Strike Force Heroes 2 - Armor

[Justin]

We wanted to add a bit more customization to the game. A way to help the survivability of any character, or to add some passive bonuses without wasting your skill on them. So new to Strike Force Heroes 2 is...



Armor



Armor can be purchased and equipped just like any other item. There are many types of armor that can be worn which change or enhance certain properties of your soldier. The Kevlar as shown, is the basic armor everyone starts with. It doesn't add anything special, but provides a decent amount of armor. You can also find armor that improves your ammo capacity, health regeneration, etc.


Advanced Armor



If you're willing to pay a little more, you can purchase some advanced armor that has some strong properties but also some negative effects. This armor gives an extremely high amount of armor, but reduces your maximum amount of health as a result. There are also armors that give very little protection but are able to regenerate themselves, boost health, or even reflect bullets. Advanced armor is unique to certain classes, so for example only the heavier classes can equip the Titanium Armor, while the smaller classes can equip the lighter armors.


Extra Notes

To see what the armor looks like in game, click here. You can see the armor count in the bottom left of those screenshots, as well as the extra white portion of the payers health bar, showing how much armor he has.




Be sure to check back every Friday for more updates!

I DEMAND FIRST POST.

Anyways, yay, new update. I'll post my opinions later.

[MegaMrBob]

Wow... better and better every update. I would definitely want some armor with regenerating properties... keep up the good work!
Darn it ya beat me to it Roxxar!

[zoroark]

Wooo! I like this! Kevlar as real armor instead of a killstreak? Yes! (I guess we were all trying to get the first post...)

[Roxxar]

Now that I don't have to worry about first comment, I'll share my opinions:

Mother of god, I LOVE ARMOR. Titanium looks awesome. Oh man...this is gonna be GREAT!

I can concur that this Development update will be absolutely awesome.

I wanna get regenerative armor max level, katanas, guns, and then hack the game to implant a Deadpool skin there.

IT'S. GONNA. BE. AWESOME.

So, does armor have the same defense as your regular health? For example, if you have an armor rating of 100, would it go down as quickly as if you had a health rating of 100, and were taking the same amount of damage? Or does the armor have a higher "defense" than the health?

Now I'm still waiting for the tank...

Huh. It ain't like that, or else there would be no need for high armor weapons. I personally think that Armor will be something that stops damage for a bit and then breaks.

So the question would then be, would you either have more resistance for some time, or less health but passively?
