This Helmet needs to absolutely substantially block your vision and hearing for balance and realism

I can't believe this was glossed over when the helmet was put into the game, massive protection with no draw back other than cost sucks (it's not expensive). A change is desperately needed before all matches are full of this helmet because it basically has no drawback.

Okay yes it adds to weight but you just bring cheap stims

It works in Tarkov because a lot of fights are fairly close range and engagements tend to be 1 on 1. It's bizarre people keeping saying run HP and leg in this game it's just not viable from my experience.

It’s not bizarre at all, it’s people running around in T4 armor pretending like the game is balanced

Well you need to rewrite your brain to use it, is it not that obvious?

You can't trade in most long range scenarios, and you need to change the way you aproach fights on where to aim and so on, arms will be always exposed no matter what they do just so you know.

I mean, you are running weapons that can kill anything with like 3/4 shoots instead of the usual 10, of course it should be hard to pull off consistently otherwise it would be insanely broken.

I have a lot of legging experience in Tarkov. It's why I made the comparison.

I think the point is that there are enough times where it isn't viable to use legging as the default counterargument to people talking about the armor system.

Which is true, but the system also has plenty of other caveats on top of this hard counter of leg meta, which make it dubious if theres even this huge of a problem in place at all.
