Incredibly unbalanced, which then messes with weapons that aren't even balanced properly yet, cause you're shooting at someone, get the first few shots in, but then die cause the other guy had armour plates on even though you shot him first, which is just unfair to be honest.
Unnecessary gadget, unbalanced, Just remove it pls
@LancySchemerIt’s also a very selfish gadget. It doesn’t benefit anyone on your team except yourself. I feel like it was only put in the game because DICE was originally planning on making a crappy Battle Royale (which would explain the giant empty maps). It’s a detriment to both gunplay and teamplay, but I doubt DICE will do anything about it. But who knows, maybe they’ll remove it by 2024 if they stick with their current snail-like pace.
I just been playing tryna level up the AK and everyone i shoot at is wearing armour and takes more than half a mag, and 99% percent of the time they kill me. Even if i be pumping bullets into them first.
Then thought eff it, I decided to try wearing armour (normally I avoid using this gadget), beamed in 2-4 shots by smgs. Armour plates in this game is ruining it and weapon balance being poo sticks just does not help the situation.
Body armor is not a fun gadget.
It does nothing to promote a sandbox feeling. It is not fun to use. It is not fun to play against. It is not interesting and cannot do interesting things.
It adds nothing.
Get it out of here.
...and if it must stay add some or all of the following trade offs:
-add 5-10% penalty to movement speed
-add 5-10% penalty to reload speed
-add 5-10% penalty to ADS speed
Yeah, add me to the list too, armor plates gotta go.
Totally agree. Plates must be removed. It just messed with the weapon balance, especially the DMRs, And currently all 3 DMRs are useless when you think you will kill in 3 hits, but then you neeed a 4th one.
Just destroys the learning curve and throws out the windows the idea of muscle memory.
@LancySchemerYes, those Plates definitely have to go. But this would make the game better, so rest assured that they will stay in the game!
And if we learn anything from the forums and the interaction with Dice that way: the more we try to convince Dice that they should be removed, the more likely is that they will stay.
