Pilot wounds and black outs
« on: November 04, 2007, 11:23:01 PM »
i was just wondering, it might be better to change the pilot wound blackout effect.
 I was thinking that instead of randomly blacking out the wounded player could get a permanent tunnel vision at the start of the wound that slowly creeps across the screen untill total black out when you die.

i think it would make pilot wounds more realistic to slowly loose you field of vision then die rather than instantly blackout and revive yourself 15 times then die.

I disagree


I think the pilot wound should be different for differnt countries..

I.E.

American Plane:
 you should be able to grab some lucky strikes and a picture of betty grabel off the bezel and keep yourself conscious till you reach base though sheer nicotine and dirty thoughts.

British Plane:
you grab a cigar and do poor impressions of churchhill, the put on a white powder whig and swear profusley at the "rat bastard" that plugged you.  You get home, they amputate your elgs and you live out your years writing monty python skits.

Russian plane:
you scream MOTHERLAND, swig vodka, urinate on yourself (to prevent infection), spend the rest of the ride home scirbbeling profane poetry on the frosted windscreen.

German Plane:
your remove your leather underwear and use them to mya a tourniquet, you die 4 weeks later from massive infection.

Japanese Plane:
the Emperor did not give you permission to die.

Italian Plane:
you, im afraid.. are out of luck.

You tighten your War-Flag headband.
You try to unsheath your Katana, only to notice there isn't enough space to commit Seppuku inside the tight confines of the cockpit. The plane is then put into Auto-Pilot, which will override your controls, ram-kill the nearest enemy contact, be it plane, ship, structure, or vehicle. You will be credited for the kill. Within 12 miles, in all Japanese planes there will be a .wav played "BAAANZAAAI!!!"

add lag to POV changes and increase sensitivity to G such that head movement is G biased above 2G

How about adding hallucinations and random blood spurting?  Seriously, a variety of pilot wounding behavior would be appreciated, not that I like to be wounded, but with only one result to a pilot wound it becomes to predictable in it's eventual outcome.

Lol F.E.A.R. meets AHII, I can just see  a cutscene from FEAR with Alma the evil little wench shouting,

"Daddy Daddy dont die, I love you !!!!11!."

:eek:

It may not be a priority but HTC could have a lil fun with this. Tunnel vision, blurry vision, laggy vision etc. It would make a nice addition.

I like that idea..  

And also add ....
 
If one of your arms are hit,  it becomes immobile, so that when your flying there would be some kind of lag on the  throttle control.

If one of your legs are hit, you lose rudder command for that leg.

Maybe even some other kind of head wound besides the death blow.  
The screen will start to turn darker and darker red from blood streaming into your eyes, and every 30 seconds or so, you'll see an arm pop up and wipe it away.

Edit: might make someone think twice on HO shots too.  :aok

 Do we get to hallucinate about p0rn situations?

 That 'spurting' bit would eerily appropriate for this.
