Gore

[JG52Krupi]

Rather than derail Meaker's excellent thread I have decided to make a poll on the question of gore in Cod.

My opinion on this subject is that it's not needed and I don't think it has even crossed MG mind (hopefully), blood on the cockpits is as far as I would want this to go.

I do not see the point in having a gore model, it is far too much work for something we would only see now and again and I am sure it would also promote parachute killing, something I despise

Anyway that's my 2p on this subject... Discuss!

Edit: when I say gore I'm not talking about a bit of blood, I am talking about a limbs etc...

Personally, I don't care about gore as long as there is some sort of animation/pilot position that tells me if he is dead or alive.

Same opinion, don't really care about gore as long as long as I can clearly see his head hanging down in the cockpit.

Those that voted yes please could you explain why you want to see limbs blown off!

[Helrza]

I wouldnt mind it to be honest, i dont mind a bit of blood splattered cockpit adds to immersion for me

edit: i would love exploding bits its the sadist in me rofl

No gore for me, thanks. Having said that, more information on what my injuries are would be useful. Maybe this isn't modelled though.

[JG52Krupi]

Dudes when I say gore I don't mean a bit if blood I mean limbs and a fully destroyable pilot!!!

[jimbop]

What would be good about gore is if pilot damage was modelled well enough to affect pilot controls appropriately. For instance, you take a round in your leg and can no longer use the rudder properly.

I would vote yes for that but gore just for the visual effect? No.

[Plt Off JRB Meaker]

Agree 100% Krupi,very well put

We don't need blood and guts on here,do we?maybe as some one put it on my thread,that not all the bail outs would be successful,and that maybe every now and then the automated pilot could fall against his aircraft and die,this would be realistic,and that would'nt require a show of blood,just him falling to the ground and parachute failing to be opened.

Quick historic story lightly connected:

The guy you see in my avatar was indeed the real Plt Off JRB Meaker,he served with 249 Squadron along with his pal Plt Off Percy Burton,they flew Hurricanes for 249 Sqn and whilst performing their duty on the 27th Sept 1940 were both killed within hours of one another over Sussex.It's a real sad story.

Burton should have received a medal for his gallant conflict with a Bf110 of Stab V(Z)LG1 on the 27th but was only mentioned in dispatches,after being mortally wounded,he flew straight into the path of his attacker forcing the German aircraft to crash.

Meaker was apparantly shot down by the crossfire from some five Ju88's and although unharmed from the aircraft being shot up,he managed to bail out,unfortunatley as he did so he fell against the tailplane of his aircraft and fell to earth,his parachute unopened.

I've always thought these two guys depicted the true bravery and sacrifice our RAF guys gave during WW2,and having Meaker as my avatar is in a way a very small tribute.

the blodier the merrier.

JK, but voted yes. i want to go by the cockpit of an enemy plane and be able to see if hes dead or not, i know, see some blood in it, like some il2 moods
