corpses stay

Post by **Hitperson** » 2006-02-06 22:21

I know this is pretty gorry but is there any way to make corpses stay for a long period of time (same 2 hours) like the blown up tank chassies on glory houndz??

It would be cool if it didn't slow down game performance.

would be hard to tell who was dead and who was wounded. in addition to other issues.

I think its fine the way gloryhounds has it. Longer would be nice, but I'm 99 percent sure it would make fps lower, and more bodies isn't worth 2 fps to me. Maybe in a movie or something, but not actual gameplay.

Yea i remember seeing a minimod that made corpses stay around the entire game, and there was significant performance loss.

The problem I had with that mod is the bodies slowly faded, in an erie ghost-type fashion. I did like the aspect of not always knowing who was dead or not. I could hide in the bodies of my fallen comrads and ambush the enemy.

That's disturbing...

Personally, I'de much rather have good performance over tons of dead bodies all over.

Plus there would be a bunch of clones around as there are only seven different character models and your old bodies would still be around so...

Yeah, good point there Happy...So, this could potentially turn a realistic feature into a devastating unrealistic catastrophe.

lol this would be funny becuase i could imagine a new person to PRMM playing as a medic and seeing all those bodies on the floor, he just goes around trying to zap as many people as he can, wondering why its not working

But then you'd get a load of medics frantically trying to revive corpses with no hope of sucess.

Body=revivable. No body=nothing to revive. Long corpse stay=confusion.

EDIT: Bugger, beat me to it.
