thats basically all forms of military gear , when i was working with the material it was basically the norm to just half ass the construction. luckily i was working with an older guy who took it serious.
>The prototype's better than the mass-produced shit.
well, only with a very loose translation of prototype
the gundam is closer to a testbed model, which is used to test feasibility of new technology
unlike the gundam, testbeds are usually terrible outside the one feature intended to be tested
think the MBT-70 which was crammed full of new technology like a missile-launching gun, rotating driver station, hydro-pneumatic suspension, and roof-mounted autocannon
which definitely made it extremely technologically advanced but also meant it broke down every 2 seconds, gave the driver nausea, and required a masters in engineering to be able to drive
a prototype is usually worse than the production model, because its still waiting for feedback on improvements to add
they tend to be very close to the main production model, because they intend to use the same tools used on the prototype on the actual mode
the XM-1 is practically identical to the M1 abrams in appearance and overall functionality, but has flaws not present on the M1, like a big vulnerable thermal camera instead of the smaller, more protected one
Armored plates. Exoskeleton for extra strength. Some cutting edge weave for areas that need more flexibility. Super gel in between armor and weave that hardens on impact. Gauntlets and Boots are just standard armored affair, but probably tougher than the last suit. Actual blades on the gauntlets.
Pattinson Batsuit went too far into the territory of sucking the tension out.
Arkham actually did it well >the armor WILL protect you from the initial gunfire assault if you frick up, but you need to get out of the way before things turn deadly. You can't just play Robocop and expect to survive
Asylum/City is the best one.
It looks good and the upgrades even have the pseudo-sci bullshit for all you autists to explain why it's durable without looking like a fricking armor.
Batman's defense should come from being unseen and unheard. Batman doesn't need to be bulletproof because he should never walk into gunfire or let himself get stabbed.
modern armor is not particularly heavy or encumering, so thats a false dichotomy
even a 1950s era flak jacket made of literally nylon and fiberglass weighted only a few pounds and stopped pistol rounds
and being a squishy human with no special powers but a lot of money, it is perfectly reasonable for batman to invest in protection as insurance against getting shot or stabbed even if he plans on dodging most shots, you want protection on every layer of the survivability onion
especially since every comic ends with at least one brawl of shootout, you would start to wonder why he doesnt at least don a concealed level IIIa vest molded to look like his abs
I'd rather an Incredibles style super fabric. I like being able to see Batman's actual physique through the material and not just a molded imitation. It is the same reason I could never enjoy Spider-Armor very much and why 1978 is the best live action Superman costume.
Who's the original sinner of the invincible Batsuit?
It's not Pattinson, because the shitty CW Batwoman series already had its Batsuit made out to be almost indestructible, so I assume there were precedents before because I doubt CW came up with it on their own.
probably batman 1989, which popularized the use of a rigid batsuit with significant bulk while also having characters in-universe mention he is wearing some kind of body armor
its actual invincibility varies from scene to scene, he deflects a bullet at point blank range with his gauntlet in one scene without even flinching
but in another a magnum revolver round knocks the wind out of him and he is momentarily stunned
To me it seems like the Arkham games were the tipping point and now everyone is kind of okay with Batman being a walking tank instead of a sleek ninja.
Is he, though?
The suits look armored, but the stealth sections are stealth for a very good reason. As in, you can't just fight buttholes with machineguns directly, certainly not doing le spooky menacing walk as you're getting shot with enough bullets to vaporize someone and only ending up with few bruises like Pattinson did.
that's literally a rubber wetsuit with some fake muscles dumbass
if its military grade rubber a knife or small caliber gun wont do anything
Bullshit.
ive worked with it at one of my old jobs, its stupidly hard to actually penetrate it with a knife. a fricking stanley blade barely scratches it.
>its stupidly hard to actually penetrate it with a knife
And it's heavy as all frick
oh im not denying that, but its still stupidly durable.
BIG SISTER BATGIRL HELP ME I'M STUCK
I'll pull you out legs first
Can I produce it at home? I want to make a hardy bodysuit in the hopes that I'll make a short film one day.
if you can work for the MOD and find the recipe which is top secret then yeah sure
no idea what its actually called io think its like plyosthemier.
I guess I'll have to get a diver's suit and glue pads on it like I originally planned.
just fit a series of progressively smaller wetsuits into a larger wetsuit and then you know
>Matryoshka wetsuit
Sad that civilians think military grade means "uber high tech and expensive" when in reality it means "cheap piece of shit that barely works".

I guess Gundam does get something right. The prototype's better than the mass-produced shit.

Arkham Batman has the best batsuit.
nah, the Knight armor is the best armor
Sad
I honestly preferred the suit he wore before armoring up.
That's iron man bullshit
Frick off
NTA but that's definitely not Iron Man, dummy
>ironman invented military stealth armor
I don't know armor too well. But is he just covered in random shit?
Armored plates. Exoskeleton for extra strength. Some cutting edge weave for areas that need more flexibility. Super gel in between armor and weave that hardens on impact. Gauntlets and Boots are just standard armored affair, but probably tougher than the last suit. Actual blades on the gauntlets.
Has it really been so long that people are saying this garbage is good? Absolutely embarrassing.
But he can't turn his head. You could plague him forever if you were quick enough like some kind of laughing man.
My problem isn't that Batman's suit is too armored, but too cluttered with ugly, pointless details meant to make it look like armor.
is batman ok with cops shooting villains?
When he's not written like a moron, yes
Why wouldn't he be? He understands the (non corrupt ones) have the law on their side, aren't super ninjas, and have to level the field somehow.
only in self defense
Looks like shit.
Where are the nipples?
Batman should be able to survive knives and small arms. Dark Knight is perfect, Robert Pattenson is too armored.
Dark knight is an ugly clusterfrick
I mean in terms of bulletproofness
Pattinson Batsuit went too far into the territory of sucking the tension out.

>the armor WILL protect you from the initial gunfire assault if you frick up, but you need to get out of the way before things turn deadly. You can't just play Robocop and expect to survive
Lewis Wilson batsuit or GTFO
hey Cinemaphile guess what?
What?
Chicken butt
Guess why
Asylum/City is the best one.

My only issue is his FAS face and eyes
Wtf were they thinking
I at least wish Detective Mode glowing eyes could stay outside of DM. IMO, it's a serious improvement.
