HL2 Ragdoll

ROFL. I saw that last night and thought the exact same thing!

One thing I've noticed seriously lacking from any ragdolls to date is bodies 'rolling' down hills, stairs, etc.

For example, when you kill someone on those big steep steps or ramps in Aztec, their bodies just fall to the floor and stay completely stationary. I'd like to see bodies rolling down the steps or slopes, I think it would look awesome, even if it was slightly less realistic. It's like Far Cry - some aspects of the ragdolls are less realistic than CS:S, but look cooler anyway, like how the corpses have less friction with the ground so they slide down hills more.

If you want that, go play ut2k4. Source has friction baby.

Don't try to tell me what to play.

I've seen some ragdolls slide down stair cases in CSS, but no rolling. Sliding is a result of lack of friction. With better friction the ragdoll should roll down the steps. Would be great with the right sound fx too. Roll on HL2...
