guppy22143 1081 Posted February 21, 2014 So, I was recently playing on a hardcore server... When something quite interesting (and alarming) happened.I started running, and it said "my heart is beating faster than normal". I decided it COULD just be due to the running, but took pain killers just to be sure."I feel light headed" I am thinking it is exhaustion at this point, so I decide to sit down for a little while."My body feels numb" This is when I know for sure that something is wrong. It could be an effect of the painkillers... But I am afraid my character might be going into cardiac arrest. I will observe what happens, and see if I can treat it. For science!

guppy22143 1081 Posted February 21, 2014 (edited) Actually, it seems that the pain killers have done their work... I can not be sure at the moment what exactly that was, but if it was a heart attack, pain killers seem to be used to treat it. EDIT: I will do more testing later. That was either exhaustion, and the painkillers numbed me, or a heart attack, and the pain killers treated it.

Ineedscoffee 464 Posted February 21, 2014 In the event of suspected cardio arrest, I need you to force yourself to cough, deeply every thirty seconds, and get some Bayer Asprin :p 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Duenan 226 Posted February 21, 2014 Stop eating so much mcdonalds.... Seriously Don't run at full sprint all the time. I believe they added heart attacks to address this problem where ppl run at full sprint across the map. If you run at the regular joggin speed and take periodic breaks to search/eat/catch your breath you wont have an issue Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dvsilverwing 241 Posted February 21, 2014 I'm completely against the idea, I think it's absolutely ridiculous to implement.

guppy22143 1081 Posted February 22, 2014 After further testing, I have concluded that this must be server-side. I just can't get the status again. However, I will try again tomorrow. Juuuust to be sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NSAID - anti-inflammatory? Maybe you mean an NSAIA (analgesic + antipyretic) ?Ask Guppy, he's the medic.. I'm just a passing guy in the street. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
