Alright, i weren't really hoping for that to work out anyways. But could you go into a bit more detail on the equipment? How tough is the armor (and do we actualy wear it, does it differ throughout the calsses, and how do weapons classify? For example, can i arm an assault rifle loaded with HE bullets, and would it be a heavy weapon, or an assault?

When it comes to these things, I admit I wanted to copy paste from XCOM: Enemy Unknown and adapt as I go along. The conventional armor is good against mainly conventional weapons plus is part of the uniform standard for now. We will research more weapons and armor as we progress through the chapters and acts. For weapons, an assault rifle still is an assault rifle plus we don't have HE rounds. We have not deployed them yet and that is an upgrade exclusive to Heavies with machine guns As I said before, the game and story are integrated. If it isn't available now, it may be available later.

EDIT: As long as it does not break either game or story, it's fine. After all, I do want some amount of fairness and reality.
