Hi Everyone!

I Have looked for this topic all over but couldn´t find it, so forgive me if it has already been covered.
I have played abit with PR 6 last day just for fun and I have suddently relised that with PR 7 we´ve lost the blood effect when you hit an enemy...

WHY?

Thanks
Fab

I noticed the disappearance of blood as well, we're getting vanilla dust!

Maybe it's for a T rating? *waits for theory to be shot down*

Yep! I have never seen reality going backwards...

If someone is old enough to knife/shoot/blow up to bits ppl I think is old enough to see a couple of drops of blood...

jus my opinion anyway.

by the way, the blood puff makes it much easier to distinguish a hit by a miss, it gives a far better feedback than the actual way, now feels a bit like target prcatice...

Wasn't realistic. That's my guess.

You mean a puff of dust is more realistic?

I heard it was removed because the german government didn't allow it in germany. So they decide to remove it from the game

Much like the Mortal Kombat and FarCry controversy. Didn't think of that.

Wouldnt make sense as this is not a full game but a mod...I doubt their law can affect mods as they are downloadable content

Yeah I'm missing the blood, too!

Finally it's not really mature-like when there's some blood! At least you could seperate miss shots and hits! And when you actually hit somebody you felt lucky about that.. xD not that you love seeing dieing people, blood and shit like this, but this is reality isn't it?? That was really cool... I miss it!

Just snap some "This mod contains excessive gore and therefore should be played only by players of 18 years and older" bullshit.

Whoever likes that will download it anyway...

I think the blood or puff is a false indication of a hit and should be removed.

They could always go down the carmagedon rout and make every ones blood green

your alowed to shoot zombies with a lower rateing... btw... green blood bits a joke.

No hes right you can do a mod about just about anything, with no offical rating because its optional to download. You could make a game like postal for a MOD, the only thing thats stopping people DLing it is their ethics.

Otherwise, PR is free to add any gore they want, it wont effect the rateing of BF2. I think youl probably find the reason they did remove it is that its probably not realistic to have puffs of red, wont this only happen if the rounds go straight through and out the other side... I dunno ive never shot anyone, hopefully never will.

But that would only happen if the bullet hits a non fleshy bit, or is armour piercing.

HI again!

Thanks for all your interesting posts!

I see the point of blood puff not being relistic if bullet hits body armour, I can live with that, I probably just miss the rewarding effect in a good hit

Thanks for sharing your opinions
Cheers

You guess correctly.

I doubt the german government would care about a little mod, or even about the blood. Some games are even lower rated in germany, it depends on the violence more than about the blood color i think. Other bloody games have a 16+ rating too.

Realism... mhm... and you cant have different effects for body armour and arm/leg/head hits?

Well can the German government also get rid of all these piss ant idiot kids that have decided to play PR because they are ruining the majority of peoples gameplay. I was team killed for my kit 3 times yesterday!

If one gets shot on his body armor you schouldnt see blood.... but on an arm or leg... you should, in particular the head

so I miss it....

german goverment doesn't care about mods, that is sure (and i am german)
but the point is simply, that the most blood is absorbed by the clothing and not flying into the air
