"Id approve"

I can't help feeling that a lot of people on here have some sort of personality disorder which makes them think they are something important, you included.

Watching videos very closely, I've actually seen blood spurts where bullets connect to the player. Kind of like what (Infinity Ward) CoD does.

They're easy to miss simply due to angle though, as usually we see a bright muzzle flash when the rounds hit their target after all.

Ikr? So many try shutting things down simply because they don't like it. Instead they deny deny deny instead of building consensus.

Some people need to learn how to argue/debate

On Topic: I really don't believe this game needs a gore pack; I feel like it will complicate things with the other markets' ratings systems. Frankly, over-the-top gore doesn't have a place in this game, and I think it will just be more distracting than anything.

And to all of those who say ratings are useless, this game IS getting rated by the ESRB, so deal with it.

I have no problem with gore as long as its realistic. (For example when hit directly by a tank shell there shouldn't be anything left.) This leads to an interesting story: Back when I played PS1 I suggested in the chat that MAX units should explode into pieces instead of fall over. But then another player brought up a great point. "If MAX unites blew up. How could medics revive them?"

teht hing is, again, gore doesnt have to mean dismemberment and explosions,

it can be bullet holes in the body, it can be blood splatter. golden eye for the n64 had gore in the form of red spots where you shot the guy, it wasnt redic, it wasnt over the top.

we dont need to be talking about the extream on this, but we are human, we should bleed when shot.

yeah i wish the blowing up thing would make since and players will gib but thats not going to work with the current game mechanics (revives). I do agree that gore can be low priority on the list, its a add-on with potential revenue way down the road. Who knows, maybe we can have a scream from someone getting blown up in a vehicle.

I remember playing alien vs predator 2 and playing predator in multiplayer. Everytime i took someones head off with a combistick, i got a very satisfactory roar that only you could hear. If only that game didn't die, but that really made the kills over the top. If planetside could make destroying tanks/aircraft/infantry, feel like that, it'll be BIG TIME.

I'll pay for a good gore package. Damm right. If you have young kids and don't want to expose them to graphic violence, don't buy the package. And I'll assume you already locked out 80% of TV programming, right? Beware the nightly news and 24/7 news channels. Just saying.

Man all these people that are too persuaded by media. Blood and violence in video games does not promote violent tendencies in people. If someone is violent they will be regardless without an outlet.

Take someone else's right away to please yours is basically all I am seeing when someone opposes this. Personally I love Gear of War gore there is few things more satisfying then exploding someones head, or in Turok blowing limbs off.

There are legalities you can counter if you charge a few and have an age requirement. Personally I probably wouldn't buy it if it cost too much, but to push your own agenda on people because you don't like something is pretty selfish.

Man, I didn't know there were so many Clinical Psychologists and International Sales Lawyers on the board.

Because you're not allowed to talk about it without the piece of paper...

Yea. Some people don't understand that nanny states are incompatible with liberty.

There is a reason I like the NC you know(FREEDOM!). If SOE wants to do it they will! If they can make money on it withought hurting the player base, they will! If something else will make them more money, they will do that instead! I really don't see the point in arguing over this. It is futile, and I don't understand the point of this.

For my part, I agree that video game and other media violence does not promote violent tendencies. There is a difference between desensitizing (or acclimating) someone to something and inciting someone to it. But this idea that it doesn't desensitize (or acclimate) people is fantasy.

Anyway, the topic is more complex than it's made out to be most of the time. Desensitizing or acclimating people isn't just limited to video games or imagery either of course; but I'd rather not get too off topic for too long

my original purpose was to see how many people would be interested in getting a "gore pack" however, it has turned into other discussions here and there.
