FINISH OFF CRITICALLY WOUNDED

[Viper.Sw]

I completely missed that this was a resuggestion.
I searched on the wrong tags.

I found the suggestion was hardcoded.

I apologise for the inconvenience.

Thanks to the comments for letting me know that fast.

P.S. will not happen again.





I have a really great suggestion!

You know when you are critically wounded and then some explosion hits you and you become DEAD instead of wounded.

Add that effect to the KNIFE so that you can finish off enemies you shoot!!!

This way is good in lots of ways!

1. You DO NOT have to guard the enemy you shot, you can finish him off with the knife...

2. This will not change gameplay/teamwork at all since medics can still revive, but you can stop the enemy you shoot of being revived if it is safe to go up to him so that you can end his life (and get your kill).

3. Because you have to run up to the enemy, if you are smart you will not do this until the area is secured. Securing the area will need teamwork and coordination by your squad/team so that you not get shot on the advance.

4. If your team/squad think you have the area under controll, and rather want to go into good positions straight away or attack, you can just leave the wounded enemies. If the team is pushing forward in a fast pace, there will be no point to finish off the wounded enemies since they will be far back in your own teams controlled area.

If this is possible to add I recommend some DEVs to look into this and maybe if you can it would be great to have to the new patch, to compensate the 5 min wounded state. In case that this is not possible, maybe some DEV can just lock/delete the thread.

Thanks!

This is a resuggestion.

Look forward the patch, some things will have changed there

I loosely quote the devs

"this is not an aspect of gameplay we want to see"

now, u can put some effort in and look for the post saying that.

I have a really great suggestion!

I have a better one: Scroll up to the red "Already Suggested Suggestions" thread stickied directly above this one, use your web-browser's "find text" function (Ctrl+F in Firefox), and type in "wounded". Click the "next" button on the text search feature once.

It is possible and your suggestion differs from many resuggestions of FINISHING OFF CRITICALLY WOUNDED but most people had a problem with ROE's and issues with real life treaties and moral arguments for killing critically wounded combetants.

I guess this would symbolise restraining or taking enemy soldiers captive (ala restrainers for insurgency) rather than actually stabbing a wounded guy on the ground.

Where I would still like to be able to shoot downed guys (frowned upon in many discussions), not being able to shoot them makes this suggestion much less contravertial than the other FINISHING OFF CRITICALLY WOUNDED threads.

First of all, doing this would be practical murder. Would you walk up to some poor, injured, combat ineffective soldier and kill him with your combat knife in real life? Have you had like a GTA overload or something? The fact that this could even be considered is ridiculous, not to mention sickening that people would want this in game. Soldiers are people, not mindless killing machines with no feelings whatsoever.

if something like this gos ingame i will honestly be disgusted, reason being is that its completly wrong and immoral to kill someone like that (His an unarmed combatant!). This is one thing i hope never makes in ingame. If you drop someone with you rifle they are then non combatants as they are no longer a threat (I know I know "but then they get revived". well shoot them again it only takes one single shot to KILL not wound a player within 1 min of being revived.)

DEVs please dont use this, i honestly can say that i would be put off playing, this is a game of reality not random ***'s going around and in a sense "Murdering" a non combatant!

That is all

Locked for resuggestion.
