Alright guys, so I dont know if any of you played the old FPS "Global Operations", but it was a pretty good game. Good array of weapons, maps, and a good community (only 1 active server still up D:). But anyway, once you were shot and killed, you were on the ground for around 45 seconds before you respawned. If a person on the "medic" class came up to your character, he could pull out his medical kit and inject something into you to stabilize you, you then stood up from your position on the ground, with 50% health. The medic could leave you there with 50% health or heal you back to a maximum of 80% health. During the 45 seconds on the ground you also had the option to "kill yourself" which was just your corpse dissapearing and respawning from the normal queue. I think this would be a good idea for KF. It would also make it so people arent sitting out of the game spectating forever, waiting for their teammates to kill all the specimen.

Thanks for reading, and post your thoughts please.

The respawns occur at the end of each wave. At the most, I think a wave would take about 15 minutes from start to finish. Not too much waiting. You have a good idea though. I think it would be cool if you could get pulled back into combat by a medic as long as the specimens havn't started feasting on your body yet, which they will do.

disagree completely, a specimen wont just leave u behind, it iwll eat you slaughter you and slash you to death, a simple adredaline thingy wont get u up.

imagine, thers a war, 10000 enemy soldiers, and ur by urself

well, i think that almost shows what a specimen would to do u :p
( not even talking about a FP )

i doubt this could ever be excepted becuase of:
1. KF vets are stuck in there ways
2. the guy is a furry
3. the guy is a ****ING FURRY
4. could make game allot easier

I didn't want to say it..

As everyone knows, I'm a flaming homosexual and I love feet, but I dont have a foot icon and I don't put "I LOVE OTHER MENS FEET" in my sig, because those are private affairs. There is nothing wrong with peoples orientation or fetishes, but I think it's wrong to rub them in others faces. :\
(none of this is true, except for me being gay for yoshiro only, and was only used for examples sake)

Nice save there. I spent time reading your post going, "Whaaaaaaat the heck is going on?"

As for the suggestion, sounds pretty neat. Maybe make it available once you fully level up the Support Specialist perk or something.

Also, in before "RES PLZ".

The devs basically said no revives though. They think it wouldn't be good for gameplay, and i'm inclined to agree.

When you can be rezzed it makes you less afraid of death.

-_- i was joking with the ****ING FURRIES thing i don't really care as long as they don't have a Anthropomorphic character choice as a bunny-man in a SAS suit with no gas mask.

Sounds interesting, but I think it would draw away with the fear factor of the game. Also about the furry thing, I dont really care much about it.
