Armor Colors
What is the purpose of this red/green/yellow stuff? Is this mentioned in game at any point? Is this a holdover from TFC or some other TF game? I see it as a meaningless point of confusion, especially considering that three of the four colors used as armor designations are also used as team colors. I suggest that all mentions of Green/Yellow/Red armor be replaced with Light/Medium/Heavy or just direct percentage numbers, especially as not all classes use standard values (i.e. the Engy has a 0.5 damage dissipation factor). Anyone have any thoughts on this? --Phisionary 15:32, 28 December 2007 (CST)
