Yay or Nay on Victim/Killer info on screen/Players list?

Recommended Posts

I would like to hear the community/Dev Team's thoughts on this feature.

I think this game would be even more amazing (Kudos!) if you knew who you killed or got killed by. Would make revenge/rivalries that much sweeter. There's is no better feeling when knowing who you are competing with.

Maybe a message like:

You are dead

"JerkFaceL33tzor killed you with a Mosin."

And somewhere briefly on HUD.

"You killed JerkFaceL33tzor with a Mosin."

Even if we could briefly see some type of icon in the players list or both.

Little red skull = Death

Little green target = Kill

Just something I've been thinking about while at work. Lol

Nah. I didn't like it in the mod. Won't like it in SA. For example, you shoot someone, think they are dead then they wake up and kill you while you loot their body. Where if you do get a kill message then you know for a fact that they are dead or not.

I never liked servers that displayed who shot me.

I see your point.

Maybe for Regular mode? :)

At least an option when private servers are finally launched.

I don't think this would be a good idea. 

 

But I'm not adverse to the idea of the server keeping track of how many people certain players have killed, and maybe putting out wanted notices for the names of known bandits who have killed lots of people regularly.

The one down side is that it can give away who might be in the area or what kind of player.

 

Say you just ran into some random player. They were cool, you got there name, you parted ways in different directions along the road. Not more than a minute later you see his name pops up that he was killed.

 

You now know someone is in that direction not far from you.

I don't really care who shot me. I would like it if it tracked how many times I've died, maybe what I died from and how many players/zombies I've killed.

No, because:

 

- players will not even have to check the body to confirm the kill

 

- griefing

 

- kill admin = ban

 

- muh immersion

When private servers are launched you bet people will make scripts so they are enabled, just like how they will turn half the private servers into what the mod is today, Jets, Tanks and ACR's in every building you walk in.

NOpe. It leaves the enemy suspicious and not ready to barge in to loot. No messages = they don't know if you are dead or not, so you can wake up from unconsciousness and rape em.

This pretty much sums it up...

It will be a server option or someone will make a script for it for private servers eventually.

I would prefer there to be a long, handwritten message upon my death, describing in very old-timey english the happenstances of my death.
