Ragdoll effect what did you expect of it ???

[ulukai]

What i want with the ragdoll effect it s when i shoot a zombie or combine soldier with the spas 12 it s that they are ejected 2 or 3 meters of you.

I want when i shoot with the rpg the cars are also ejected you know something like the strider movie.

heheh, english aint your first language is it?


Anyway, I think I understand you.
I would like to see the rag doll effects on some of the new aliens.
I mean there has to be some with lots of limbs. Its gota be funny to watch rag doll effect on a 8 armed creature lol.

One thing I've noticed in the games that have quite good ragdoll effects such as Postal 2 (and subsequently UT2k3 I guess, but I've never played it), and Hitman 2 is that ragdolls don't take notice of each other. If two enemies are killed in a similar position and one dead body falls on another, they'd clip through each other rather than appearing as though each one are still physically simulated with more than just the ground they fall on.

Don't get Ridic started on ragdoll effects and gun realism, so if you see him inhere, act casual...

 

[Guest]

I'll tell you what i want to see that won't be ragdoll realated. I want to be able to shoot a lonely combine in teh leg and shooting arm, and see those arms/legs go limp. I want to see him fear for his life and decide to run away.. then i want to pop a round in his stomach and whatch him hold his guts in and wiggle around before going ragdoll limp.

i want to shoot off their kneecabs and whatch him grab at it in pain. i want to pop one clean between there eyes and whatch there body siezure for a minute before going limp.

GIVE ME MY GORE!

My god, you really are a phsycopath!

Seriously thou, there is nothing more satisfying than winning with little damage to yourself, but after all the firing ends to whatch and hear some soldiers still 'dying' while you reload, thats just unexplainably wonderful!

I want ragdoll to effect a creature while they are still live, as opposed to only when they die. It would be so cool to shoot a combine in the leg and have him fall over, only to keep firing and the try to get up, or shoot one with the shotgun and it smacks him against a wall, then he gets back up.

They have a system like this in freedom fighter, only more basic. You can throw a grenade and it will knock someone flying ragdoll style, they will land in a heap and look dead/knocked out. Only for them to get up and try to fight again. Very cool.:afro:

hahah you know it!

 

[Stingey]

i'd like to see.....
"The combine comander looks pretty scared since he lost his gun and his team and not to forget, a evil scientist called Freeman has a Usp Match aimed at his head"
"he raises his hands above his head, and closes hsi eyes and prays to god" "Suddenly he feels a enormous pain in his kneecab and drops to the ground." "The scientist is pointign his spas-12 at the commander his leg and..." "As the commander screams out in pain the scientist begins shooting his fingers off" "The commander is now screaming and can't move a muscle when the scientist slaps a crowbar in his face and rips the mask and nose off." "Then the scientist lays down a grenade in the pool of blood rapidly spreading the street." "He walks away and the combine commander is gettinge ven more afraid between his screams of pain" "at 100 meters Freeman picks out his sniper rifle and begins to aim slowly and the commande ris realizing what is gonna happen and crawls to the grenade" "he stretches out for it when he hears a shot and lets out a final scream" The scientist walks away like a painter that just painted the streets red"

admit this got you thinking

 

[marksmanHL2 :)]

It got me thinking all right.

It got me thinking that this whole forum is filled with phycopathic maniacs and that I should revise my thinking on whether games affect people!

Oh yeah it got me thinking.................

 

[Guest]

wow.....uh..thats was really...uhh, yeah.

 

[Guest]

stingey that was so cliche and overworked and just down RIGHT CHEESY

 

[Animal]

I'm not really into virtual torture, thats just going a bit too far. And what the hell has it got to do with ragdoll physics!?

 

[Logic]

Gun culture is really getting to people's heads. I liked HL not because you shot the crap out of people, but because it felt like you were fighting for your very survival. I know we all have a sort of killer instinct about us (I played through SOF and I admit sometimes the gore can be unexplainably satisfying) but I don't think that's something we should WANT to enjoy - it's not that far from the feeling of power maniacs get in real life from killing people.

As for the ragdoll physics, I think HL2's ragdoll physics will be better than the hitman style physics - bodies will react physically with each other, because every physically simulated object is a part of the same simulation, all taken care of by Havoc.

I dont think ive ever related to somone more in my life

 

[Chris D]

Is "kneecab" another word for "biozeminade"?!

I've always been told that it's a kneeCAP. Not a kneecab.

 

[Deadline]

I just want to play HL2 and cause a huge group of combine soldiers go careening through the air because i just set off a detpack which was right underneathe them that would be funny as hell

 

[marksmanHL2 :)]

Stop it!, Stop it I say!


I cant handle all the anticipation as it is!

Oh god, now you got me thinking about mupliplayer again.


dont expect me to post again, ever...


I will have exploded with just thinking about the possibilities

 

[Typhon]

i always thought gordon was a good guy...not a sadistic psycho. Though I suppose we can play him however we like, considering he doesn't speak.

 

[dis]

Don't speak of the biozeminades. They're watching...

You think one of the good guys could kill things so coldblooded as he does? You think one of the good guys would last 1 second against an alien? You think one of the good guys would get such a nice babe as Alyx? Only mean and psycho guys get the killing, babes and gore and survive to tell about it. Just look at GTA. Or Duke Nukem 3D. Certified psycho, he ALWAYS get to kill, get to see halfnude dancing ladies and get to blow stuff up

 

[Typhon]

ok, but while duke revelled in carnage, he never tortured or prolonged death. its one thing to be a bad ass, but another to be just plain EVIL.

But we are Gordon...

We don't just watch him fight we control if we want to shoot the combine or sneak past them, we're like the headcrabs and Gordon is our host

 

[Guest]

omg you know what! i forgot about sniping!! from see'ing all these valve vids and close combat.. oh my god! i wonder if you'll be able to one hit kill even huge creatures with an extremely well placed round from afar!?!

to think of a combine near some water and letting off a round without him even hearing the shot.. OH MAN

 

[nw909]

"Shoot him in the head, if you can find it..."

There has to be a sniper rifle of some sort in the game, it's a staple weapon of first person shooters now.
