I've seen some screenshots of Mike wearing a combat helmet in the game, the one that shows up on the Engineer specialisation pic when you're choosing your focus after Saudi.

 

Is it actually possible to get this thing? I see a headwrap or a Russian cap appear sometimes depending on what country I'm in, but never the helmet

 

Or do I have to be an engineer?

Never seen helmet equipment, and there's no slot for it in the inventory anyway. Just various hats in the customisation window, but I don't know if any are similar to what you describe.

Would be nice to have helmets.. to protect from getting shot in the head you know..

Not in Unreal Engine games! Just ask Carmine.

Just put Mike in a head wrap with the lumberjack and some cool shades. It really seems to stop bullets now and again. jk lol

It could be the name instead of the helmet, because al carmine's die in the GoW games

Frankly, I do.

On my recent Thorton, I have the habit of using rather silly disguises every time I appear in a place where agents can be found

I meant as a hat out of the customisation window. I was sure I saw a screenshot of it, although I can't find it now, so maybe I was just dreaming

 

Although, the picture of the engineer in the specialization selection screen is certainly wearing one, so maybe I'm not a complete basket case yet

Has anyone commented about how you change outfits? I was wondering if Obsidian put that in the game.

Yeah. Sukov comments on your different outfits when you meet for him to get information after the embassy. If your wearing a stealth suit he says something about not being seen, if your wearing a tech suit he comments on the amount of stuff you can carry. If you wear civilian clothing I forget what he says, but Mike remarks about having to upgrade cause things are getting heavier (lol). Not sure what he says about the Assault suit, probably something about how your a one man A-team or something.

 

Omen Deng does this too. If your in full battle gear when your at the subway station he remarks how you stand out like a sore thumb. However, if your wearing civilian clothing (not sure if the taipei hat is necessary) he comments on your good spycraft in blending in with civilians.. which makes complete sense cause why would Mike be hanging out in the open waiting around like an idiot in full gear? :| Woulda made more sense if you seen Mike put his bag of gear in the place where Omen Deng just happened to lock you in (So Mike could remark about good concidences or something).

He says ~"Bonus points for trying to blend in, but try to blend with the people, not your surroundings."
