Man I hate those helmets.I would assume the textures affect performance, but since all they're doing is making the game look like it was released a couple of years ago it probably won't make much of a difference.
I'm only using that helm because it's the best one i've managed to scrounge off enemies so far. Didn't realise some helmets screw with aiming, i'll have to check this out.
Haha no i meant like the wings are so big it blocks your field of view. Nothing to do with stats or anything just personal preference.
