Beautiful new TEST armor

[wmk]

Pembroke RSI Sunburst suit with huge backpack!
Heavy armor, 40% damage protection, temperature rating -75 / 225 °C.

Available in subscriber's store, coming in SC Alpha 3.15.

Designed to extend the limits of Human endurance, the Pembroke can withstand the extreme heat of inhospitable high-temperature environments. Based off of Caldera’s best-in-class exploration armor platform, an advanced sensor suite intelligently adjusts to environmental conditions so the wearer’s body temperature remains stable.

Im not sure how I'll squeeze into my Aurora pilot seat without breaking a bone or dying, but I'll try it anyway!

 

[Vavrik]

[GPcustoms]

Im going to change my avatar to something chunky and rock that armor

 

[Montoya]

Just asking. . .aside from the fact everyone has a favorite costume or armor, is there anyone here who knows what the difference is between the view available between heavy and medium armor?

I know I sound odd, but just asking--there is a difference between the situational awareness afforded a player using heavy helmet and medium helmet. What is the difference? What can you not see when wearing heavy helmet as compared to medium helmet?

I haven't noticed a huge difference in what you can see, outside of the left hand side of the Mobiglas (obscured with heavy armor) . But if you wear medium armor, you can move faster and still get good protection from a medium helmet. If you can mix and match, medium armor with a heavy chest, you seem to maximize the benefits of both. I haven't tried that in 3.15 yet.

Cool! And 'chonky' is a good description of it.

Movement is a function of complete weight. Protection is a function of armor class, except the helmet. All helmets weigh 2 kg. See the lower right:

I like all 3 of them for their different levels of TESTification, so I picked each of them up. Now I'll have 1 for Yellow team, 1 for Black team & 1 for the White / neutral team that helps those downed recover equally like the Red cross.

 

[DirectorGunner]

Oh it's gorgeous!

 

[CosmicTrader]

I also like number 3 - Black with Gold trim.

 

[Doggen]

Is that that guy from Full Metal Alchemist?

 

[BUTUZ]

Wohoo chubby yellow!

Pembroke RSI Edition helmet doesn't obscure mobiGlass at all -- probably thanks to those blue eyes ; )

The new Pembroke base variant (orange) still has a visor which improves immersion, but it has some limitations -- you can't see left and ride sides of the mG bar nor anything on the left and right when you look down --

I am not fluffy :( It feels more like... well like... silly putty in a plastic bag to be honest.
