Well, it HAS approximately the same amount of realism as people who get shot, bleed from their eyes, and is perfectly fine 4 seconds later.Mcupobob said:
My problem is the texture they use is absolutely horrid, it looks like kool aid and jam, I liked fallout 3 and newvegas's way, because it usually wasnt too annoying and it didnt look the enemy had thrown a jam tart at you, although the blur was annoying.
I say that those people are silly.
In most FPSs you also don't have legs or a shadow, and your hand sticks out of your neck. At least blood spraying up into your eyes is a possibility.
Although personally I prefer the screen to become more and more saturated, and I'm still happy to use a health bar.

Indeed.
I have to agree there. People complaining about the "realism" of jam spraying in your eyes need to keep in mind the basics of FPS.Woodsey said:
Ah, beat me to it. I knew it had to be done.Zachary Amaranth said:
In all seriousness, I don't really mind the red screen thing as long as it doesn't obscure too much, which unfortunately it usually does.
Actually, they've done that, but with a vest that basically thumps you lightly where you got hit. It wasn't very popular.PayJ567 said:
OT: I like how a little indie game called Lugaru HD did it. It was a third person action game (so it would be difficult to replicate in an FPS). You'd basically see cuts where you got hit, and too much damage would cause your character to move slower and hold his side. Eventually, your vision would get blurry. Then you'd die. It was pretty cool, if somewhat inexact.
Wow, a lot of love for the archaic energy bar. Isn't it a good job that the industry didn't think 'What's wrong with x; it's worked fine up to now?' If they had we would still be playing sprite based games on cassette tapes moving from one static location to the next while marvelling at the dozens of colours on screen at once.
OT: I would be against anything that hampered the players performance (ie: blurred vision, diminished accuracy, shaky-cam) as it would cultivate the mindset of "I'm dying so I might as well reload". If anything, I believe a game should help you if you are dying to keep you invested. I like the idea of the time slowing effect (I also agree it is useless in multi-player) and think something like that coupled with a change of perspective and an inability to move(like shooting from a prone position) would give the feeling that you have something to fight for. Or possibly an adrenaline meter that goes up as you are shot and when it is maxed out you go into a bullet time state like Max Payne or RDR and have to clear out enough enemies to give yourself time to recover as you'd be helpless for ten seconds after it finishes.
