Make the guys bigger, beefier, not there suits.
Please do not flame this relpy, I am just making an observation. What do you think?

My guess is cause they look cooler? LOL. Who wants to be some lilly little skinny guy when you can be this big bad ass mother fucker? They have a very "Space Marine" look to them, just without the helmets that the Space Marines sport.
The look of these characters was one major thing that drew my attention to this game. Don't know why, I just REALLY like how it looks.
Theoreticly though, you'd assume it's there to help stop bullets. It takes like 20 bullets to drop these guys. They're armored out like those guys who held up that bank in LA, and walked out shooting. Sure you can say "with that technology, blah blah", but this doesn't seem to be that far in the future. And why couldn't there be technology advances in bullets as well maybe? Requiring better bullet proof armor? I mean, it's not like people can really dodge bullets, so no matter how light your armor was, you're not going to dodge a bullet, lol. So what's the better answer? Take the bullet, and keep moving :) Brute strength! Force your way through!
