I can understand helmets being molded to protect the ears (that's what metal does), but it makes no sense for cloth and leather hats. Who would even bother taking the time to create pockets on something that wouldn't really protect them anyway? It's illogical. Cloth and leather head gear should all just have slots for the ears to stick through.

Armored tails would be cool to bring back*from 1.0, but I guess they were removed due to ps3 limitations.
