Bullet/nade damage from dead soldats

[Graham]

I was playing today and realized some kills I got came from bullets or nades that hit after I was dead. I think there should be a server option to turn this on or off. The default will be "on" and it will be like it is now, everything hurts. When "no" is selected only bullets/nades that hit while your alive count.

[Aoba]

Hmm, I agree about having an option to enable it or disable. However,  it's fun if someone dies from a grenade thrown just a moment before getting killed. I like this suggestion, as long as there really would be an option for it.

[Sotija]

I like that + Good suggestion.

[T-Bone]

I think it's a good idea, but the only people that use it will be people who want to get better.  All the n00bs that think they run Soldat won't select it cause they want those last few bullets/nade to get them a kill so they can show their 1337 $K1LLZ0I2Z

Yeah, sometimes i die from late shots and you dont see the log in the top right hand corner it just has there name like "Major <no gun> and it dosent say how you died, i think its just late registering, i think its just lag.

[Denacke]

I don't get the idea behind this suggestion at all. Isn't it fun and strictly normal that your bullets and grenades still have effect after you died?

I totally miss the point/use for this suggestion.

Agreed.

I dont think this idea should be implemented because making kills after your death is pretty big. Think anout CWs and stuff

[iDante]

I think that if this were implemented I would scream. If you throw a nade and are killed, your nade is still going to go off and kill whoever runs it over. I dont see why one would want this not to happen, unless you are being owned over and over by a dead dude ... My vote, NO.

I do think that bullets going slower than x speed should not inflict damage though.

[xurich]

Absolutely not. It's only natural that the shots you make while still alive will still give damage after you're dead. Think about M79 duels where both people shoot, Player A has a pretty ordinary, quick kill, while Player B's shot makes an awesome arc and comes crashing down upon Player A's head, seconds after Player B is already dead. I've had many classic moments like these, and I'd hate to see them no more over something so completely unnecessary. I can see no real reason for enabling this option.

That already happens... to a degree I guess. The farther and less speed a bullet has, the less damage

But if you got rid of that there would be no last minute revenge, let alone be unrealistic.
makes no sense to get rid of it...

Having to get shot 8-10 times from a ak before you die is realistic? Btw I love using my jet boots to fly to work.

[RabidTreeFrog]

Aw, common.

  Death by a dead guy is one of my favorite things. Rush in, throw some nades, burn off a steyr clip, die, kill 3 guys due to nades. Funfun.

[Graham]

I just think it would be nice to have the game to be a bit more challanging.

[Plonkoon]

this would totally screw up half my knife kills, which I throw in the thick of a fight once I run out of ammo.  I usually hit someone but only after I'm dead.

vulbastick should have said Illogical. IMO , unrealistic is fine ( 2d, jetboots , 10 bullets to kill,respawing, etc..) but but something not logic? come on,  it is reasonable to expect your bullets to be independent and just be after you fired them .  this idea is like to make teamkills add to your kills , your gun shooting backwards, all bullets that dont hit do, all those that hit dont..., its just illogical and will ruin the game

What about bullet time then?

[Sethamundo]

CW's no, but as an option for the server, who knows it might not be bad for pubs every now and then...

Yeah, I dont like this idea.

[Yuth]

Eh ? 

I think this would be a pretty lame addition.
Because of some of the following reasons:

- I agree that getting killed by a dead guy is pretty annoying.
But this would just screw the gameplay up.
