LoL! Sounds like something from a Sam Raimi movie! 'Attack of the Marchng Colons!" Ha!
On a serious note, infantry or groups of military people of any type with DM would benefit the game.

I think this blood fest is over-egged massively. People have been watching to many horror flicks or Tarantino movies. Which brings me to this:

Mate, if your brains were scattered across the windshield I seriously doubt you'd be particularly bothered about the pretty red patterns they're smearing across the plexiglass as 10-1 odds you'd be *slightly* DEAD.
Wounds which spread or splash such copious quantities of blood around would by their very nature be caused by large high explosive round wounds to areas of an arterial nature, likely to be at least highly incapacitating if not fatal. Your virtual Il-2 pilot is unlikely to be around long enough to worry about the Rorschach ink blot test he's just sprayed across his windshield.
Other wounds caused by bullets are likely to be far less dramatic given the layers of clothing and harness' that help staunch and contain the fluids.
Besides which, what does this accomplish ingame? It looks cool? Immersion?
Right.
If you wander round thinking the sloshing around of large quantities of type O Negative is cool, I'd recommend you to a shrink. Having been exposed to one bloody accident were a man died I, personally could quite happily go to my grave without seeing things of that ilk again.
As for immersion - what? Sorry this argument makes bugger all sense to me. You might as well argue for me to have my girlfriend standing behind with a shotgun so that when I get hit in game she blows pieces of me and the surrounding furniture apart; just so I can get a bit closer to the real terror!
Please.

I think this discussion item is somehow bigot and way overrated.

De-senstisation to violence discussions are well beyond the purview of this forum and this thread. Let's not start that please. It's a massive can of worms and unless you've got a long list of qualifications in child psychological medicine then none of us are in a position to make knowledgable opinions on the matter.
