Blood spatter in the cockpit to denote pilot injury but not dismemberment of body?

I thought CoD is a simulation of planes and aerial combat, but maybe I was wrong.

Sorry to confuse you so easily. Its a simulation of Flight and aerial combat. And gore was apart of that. Just like weather and wind which is also part of the simulation.

Voted erm....naaaaah.

Although the blood spattered goggles, red peripheral vision and silence followed by a gradual return of sound in RoF make me feel more wounded than the gradual fade to red in CoD.

Other aircraft doesn't matter to me at all.

Blood on the cockpit as in IL2 doesn't bother me at all. It doesn't stir my blood lust, understanding it is just a game.

Voted yes for a bit of Blood, nothing more

MP, I can understand this from your point of view as a movie maker, from my perspective as an online pilot there really does need to be a way to indicate that you are "wounded" if that does happen. So I suppose your suggestion is a valid one.

It would be really helpful currently as there are no sounds to indicate that you are taking enemy fire.

We all know how the ratings work. If they do that they may have to change the rating of the game from pegi16 to M. That's a big pain in the arse to deal with. Think about changing cd cases and all that crap.

Something like in ROF where you loose hearing for a while and get that tunel vision is all that's needed. Not blood stains visible from outside.

Blood stains visible from outside are waste of computing power.

The injury modelling is appropriate as it is. If you are injured you get varying degrees of 'red out' and returning to base to land has a visual penalty which is more important than red splatter (and would be difficult to see during red out anyway). BTW, It does fade to black if serious and it's flight over.

happened to me once.the screen gets darker with every breath you make until its pitch black.
