Subject: If you could give armor pieces a function...

If you could have different pieces of armor perform different in-game functions what would you have it do?

Example:

Quantum Gloves - Eliminates the delay between switching weapons. Weapons switch by teleporting into your hand instantly upon pressing Y. You look like you are switching weapons in Grand Theft Auto.

The idea is to take a part of the body and describe what wearing a certain piece of armor there would do.

Inclement weather does have one. Its called No life. It takes away your life.

A baseball bat would be concealed in your back for interrogating grunts.

It also makes you visible in spots where you wouldn't be visible had you not chosen such a horrible armour effect.

Right security shoulder; Use the knife as a weapon.

General/Field Marshall armor; Over shields.

Welcome to the internet. Joy dies here.

Anything with grenades on it - grenades detonate when shot.

Shotgun shell wrist attachment - shells discharge when shot.

Gungnir helmet - blacks out entire screen except tiny circle in the corner. (Yeah, I know it's a camera, but this is funnier)

EVA helmet - fish-eye lens effect.

Seeing how reach has been out over a year you would of had to played for about 5 minutes everyday to have gotten 2 million cR by now. 5 min a day is no life?

Oh yeah, since somebody does not believe what YOU believe; that makes us vapid...
I cannot grasp that what you call "Something happened to nothing, and that nothing became something, and it was smaller than than a period."

Gungnir makes you less prone to death and the sniper shoulder pads give you more ammo.

Can I have a pursuit warthog? (red&blue flashing lights, siren, black and white paint job, gull-wing doors, no turret but a truckbed cap where the turret assembly should be, and the ability to arrest players :)

A police falcon would be great as well... (Black&white paint job, flashing red & blue lights on the wing struts and tail, no turrets and doors that open and close similar to the republic gunships in Star Wars. Kick... Ass.)

Police pelican would be cool too!!!

GENIUS!!!
MP helmet: handcuff someone and leave them running around with no weapons instead of assassinating.

Tacpad: able to see positions of anyone on the map as long as there is no roof above their head.

Nuclear-powered crotch pads: 4x overshields in the place where it counts.

gungnir increases bloom (lack of vision)

security shoulders make stick out more (which they do very nicely)

mark V/IV makes you take less damage to the body considering they are master chiefs helmet why the blam not

noob helmet looks horrible but why dont we make it give less fall damage so more people use it
