Make armor and their perks separate

[Halo 2 Vista]

Do you agree? You should!

[Koala 4peace]

A lot of people agree. The devs don't. Simple as.

I agree, It would mean skins - and skins means prizes, monetisation through a skins market etc.

I don't like it but I'd prefer it to what seems to be happening - a Planetside 2 style monetisation Sony special - where power creep and a constantly shark-jumping supply of new weapons bewilder and bloat the game beyond all enjoyability.

We actually had a discussion about this on Discord recently, where it would be beneficial if all armors and weapons use the default black and yellow colour scheme of the Helldivers.

We should have another option to set colours and stripes, just like in Helldivers 1, lots of armors and weapons simply look bad together, cause they all have different themes.

i like this reminds me 0f the first war arsenal :D

[KingOfFriedChicken]

It really should be lol I love the prosthetic arm and leg skin so it's what I use lol don't see a lot of disabled represention in war or shooter style games so I'm all for it

[Aradia Megido]

i really wish a few sets c0uld be given the sc0ut perk th0ugh because rn i get t0 ch00se between trailblazer sc0ut 0r infiltrat0r f0r aesthetics and its a lil limited

h0nestly a system where its 0nly perks that m0ve ar0und but we d0nt get like light arm0r characteristics 0n f0rtified c0mmand0 (michelin man arm0r) i think it w0uld be 0k

0r maybe they just need t0 release m0re arm0rs with the 0ld passives

[Clone303]

no, i dont, the armors give meaning now but wtih they parks they dont

[Enzime]

you should 100% be able to pick your armours passive ability
i think the default helldiver outfit is by far the coolest looking set in the game, but im not gonna wear it because the extra armour bonus isnt noticeable on any difficulty and i much prefer to have extra grenades.

But i cant see AH ever letting people have this option because it might hurt their warbond and superstore sales a little

Same here, I run xtra throwables as well and wouldnt give that up for a fashion choice.

Yeah, they also didn't agree on how good Primary weapons should be, and we changed their mind in that regard. For all of Arrowhead's faults, they do seem capable of listening and learning from their mistakes. Hopefully "apple that tastes like bacon" is one more of those.

[It's Dunk]

Currently I equip armour for its looks and perk is secondary so separated would be good.

I pray that you are right.
