#'''Keep''' - Flak jackets aren't very important as they only protect from PKers.

#'''Keep''' - One of the better suggestions I've seen in a loooooong time. Also, Deathnut, remember, that zombies still have it harder than fuck. Today, I managed to break down an EHB 'cade.

#'''Keep/Change''' - One of the better ideas I've seen. But make it so survivors can only have 1 in the inventory at a time, or else that would make it so that survivors couldn't be killed. Also, maybe a time limit should be added, just so survivors wouldn't have it on ALL the time. --{{User:Omega360/Sig}} 02:46, 6 November 2008 (UTC)

#'''Keep''' - Its dupey but I think its good. And screw these 'lower level zombies' everyones trying to protect.

#'''Keep''' - I like this idea, logically its what flak jackets do, they deteriorate the only difference is, is that in real life they deteriorate a heck of a lot faster than that. I'd add a side suggestion to this that flak jackets should only automatically protect people from getting shot and for melee/bite attacks they should only help a certain percentage of the time. My reasoning for this is that when people shoot a gun they am for body, where as a melee attack usually comes from all directions. This added suggestion would get rid of a lot of the kill votes as most of them are voting kill because it helps PKers. [[User:Wounded Coyote]] 2:39, 16 November 2008 (UTC)

20081105 Flak Jacket Update

Kamikazie-Bunny 23:54, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

Suggestion type
Improvement

Suggestion scope
Those who wear flak jackets.

Suggestion description
As a response to the new Flesh Rot update I'm suggesting an update to the Flak Jacket...

  • Flak Jackets now have the equivalent of 100HP.
  • The damage they reduce is now subtracted from their 'health' (i.e. shotgun=2, pistol=1).
  • A player wearing a flack jacket cannot see its health, however if it has 50HP or less it has the prefix "a damaged" and if it has 25 or below it has the prefix "a badly damaged".
  • When a Flak jacket has 0Hp or below it is automatically discarded with the flavour text "your flak jacket is ruined and falls apart".


The health of a flak jacket will degrade even if you get shot as a zombie with flesh rot (normally armour is worn over the skin!).

Keep Votes

  1. - Keep - How it should be! - Kamikazie-Bunny 23:57, 5 November 2008 (UTC)
  2. Keep/Change - You need to specify how flak jackets are put on once the current one is destroyed, if an additional one is in the inventory. -- Galaxy125 01:06, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
  3. Keep - Flak jackets aren't very important as they only protect from PKers. Making them wear out isn't going to be a big change, while making a whole lot of sense. --Midianian Big Brother Diary Room: [501,06] 01:23, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
  4. KeepI personally think this gives the flak jacket a good set purpose and gives the item more value because of the need to replace it. I like it. (which makes me wish even more that i didn't throw away that flak jacket as a beginner!) -Yungblood 9:30m, November 5, 2008 (EST)
  5. Keep/Change - One of the better ideas I've seen. But make it so survivors can only have 1 in the inventory at a time, or else that would make it so that survivors couldn't be killed. Also, maybe a time limit should be added, just so survivors wouldn't have it on ALL the time. -- Ωmega360 Small septagon.gifT 02:46, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
  6. Keep - I like it.--Studoku W! 03:41, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
  7. Keep - Cool Idea. They shouldn't last for ever and this fixes it. Nice suggestion. Legion8 04:34, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
  8. Keep - As the other voters. Logical and makes sense. Linkthewindow Talk 05:27, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
  9. Keep - Great idea and you really used developing suggestions to perfect it without overdoing it on the complexity, bravo! --xoxo 05:31, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
  10. keep because!--Honestmistake 08:16, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
  11. Keep – With the advent of Flesh Rot, this no longer harms dedicated zombies, and thus gets my vote. Will make PDs more worthwhile for higher-level survivors. ᚱᛁᚹᛖᚾ 10:09, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
  12. Keep - If this had come before Flesh Rot I'd have voted to kill, as said above, zombies should be harder to kill. The only way to toughen them up used to be an 'invincible' flak jacket, the need for this is gone. I think the 100HP for the flak jacket is high enough too, that's 100 pistol shots or 50 shotguns to the chest which is quite an amount - I wish I had a flak jacket like that... --TouchingVirus 10:18, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
  13. Keep - Best. Suggestion. Evar. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 10:20, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
  14. - Keep - Still be rare as hell to lose for the average survivor (I haven't eaten lead in a long while) so why not.--G-Man 12:05, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
  15. Keep - *sigh* Alas, I rather liked having infinite flak jackets. But, yeah. Now that zombies have flesh rot, there's no longer any reason to oppose this very sensible change. --Jen 20:03, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
  16. Keep - Part of me wants to say no, but the PKer in me screams, "Yes!" --William Told 02:00, 9 November 2008 (UTC)
  17. Keep - Its dupey but I think its good. And screw these 'lower level zombies' everyones trying to protect. A zombie without flesh rot isn't a true zombie in my opinion ;) I think since any zombie can get flesh rot, I feel flak jackets should, yes, be modified for more of a human use. DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION (TALK | CONTRIBS) 03:35, 15 November 2008 (UTC)

  19. Keep/Change Love the idea but 100 Hp seems to be TOO much. I'd say make it 50 Hp. Chaplain Drakon Macar 23:04, 17 November 2008 (UTC)
  20. Keep/Undupe Logical, and does not count as a dupe because of the change in circumstances (Flesh Rot) --Explodey 11:46, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
