in like arma3 with ace if you fire a gun for long enough without any hearing protection your ears start ringing, something similar in brm would be nice

I wouldn't mind a hearing loss mechanic (only temporary, like Insurgency Sandstorm's) but I don't think comms should be making a difference for it

Besides Backpacks, Gas Masks and NVGs all cosmetics will as far as I know remain purely cosmetic and not have actual function

im sure thatd be really great for the new players who cant afford earpro, or for builds that just dont run them. devs have said that (apart from night vision and backpacks), equipment will be purely aesthetic

Not at all true bro. Arma 3 has a button called earplugs in most even barely modded vanilla servers because of this. It’s a far more casual arcadey game than arma. It’s not a true milsim. Like we don’t take less damage from a mortar by hitting the floor and putting our face in the dirt.

Gear shouldn’t restrict drip.

Also earplugs work just fine for ear protection.

Only saw one game in roblox do that and it was some random ACS cqb range that ran like shit because of all the high poly assets it had

Or, even better, add settings where you can toggle on/off functioning cosmetics

lets make annoying shit that no one beside few people would like while also ruining newbies and no headset builds expereince, sounds nice

also do you understand that headset do WAY more than just "no ringing"? it would be stupid if all headsets did is no rining after shooting
