Unconsciousness with ragdoll animations.

Recommended Posts

I believe that unconsciousness should also, like death, result into the body going completely limp. (Aka ragdoll animations) So you can't tell straight off the bat that you've killed somebody. So sed person has to take the risk of walking up to the body and checking it's pulse. It would also be more realistic, instead of this default fall flat on your face animation no mater what direction you were shot from.

Agreed, no questions asked. If I get knocked out, I'm not gonna be able to make sure I land the exact same every time, it just ain't right. And considering we already have the ragdoll, I don't see why this shouldn't be done. Just yesterday I got into a firefight and killed one of the people shooting at me when he was bandaging and I could tell right off the bat that he was dead because of the ragdoll, which while convenient, I don't like it considering I love challenges (Plus it let me react immediately to his partner whose gun I could see clipping through the fence while he peaked over in third person xD)

I completely agree with you, though I think the trouble...well, the "trouble" with that would be in Bohemia's ability to make the transition from whatever position you land in back to a proned/standing/crouched position. Ragdolling can put your character's model into some odd looking positions. Making sure that the character transitions back to a conscious posture from there...that could prove very difficult.

I do imagine that this would probably save some lives.

I didn't even think about that xD But honestly I don't think people would mind that much if the limbs and whatnot just teleported into an animation of you getting back up. It's a small price to pay.

I was thinking the same thing.

That would be fine. Anything is better than the Arma 3 Wasteland style of you just "Poofing" onto the ground dead. If your ragdolled character popped into a position similar to proning everytime you regained consciousness...that would give the animation a place to resume anything from.
