    In the future, soliders will have massive shoulder armour and forget all we learned about camoflage.

    Isn’t it funny how something that looks perfectly normal and makes sense in the game can look completely rediculous irl.

      While you do have a point, as with things like warhammer 40k i think it’s meant to be the whole “walking tank” sort or idea.. substituting came with being able to walk through a hail of bullets.

      At least the Ghosts aren’t plastered in armour…

      In Space, no one can hear your pedantries.

      When your enemy can see you in the minimap, camoflage is pointless, its either all in (e.g. invis) or nothing. Might as well opt for armour.
