Am I missing something about the securetech armor? They're just better than their normal counterpart for a lower price.

Armor Jacket : 5/3, concealability 6, 900$
Secure Jacket : 5/3. concealability 9, 850$

Lined Coat : 4/2, Conc. 8, 700$
Secure Long coat, conc 10, 650$

They're ALL like this. It made no sense when it appeared in SSC and it's even more idiotic when they appear on top of each other in SR3.

Not that's it's hard to fix, ignore or live with. It just makes no sense! I hate it when things make no sense...

Ya know what? One of these day I'll design a run where the runners are hired by Ares to extract the geniuses working at the marketing department of whichever company produces these inferior product at a superior price and still manages to stay in business!

Next run will be Ares hiring the runners to extract the geniuses working at securetech in the production department who manage to produce these armor at such a low cost while increasing concealability by as much as 50%.

Ares will put these guys to work together and then they will conquer the world.
