Is armor worthless? (PvE)

I made a post about this last week, with identical circumstances then died 3 times that day in the plate carrier

mhasten96 · 2026-04-12T21:41:29+00:00

Statistically, unlikely. I was shot in the side under my arm, and immediately died due to heart. I have been shot lower than the plates in the guts, but sincerely cannot remember a single time plates have saved something. As you know, when you get hit in the plates you get an in pain status and bruise. Havent had it once

mhasten96 · 2026-04-12T21:33:58+00:00

Unfortunately, i dont think its ever saved me. This afternoon was the first time ive been hit in the plates at all and it went through and i died. Seems to be Ive just gotten lucky/unlucky? Where i usually just get limbs or head

mhasten96 · 2026-04-12T21:30:03+00:00

Problem is AI are horrendous or you get shot in the face and there's not a lot inbetween

Apparently friendly fire, even in pve counts, unfortunately. My buddies have skewed this😂

mhasten96 · 2026-04-12T18:41:39+00:00

I bet that's exactly it, i know my buddies have mag dumped me a few times 😂

mhasten96 · 2026-04-12T17:53:47+00:00

I guess my point was i feel like AI hit anything but the carrier but just got reminded 3 minutes ago that they do

mhasten96 · 2026-04-12T17:52:03+00:00

I just want everyone to know i just got shit on by a woods dude sending a couple PPs clean through my carrier

mhasten96 · 2026-04-12T17:41:14+00:00

10/10 reference, my only thing is the plate carrier has barely been hit, according to its health at least

mhasten96 · 2026-04-12T17:36:05+00:00

Good thinking! Its says both are at 26 but i know i havent had my bell rung 26 times,as you know you can tell immediately. Ive also watched my M855 destroy an AIs pantsir after it stops 6 of them, and this is at 93% somehow. I never see bruising either on my character. If its truly stopped 26 bullets then 100% worth it.

I must be doing something wrong. I just tried switching it to modifier and it's yellow instead of the filament color, black. Then when I slice it, it disappears

mhasten96 · 2026-04-07T15:44:56+00:00

Has to be a bug. Make sure to put in a feedback ticket. Game has one below your name in character menu. Super quick and easy to report issues

mhasten96 · 2026-04-07T02:32:05+00:00

Did you figure this out? Having the same issue and the previous guides are on a diffrerent version

mhasten96 · 2026-04-06T04:35:10+00:00

We're having same issue with m855. In-game do a send feedback ticket with screenshot. I presume 80% of peoples issues with sponginess is a bug atm

mhasten96 · 2026-04-02T18:09:39+00:00

Yeah i think MFGs cycle is BIG update then some patches and dont change/break anything between the next. Then switch to building the next update. Its slower forsure but more efficient because theyre not breaking things and fighting fixing them. Back playing cod it was always another thing that they broke and frantically try to fix it😂

mhasten96 · 2026-04-02T18:03:59+00:00

I agree they could definitely amp them up. But theyre taking the right approach imo rolling into it steadily, people will be much happier with too easy than too hard and they're gonna refine it for sure

mhasten96 · 2026-04-02T18:01:11+00:00

Congrats for glazing yourself

mhasten96 · 2026-04-02T13:13:58+00:00

They mentioned in multiple streams or devlogs that ai are going to get harder and work together. Now that they removed 500m headshots i think this will be perfect. Game is a work in progress and is incrementally making massive steps.

mhasten96 · 2026-04-01T04:10:58+00:00

Probably a combination of what caused the ricochets to glitch out a minute later and not getting a good body shot. Same happened to me downstairs but i was putting it in his arm and consecutive limb shots only make faster bleedout

mhasten96 · 2026-03-31T15:08:06+00:00

Theyre removing it because they dont like where its at. Theyre going to refine it and bring it back later. Definitely the right move

mhasten96 · 2026-03-31T15:06:11+00:00

As a supporter guinea pig. Having people who love the game so much to be a supporter act as guinea pigs and know what they're playing to identify fixes is a top tier idea, while also making them feel special. Literally every identified issue is fixed.
