Slow death is simply lame, you're able to shoot back with basically no penalties but the screen going black in 3-5 seconds. Please think about this stupid feature devs added and either remove it or make it like 300% more sway and recoil, blur effect etc., so that it's still possible to shoot back but you have like 1/10 chance to hit.
Now it's just seems that getting that last frag and scoreboard kills farming is the way everybody plays, I see people that dont event try to bandage and go in for the last kill even if it means their death (or slow death). Also I don't like that kills are shown on the leaderboard, old RO way was better.

If i put one and one together I would guess that you are complaining about stolen frags.

Well you can only hipshoot while mortally wounded, so if you're getting hit by slowly dying enemies, duck and cover?

And sometimes you can't bandage, because the guy could have some brains and realize that would be the most excellent time to jump on you and shove some lead down your throat. Belive me I've done it myself a few times and it ruins peoples' days.

Nope I like it as it is brings some variation is well made so why should they remove it just shoot him another time....and if he can get you while his screen blacks out he deserved it

I usually execute people with my sidearm if I shoot them and they go into that "bleeding to death" stance, just pull out your gun, aim centermass, squeeze the trigger, and they go to sleep, FOREVER.

No you can aim down sides when in slow death mode

That going black is death. If you're disliking it because of being killed by people swaying around, dying, then take cover. they're about to die anyway.

If you don't like it when you yourself are having slow death, then you should find a different arguement than "only penalty is 3-5 seconds of going black"

I personally find it useful to finally get revenge. And I haven't really seen anyone get a kill while blacking out yet except in gameplay videos so, quite frankly, I see no reason to remove it.

I try and play with a semi-automatic rifle when possible, and for this reason and this reason alone, there's always a 2nd bullet following the first one.

You do realize that another bullet, or a side-step and a butt to the face is more than enough to make him go sleepytime, right?

I like the idea, but I don't like how you can reload, aim, and shoot just as accurately. I think it'd be awesome if you fumble and drop the gun or magazine after you've spent the last round, or just slow it down.

I think there should be some sway in addition to the decreased turning speed. For shooting at far of targets the only penalty is the darker screen, but if you know where they got you from it is as easy as if unwounded to hit.
