Tank Suit vs Military Suit

JanRE · 02-12-2008, 09:40 PM

Hey gamers!
I have just completed Dead Space, a game I didn`t fancy that much in the beginning, but which I fell in love with more and more as I played.

But I wonder what suit is best, Tank or Military? The Military suit costs heavy 99 K, but has got "only" 30 % armor, and the Tank suit has 60?

Is it worth using 99 K for the M. version? One could think that the Tank is best because of armor, but why the big expence for the Military then?

I play the PC version and as far as I know the military suit is the most protective highest ranked suit. You can only get it as an unlockable after beating the game. When using the military suit on the 2nd to highest difficulty level, it did feel more protective than the highest regular suit, though I didn't know it was called the "tank" suit. If you're referring to the one that looks to have brass armor. The only thing I didn't like about the military suit is the white/black color and it's not as detailed in texture like the other suit. It actually looks slightly blurry by comparison like they didn't refine the texture much.

Thanx for the reply! Maybe I just have to check it out, even if it is expensive.

Thanx again!

Alright...

I suppose Your Playing the 360 Version JanRE? Which is Why MrFragManiac wouldn't know what the Tank Suit Is.
When you play on the 360 you get the option to Download DLC's which have various suits and weapon packs.

The Tank suit indeed surpasses the Military with a 60% Dmg Resistance making it superior,If your wanting that Extra Survivability the Tank will provide it.I however prefer the Military over it and Only use my Tank Suit on Impossible.
The reason theirs such a High price for the Military is that its Unlockable,Whereas the Tank is Bourght and downloaded allowing you to get it for Zero credits,If it too was unlockable it would cost a hefty price.
