No blood is just ridiculous. It's okay to crack someones neck, but seeing a drop of blood makes people go wee-woo.

Typical american bullshit. The same with "let's blow people to pieces but a pair of boobs makes the world go under."

Excuse? I'm American and am not as "typical" as you so boldly felt the need to state. Blood doesn't make people go this "wee-woo" you speak of either. Sure, you have the exceptional tight ass who can't stand it, but you've made an extreme stereotype that doesn't exist. Hence the "rating" system that was established.

I don't just bust out in a forum and say that Europeans are complete assholes when I'm playing games, when thats just not the truth. Not all Europeans are as ignorant as some of the fools that play CT. Being quick to judge makes you look foolish. Good start though, Denny.

Yeah, either way both sides know that the bullet hit (if it did), so i don't see any sense in changing this.
yeah there's already a hit indicator so i can't see a need for this. maybe as a replacement, but this would have serious influence on gameplay.

Overstatement

Why that in response to my idea? My idea was obviously for artistic reasons only. If the spy runs away and doesn't die, how could you go up to his body to see the bullet holes? If a spy does die, I don't think you'd be asking if you'd hit him or not. It's not a replacement in any way.

Wtf?  Wow, you are an idiot my friend.  A drop of blood makes people go "wee-woo"?  What, like the 1% of the world that is squeamish to a drop of blood?  American bullshit?  Way to go.  You just lost faith in half of the board and made everyone here think you are a fucking retard.

He's on the production team?  Are you serious?

Well, you may notice that in CT, the characters goes into a set animation, not ragdoll - and we have no idea what you devs are going to make it like, so we can't know if you've already decided/planned/made something.

One more time.... This is not CT!!! Keep that in mind pretty please :)
We can only assume that this particular part will be like CT for the sake of discussion, since we have heard nothing from the team.

Wow, if we knew you were so ignorant, we might have not placed you on the production team. Keep foolish, arrogant things like this bottled up in your mind please.

Consider this a warning.

Thankyou Zed.

If people are soo squeamish to blood like you insist they are, why do millions of people insist on playing gory games like GoW, Manhunt, or even Bioshock?  Why do millions of people like surgeons or crime scene investigators not quit their job if a drop of blood makes them flip?

This is a game that could be a little more bloody.  Let's not make this halo with a happy fun time shooting pink needles and jumping around with blue explosions going on in the background.  I say we should make it a little darker.  Not like silent hill dark, but just a little more serious and creepy.

i want to have nightmares from the images of getting a headshot.
Didn't we have some fun though?

Remember the time the platform was sliding into the fire pit and I said, "good bye!" and you were like, "No Way!" and then i was all, "we pretended we were going to murder you."

That was Great.

I think a little blood would be a nice touch, nothing over the top and not for pure gore, but to add a little touch of realism. It would provide a good indicator for when a shot lands instead of going with something like the red reticle in the other SAMs.

Why are you raiding him ? Does ha have no right to state his opinion ? This is weird...

There is no reason to get angry because he used the word: "american" in bad context. Most of known movies are made there and this country gives standards for films and games. You cant deny that the fact that game gets M or Adult rate only because you can see a boob there isn't ok ?

I second that.

He's just stating his opinion. Yes, he used the word American in the wrong context (because you guys can't help it there is that - perhaps damned - rating-system), but that's no reason to flame him.

Why do you guys blow up only 2 lines soo much? PSVille has the right of free speech you know (  ::) )!

Back on topic, seeing a pink cloud puff out from a spy's head when you headshot him would be a nice touch.

Denny

If it's going to be this sensitive just because I threw out some generalisation, feel free to remove me from the team. You guys accept that people call eachothers idiots both on the public and team areas and bitch like nothing else. But when I throw a generalized comment, you all can't distinguish it from generalisation and objectivity. Just because I said american bullshit doesn't mean I meant any of you specifically.

I'm going to stand my point regarding the american bullshit and feel free to ban me and whatever. If you can't take something like this on the net, I feel sorry for you.

But as you all have pointed out, maybe it's best that I resign and so I shall. I'll be nice enough to leave what I've done so far on the server, but unless people stop being so damn uptight and elitist here I won't stay. Because obviously it's better to throw shit in eachothers faces than making a generalized comment not aimed at anyone in specific.

And yeah, I'm sorry and I know it wasn't the best thing to say. But I still feel you're way too sensitive about the subject.
