Removing the respawn button sucks.

I actually like that it was removed. I have never respawned whored because I wasnt close enough to Cherno or Elektro for gear. Normally I just run or go look in the small towns since everyone skips over them. That way I can atleast have a makarov or some rifle/shotgun when I go to the bigger cities. Ive actually been able to fully gear for survival up north without ever touching foot in a big city.

I just hate seeing "This person died" like 9000 times.

Do people actually get the concept of permadeath? it's not just losing your gear. You're supposed to lose all your friends etc. Simply running back to your friends to continue your old life means your PC hasn't died, merely been transported naked to the beach. To embrace permadeath, one must willingly give up every part of your PC's previous existence and start afresh. However, that is anathema to most people who want to simply play with their mates.

Spot on! This would make people play as if it was an actual survival game.
