i agree to some extent, but it really, really needs to be done carefully as was said earlier... earlier today i logged in, and apparently as i was loading, another player happened upon me. as i entered the game world, someone was in the middle of an assault rifle burst and i was already down to half health and bleeding before even the location text sprang up. if half of the ideas in this topic had already been implimented, i would have died simply because i logged in at the wrong moment on the wrong server. I'm all for stopping people running away from a firefight, but there are so many problems that could arise from each idea, and could potentially ruin what is an amazing mod (heck, game!)
