One has had the chance to commit suicide in a (multiplayer) FPS for over a decade.
Like in Counter-Strike:
1. type 'kill' in console
2. there is no step two
Though the logic to kill yourself in a FPS because you think you can't win, or to deny kills from another player; is the one of a complete asshole. I'm sure there's a more fitting name, but the equivalent would be to play an online game of RTS against another player, and as soon as one thinks he won't necessarily win: to disconnect.

"bind k kill"
that's the way it goes on pc =P
but really, it would be useful, especially in situations like, say, you get stuck because of a glitch
or to piss that sniper who had your head on sight off ^-^

I vote yes on the "HARA-KIRI" button!TimeLord said:
I Wanna be the Guy had one, you press "Q" and you explode!
actually thinking about it
what if an FPS had a weapon that was a suicide bomb?
you die and give off a boom equal to 2 grenades?
I don't know just a thought
but if there is a suicide button make it so you die in an awesome way.
like in B.Y.E.
Battlefield 2 has one, but you only used it is cases like when u fell out of a plane and got stuck away from everything cause the maps were HUGE and it woulda taken like 30mins to walk to the nearest vehicle.
Nah. Only really fun on old style split screen multiplayer where your friends can thump you in person and laugh about it. It just kind of defeats the purpose of a competitive game... the game is you shoot at each other until someone dies. Topping yourself to deny the other guys point is just cheating really.
... Although the tactical suicide plan is hilarious
And yes, I'm waiting for someone to dig out the Life of Brian suicide squad clip, which I'm too lazy to find myself.

You want to add cheap tricks to games?TimeLord said:
Can you see any possible way this would go well?
Well I would add it to games just for shits and giggles, but at the end of the match take 5 kills off your score for every suicide.
When stuff you do over a prolonged interval of time actually matters in the long run over one playing session, then you need that button. It's just not much games require that much attention these days.
I remember doing suicide in BF2, where sometimes you just go too far off. We also used to play a lot of Quake 2/3 at school and would play out a suicide "joke" just before the other player takes the shot. It all counts as a loss, so can't quite exploit it.
As for controversy... what?

Toss a grenade into a corner and follow it in, that usually does the trick.
But no, I think it would just turn into more griefing. I wouldn't play a game very long if every time I got into a firefight with someone they just hit the hari-kiri button when they were about to lose.
