I wonder if this would help to give us a little more useful feedback in LFS?

(look down the page past the helmet - which might be fun, but not as useful?)

here's some blurb:

Quote :
The company has also launched a GFR vest that sends the physical impact and sensations of G-force effects directly to player's bodies.
Working in a very similar manner to the 3rd Space FPS vest, this is designed to convey G-force effects through the use of six large force cells strategically placed inside the vest simulating acceleration, deceleration and centrifugal effects....

....

The vest incorporates two cells in the chest (right and left), two in the back and side cells positioned along the vest's compression straps. The chest cells expand when and a force is applied directly to the front of the user.
Faster acceleration causes more rapid and increased cell inflation and a greater applied force to the player.
For braking, the back cells inflate, which applies a force directly to the user's back and simulates deceleration. With the side cells, the 3rd Space GFR Vest is able to reproduce the sideways effects of the body's natural motion in a turning vehicle.

sorry if this has been posted already, although I've not seen it

cheers

Nice! Creative touch. Although I can't imagine they'd be very good at conveying long-duration acceleration/decelleration, as the vest can't expand indefinitely.. more suitable for crashes and sudden moves, I'd suspect.
Try this if you want realistic G-Forces
Why does that sound more like "pain" than forces. Imagine using BF1 and wiping out after the Blackwood straight @ 300km/h. OUCH.

Surely applying force to someone's back would simulate acceleration, not deceleration!? Assuming the reviewer made the error, not the suit manufacturers.
