[QUOTE=tier56;35282925]Jesus fuck, how hell are you supposed to look left and right in all that? Let alone not get massively tired from wearing all that armor and shit?[/QUOTE] It's an EOD suit - basically just used for defusing a bomb, where all that you need is sheer blast resistance and mobility is less of a factor. I believe that they actually have to have cooling systems because they're so bulky and heavy. That's part of the reason that they're so retarded to use, let alone as "armour" like CoD uses them for, as they're blast resistant, not bomb-proof or bullet-proof.

Those suits are bulletproof, they won't protect you from the force of the bullet, but those things are built tough and weigh around 100 pounds. They just aren't feasible in a firefight though, because they are heavy as mentioned, and well, imagine fighting in a desert environment inside one of those things. It's hot enough there when NOT wearing the thick armor.
ITT: Discussing CoD like it's realistic. I think the reason they make him wear an EOD suit just for the "brute" look. No matter what the CoD kiddies say, CoD isn't realistic. It's kinda pointless to talk like it is.

Regardless of whether or not i understood the story, the armor in E.Y.E. Was still pretty sweet. [img]http://media.edge-online.com/files/imagecache/article/articles/reviews/eye_divine_cybermancy.jpg[/img]

[editline]26th March 2012[/editline] Also, too often your armor restricts your ability to sport a sweet moustache. This man gets the best of both worlds.

Does anyone else find that huge power armour suits, like Starcraft and 40k space marines look like they couldn't actually have someone in them? Mostly because of the joints at the hip and legs.

[QUOTE=JohnStamosFan;35305606]Yeah, the 40K ones, i've always loved...but then i think "man...how the fuck does someone fit in that?".[/QUOTE] They're the step between power armour/battle suits and mechs that doesn't make sense.
The space marine armour is a hell of a lot more plausible than the SC armour, tbh. I can't find it, but someone did a load of research and figured that you'd have to have messed up proportions to even fit your arms in a terran suit due to the arms being pushed so far away from the torso - you'd need the shoulders of a bull, even with the arm and feet extensions being controlled from like the wrist of the armour. Of course, the 40k armour is implausible, too, but at least that's got extensive genetic and physical modification being behind it :v:
