    i have recently discovered this thing on mc-war...
    armor is pretty much not worth it (my opinion)
    i have been playing mc-war for almost 1 year now and one thing i have realised is that armor does not do much at all, in fact i have noticed almost NO difference with armor. this even is true for superarmor.
    i have especially had this with inf wich is really annoying... ffor example:
    no armor: 1 shot by ray
    no armor: 1 shot by ray as well.
    this is fairly annoying but superarmor is even more frustrating.
    zombie with normal armor: 1 shot with ray
    zombie with superarmor: about 1 heart left.
    superarmor might look powerful but think about this for a second...
    in infect.. what is the thing that happens most of the time? people use ray... and i don't mean 1 or 2 rays...
    i mean 10+ rays in almost every inf. using armor is pretty much a waste of credits..
    how it should be buffed:
    1.make it less expensive. superarmor for 550 credits for one match is pretty expensive,
    2.give it more defense... it really does not give more defense at all as i said before.

    this will make it more fair... the buff should not be so insane because many of you probably will agree about the fact that it still is pretty good... but for infect it just frustrates me... that something named superarmor...
    just allow for 1 less heart of damage.

    Some thoughts:
    1. The title is 100% inaccurate with the idea (Now fixed)
    2. You can survive certain cbow shots with armor.
    3. Are you complaining that S-Armor is expensive? I haven't used S-armor for serious gameplay. I only use armor like twice. Just don't use it. I'd only use it when I buy molotovs, and use flamethrower + deagle on a small map.
    4. I've nuked all 93 times without one piece of iron or diamond armor on me.
    5. Possibly suggest an example on how to buff the armor?
    6. I don't understand why... Honestly if you are a zombie and you can't get kills without armor chances are you probably won't with armor either.
    7. I find armor a sign that says either : "I'm tryhard!" and "Target me!" or "I will troll you!"
    I'll add more later.

    The Ray Gun penetrates armor. All I need to say.
    Other than that, armor is fine. It's not easy to kill someone with iron or diamond armor to protect them...

    Complaining about something that is rarely ever used, you don't have to use, and in the grand scheme isn't that much.
    No, it doesn't need a buff, it's fine as it is, zombies are supposed to be weak, and you're not supposed to survive a hit in infect because of super armor, that's bull.

    Armor is meant to mainly protect you from Iso shots. It doesn't need a buff when the chestplate piece protects the largest part of your body. Same thing goes with superarmor. It can actually protect you from a whole lot. I heard from Brawler before that you can survive both a Ray-gun and Iso shot at the same time if you're wearing superarmor.

    You can survive 5 iso shots at the same time. With armor, of course.

    In minecraft, when an entity is damaged, It becomes red for a second. At that certain time, If it is attacked, it will take no damage, nor any knockback. Sometimes, it can look like anti KB If you time it JUST RIGHT.

    I didn't mean that literal. I meant that you can survive an Iso and Ray shot after being hit consecutively by one of those guns, than being hit by the next gun.

    Unfortunately in infect, a ray gun shot will penetrate super armor and kill in 1 hit. Sorry if I didn't make that unclear. Also, the Isolator brings the player's health down to about 5 hearts.

    If the price was lowered, more people would get super armor, and every CTF/TDM, it'd be crazy. (It already is on server 1)

    If you agree, why did you rate "Neutral."
    On the on-topic side, when I'm in iron armor, I still get 1-shot-killed by Iso's. It can deserve a buffing to a certain point.

    When using armor, you're still vulnerable to a headshot. Even the Barrett and L118A can kill someone in super armor with a headshot.
    However, when the shot hits anywhere else, you take ~7 hearts
