Ok, perhaps kind of juvenile.. But I miss blood in the game! Much more visceral than just the crosshair "X" appearing when you score a hit..

Heck, why not the full soldier of fortune route where limbs can be blown off etc.. This is a WAR simulation right? Let's have some gore!!

I wonder if it would be possible to add that stuff with mods in the future.. I'm sure EA would rather it not get added though to maintain the family-friendly fare..

I just find it kind of bizarre how you can blow people away with every kind of modern weapon available short of nuclear weapons and they don't show a drop of hemoglobin!

The puffs of smoke that come off someone when you shoot them were orginially red blood splatter. I am, however, quite sure they changed this in order to get a lower ESRB rating.

Heh, yep.. If we learned one thing from the GTA:SA "Hot Coffee" fiasco, it is how important and relevant the ESRB ratings are!

Ahh.. soldier of fortune.. now *that* was a mind-warper for the kiddies!

Personally I think having blood and getting an M rating for the game limits your income on the game a lot, so I think its better to get a T rating. Oh and in real life, not too often do spurts of blood fly out of a body when shot, maybe if your arm gets blown off, but not from a bullet hit. Or sometimes if a body part is just clipped it may spray a bit of blood, but other than that you could have blood stain the clothes the person is wearing...

i think small blood stains on clothing would be nice, but full blown gore wouldnt really appeal to me...

and when the medic comes to heal you, like he should, you can have a bandage on the wound!

Resulting in a whole load of guys running about the field covered from head to toe in bloodstained bandages with their shirts ripped open exposing their slightly charred nipples from all the defib action they've seen.

Loving this thread.

What about a mod: BF2:Soccer
where when someone gets sniped in the head, their head comes off and everyone gets to play soccer with it. First team to score, say, 3 points get a random spawnpoint, and then everyone goes back to fighting again.

/me played Blood alot when it was out (way back when)

Good stuff...they should also limp around if they have say one bar of health left.  I mean come on, if he stubs his toe at this point he dies, he should be limping!

Ok, lets run with this for a bit and see where it takes us...

Any player who has endured sufficiently traumatic situations should freak out and either sit in a quivering, catatonic haep or start trying to hug everyone to 'make friends'.
((Player's_cool_factor) - ((1 * (enemy_deaths) x 1/(distance_from_death))+(2 * (friendly_deaths) * 1/(distance_from_death)))

Too many lapses and the the player starts to suffer from PTSD and has to retire to a farm in Nebraska
((Rank - Days_since_last_episode) - (total_episodes * (1/Player's_cool_factor))

Better weapons need to be available to everyone.  Helicopters and jets have too much of an advantage.  Very little to shoot them down with and numerous hits don't hurt them.  Having to hit a tank 3 to 4 times with a rocket is too much also.  2 would be plenty.

wha?!?  does this have anything to do with blood?

this thread is quite funny, esp. duffry, who tried to turn BF2 into a popularity contest with the introduction of the "cool factor."

blood, n.
One of the four humors of ancient and medieval physiology, identified with the blood found in blood vessels, and thought to cause cheerfulness; like a really big gun.

Awww...cummon, that would just be like BFV. Many a time I sustained what was, if not very nearly, then very actually, a fatal injury from falling down the last three stairs. It was a real lesson to me cos I thought the US sent their troops over with some PT under their belt and were required to have passed at least a rudimentary physical. It turns out that they actually used arthritic old pensioners who's bones were so brittle that they were liable to snap in a stiff breeze.

No wonder they lost (drew)!

I always seem to manage hurting myself when running down staircases in bf2 as well... apparently they haven't reformed the enlistment standards much since vietnam.

Nothing worse than jumping off the building and the parachute fails to open, ouch!  Almost as bad as stubbin the toe running down stairs. 

Have you ever noticed how when you see someone jumping, they seem to be leaning forward like head first towards the ground?  But then your view if you're the jumper never changes from the upright standing position?  Kinda weird.
