but Halo 3 just stuck metal chunks on people and called it a day.
>>724374484Fuck off, the balaclava with skull paint is cool and actually worn by IRL soldiers. The hard skull mask just look retarded and impractical

>>724351239>OH SHIT!
>>724360159
Red urban camouflage mixed into gorka-4 suits is a better combination than I would have thought.
>>724379624I feel like many people miss that those things coming out the soldiers eye sockets in HL:Alyx aren't just connector cables since the soldiers can still see and fight perfectly fine if the visor, and ostensibly their "eyes", have been shot off.
>>724370430The desert uniform is my personal favorite.

>>724380273If it wasn't for the fact that it outright says in the creators video I'd have had no idea this is supposed to be a Bretonian prince from warhammer fantasy.I don't think he did a good job.

When I still played this dogshit game I coveted every fullhelm knighty-looking armor like it was liquid gold.
I really liked the toned down militia look of the MC in soldiers. Even the caster and archer classes looked like an organized army and I like that.

It's really neat.
>>724356920What a terrifying franchise that doesn't let you wear this KINO rig in all three games, even if it would be less effective than the more advanced armours.I purposely didn't upgrade/change suit beyond the intermediary engineer rig because it's the best looking one easily.You can compensate for the weakness of the suit through pure skill, and the currency saved from doing so can go to upgrading the other equipment instead.

>>724351614The SR-3 Vikhr in the in-between state, very rare sight.Originally, the SR-3 was designed based on the AS VAl, a variant without a supressor and with a top folding stock, the idea was for it to be very compact in order to be used a a concealed assault rifle by VIP protection forces, in the pic you can see they still have the orginal, skorpion "charging handle" on the front of the gun instead of on the bolt, in order to save space.then they decided that anti-terror units would use them, so they added a removable supressor, but the soldiers complained about the awful folding stock and the stupid charging handle that made it worse than the original AS VAl, so the solution was the modernazied SR-3MP.Better stock, normal charging handle, removable supressor and covered in rails.Took them a while, but they finally made it better than the VAL.
