Sleep and how it would work.

[theomi 9]

So much bullshi in this threat.

Whats the problem? After running 5km your Charackter gets tired an needs to rest a little bit. While he is tired he cant sprint and hold breath for aim not that long. You need to trink a coffe or a energy drink or take a powernap for getting fit again. If you ignore the tiredness you charackter will pass out after running another 5km and has aiming behavior like while freezing.

It do not slow down the gameplay or something like that.

But yes i know... it is too hard for you pussys here.... go play sims...

So much games already using this.

Thank you for the support :D

If you're suggesting implementing a regular length sleep-cycle it's pretty pointless since uh, we have that in real life anyway, and I'm pretty sure we can't play video games while we're asleep

If you're suggesting implementing a sped-up sleep-cycle then it'd be a proper nuisance being forced to take 2 hour breaks from the game every few hours

Sleep just doesn't work in online, real-time games

There should be no sleep mechanic. Why? Because when Im drunk in rl or sleepy in rl - this is ALREADY translated into the way I behave in game. If Im sleepy in rl then Im gonna occasionally stop moving as I start to pass out. My aim will be worse since I cant concentrate. ETC.

Food, drink, temperature work right now. Sleep would just be silly.

Sleep would make perfect sense .

I guess it would mean less time being able to shoot new spawns with no gear , but you'll tough it out .

I can't understand how you could possibly come to the conclusion that if they implemented it , it would be a true to life sleep cycle , that would very obviously , be really dumb .

A well thought out sleep mechanic could add awesome to the game .

If a 5 minute nap would serve to aid in blood recovery, recovering from infection, or just regaining energy, I don't see any real problem with it.

Ideally, your character would be having a dream, and in that dream they'll be playing pac-man. Or maybe Space Invaders.

Real time sleep is bad, mkay.
