A short note on dying

[Pella]

I hope they change that death animation in PS2. They are not needed and are just annoying.

Death shoud perhaps be like PS1. With a resurrection timer and respawn button prompted upon death. With added WTF killed you ect.

I would like to come here and say that APB:R has the worst death/spawn from any game so far. With TTKs in 1 second or less for almost all weapons, getting killed means a 8 second spawn with a boring grey screen. Spawn locations are terrible, far from objective and very prone to spawn camping. By far the worst Ive ever seen in any game. It keeps you out the action for so long that you do want to throw your mouse at the screen.

Death real has no penalty other than mabey some resource lost on grenades/vheicles and a longer walk to the battlefield.

Now if they had some streak bonuses or rare no spawn items that was worth staying alive for then it is a good idea.

I know that at times when I was looting ES weapons or had the health mod benifit of 120 death had a bigger effect than simply zerging from AMS/Spawn room to Tower/Base. I remeber binding at a hom cont for the 120HP HART or IA into a battle zone and If I couldnt get a rez to perserve it I would spawn at the bind, but when death became more frequent and I regenerating to 120 took too long I quit the idea.

i never got that "bloody screen so real" anyways - i bet if you ask soldiers who got shot in a combat situation, that they just noticed it. Ifact there are frequent reports of people who hardly notice they got shot because in a situation like that your so pumped full of adrenaline and endomorphine that even after getting hit and on the verge of bleeding to death your still focused like a shark aiming for a surfboarder untill it eventualy gets black and thats it. But the body can be very resilient to pain and injury unless your a whimsy little punk.
