4.12 development update discussion and feedback

I don't need any blood effects, but it would be a good idea to reintroduce slumped down crew members, so we have a visual indication that a pilot or gun position is taken out and we no longer have to waste ammo shooting at it. In contrast to blood it won't affect the ESRB rating.

+1. We dont need blood, we just need to know they are killed.

Agreed!

A slumped body, or the body disappearing would be enough to convey that aircrew are taken out when viewed from a distance when flying an aircraft. The AI running from a straffed vehicle column is enough to indicate they are kaput. A vehicle is a higher priority target than an individual soldier. Fields of soldiers would only increase FPS overhead.
