Bah, you lesser servants know not of witch you speak. The Dreadnought armor of the grey knights is far superior.dalek sec said:Silence xeno! We will have none of your "Greater Good" lies here tonight!Xpwn3ntial said:

Edit= beaten to it. Damn.
What I'd like to say is the Mark 2 Hardsuits from Bubblegum Crisis (the original, not the remake, which was okay, but not nearly as good as the original).Vesaldius said:
However, since maybe 1% of you know what I'm talking about, I'm gonna go with...
Mass Effect 1, Colossus Armor. I kitted out my main party in that, and it was insanely sexy looking. When I walked around the Citadel, people knew I was awesome because not only did I have amazing armor, but so did everyone with me - in matching colors and style.
Also because the Colossus Armor from Mass Effect looks suspiciously like the Hardsuits from Bubblegum Crisis. Of course, so does most of the armor in that game. Which is probably why I loved the armor in that game.

, those guys are indeed retardedly resiliant XDwhat did you say? anti tank grenade to the face? bhah! just get me back up out of this crater here and we'l see about that!
In real-life, they're experimenting on the concept of a new type of Dragon Skin Armor. It's essentially plated, and still chainmial formula, but (don't quote me, but IIRC) it has a layer of thick play-dough like material which condenses and hardens whenever it's shot in one place. It's pretty nifty, because the designs, although preliminary, looked like something of the Karskin from Warhammer (except more 'shelled').
They showed a video of a downscaled version, in which the guys was wearing a standard cotton hat with this material. Shot it a couple of times, and while you could see the bullets stuck or leaving huge dents, it protected the watermelon from a fall on the rocks and several round of 9mm. Again, this material was just being used under a cotton hat.
I have no idea what its called, nor as to why I can't find any bloody resources on the net, but I recall watching a small documentary about it. They also showed the potential of a fiber-optic based suit that could refract light a la MGS, although no prototype, the claimed it could be atleast be used in the future for snipers.
So yeah, RL is pretty cool I would say...
