aon Posted September 13, 2017 Report Posted September 13, 2017 IDK if this has been posted before. First of all, this is @InvalidSun's idea. I'm sure he can explain this a little better. People shouldn't respawn 10 seconds after they've died. There should be a "coma period" where you would just be in the hospital kinda like being in jail, should last 10-15 minutes. This is to avoid people breaking NLR, and also adding a little bit of regard for life. 1 2
Xylum Posted September 13, 2017 Report Posted September 13, 2017 + Will ensure NLR isn't broken and will add some fear to "death". 1
InvalidSun Posted September 13, 2017 Report Posted September 13, 2017 +1 You pretty much worded my idea properly. It would definitely add more regard for the player's life, would definitely reduce Cop vs Criminal shootouts, and would stop NLR almost completely. The coma should be a universal timer, so if the player logs out for the entire 10-15 minutes, they can come back and play after. 2 1
InvalidSun Posted September 13, 2017 Report Posted September 13, 2017 This could also go hand-in-hand with someone else's suggestion where the bodies remain for a duration after death so police can tend to investigating the body.
Lumin Posted September 14, 2017 Report Posted September 14, 2017 More downtime = less fun. People log in to play their characters not sit in imaginary prisons. With some tweaking ,perhaps, it could be beneficial (only serious injuries, like losing your entire health in matter of seconds) but otherwise no.
Phil McGee Posted September 14, 2017 Report Posted September 14, 2017 Probably need an orderly to RP bathing the coma patients also............
NoewUH Posted September 15, 2017 Report Posted September 15, 2017 +1 Perfect suggestion to increase fear of life without implementing a CK system. I cannot express how much I would genuinely enjoy this being added to the game. A mini suggestion on top of this, call it a "Recovery Period". All injuries do not end in comas, though regardless of the injury there is a "Recovery Period". 1
Captain Tofu Posted September 15, 2017 Report Posted September 15, 2017 (edited) Like the character couldn't run for the recovery period. Edited September 15, 2017 by Captain Tofu
\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ Posted September 16, 2017 Report Posted September 16, 2017 +1 but the one with the bodies on the floor sounds a bit more realistic, especially if you can add some server side info about the death like the injuries, the type of wounds and bullets(that'd be hard to script but still cool though)
iSeeYou Posted September 16, 2017 Report Posted September 16, 2017 Awesome idea and then you add what @InvalidSun said about the timer as it would go hand in hand. +1 !
