FPS Vest

Hi Guys.

Anyone heard of this product yet?

http://www.tngames.com/shop....tompmm6

There's a little article in the new "PC Games" magazine about it and the testing person sounds quite satisfied.

I wonder, if it needs special support from every game, though, or if it works with every shooter --> ArmA!

I would like it to have the ability to inject a stimulant that simulates fear of imminent death, also a pain transmitter that is area specific, not to the extent of real life of course, but similar to hard pinch.

I guess that was ironic and you dont like the idea of the FPS Vest.

Or you are just insane ^^

[opteryx 1562]

I was actually serious...

Would ArmA even be able to decide where you've been hit on

a finer granularity than leg, arm, body, head (not that this

would actually work without modification to the game

anyway). They should add an electric shock feature that

gives you a teeth-rattling good zap if you get hit in-game.

Now that'd add some real "fear factor"!

Bah, you dont take me serious, shame on you all.

I will consider purchasing this "gadget", if it works with ArmA.

I had the idea of a mouse that gives you a small shock when you get killed. Like those reaction games you can buy in shops.

I am truly being serious here.

Reason is the same why people jump outta plane with backpack filled with a piece of cloth and string entrusting their life, only difference is that I am too lazy, shit broke and not that stupid to do it. So a good substitute would be to experience the stress of war right here in my living room for a moderate price.

Games just don't give me that special kick anymore, I want something new.

Something new ?

Buy one of those

connect it to comp via RS 232 , link it up to your forward and backward movement and see how far you will come

Gives the term exhausted a new dimension.

shit broke

Lol, that would be great and gives a whole new meaning to "You spend too much time on that computer!" :P

Ooh yeah and then the cheaters will have fun...

Go into bezerk mission, and zap the F out of 40 ppl...

*sees 40 odd ppl sitting behind pc getting electrocuted...

naah

Seriously I think games have to evolve just a bit more for these kind of things. How ever IR tracker is great for Arma allthough I havent yet bought one.

I vote for the treadmil addon! No more sprinting everywhere cuz you can!

Note the lack of a impact area near the crotch. But I think that'd be an even harder sell.

The hit eventhandler detects where you are hit, wouldn't be available for an output unless you use some injection software or maybe even DSTS.

If run over, does it get really tight and squeeze your insides out your ears and nose?

Take up bareknuckle boxing?

[opteryx 1562]

I am too lazy

Hindered by my own apathy

Also it would be preferable if it was withing a PC gaming context, I just want that "WHOA SHIT!" without having to lift my ass outta the chair.

A bit back on topic, has anyone here actually tried this vest thingy?

[jasono 0]

It's not released yet I don't think?

You be surprised.

You'd be surprised how many have a masochistic streak or how many are just crazy enough to do it.

[Kerry 0]

haha, i guess that would be kool.

Maybe if i get crippled or osmthing then ill have enough time to waste another minute on this thing!

If sombody does end up trying that vest, please let me know!

sounds like an

1.excuse to never go outside again.

@ Kerry

As soon as its available in Europe and known, that ir works with ArmA, I'll get it, I guess.

@ Opteryx

Release date for the US and A is October; Europe a little bit later.

I may have the answer for you. I'll bring my fiancee over and you tell her "sure I'll cut the grass and take out the trash in 5 minutes" then as soon as 5 minutes has passed feel the adrenaline flow as you wonder where she is going to attack from and with what??
