I had this idea:

After you have lost 25% of your health the models should become Battle Damaged, to add a bit more of realism in it.

Good idea or Bad Idea?

Good Idea, but much work. The ESF-Team needs for every Character a damaged model.

They could always add it in after Beta 2.0

*Yawn*

Has been suggested before.
It takes too much time to code and will cause too much lag, just think of it.
You want to trade gameplay for better graphics?

Don't count on it.

It isnt a terrible idea, but it makes it so the team has to make 4 models for each character. Well, even more than that in later releases.

It's just too many models and too many model changes.

I think its a good idea, and you would only have to make 2 models, even still tho, its abit of a luss and i dont think the modeling team would do something like that, too much effort. I say leave it for a later release and concentrate on gameplay for now :)

Like I suggested, they could always add it in after Beta 2.0 or maybe even in the final version.

it is a terrible idea, for those of you who are not high bandwidth:

1. It would add a ton of lag if everyone was getting hit and had to change models
2. The size of the esf dl would be a whole lot larger
3. And would it really be worth it in the end?

It would be horrible lag. Every time a kame killed a bunch of people their models would swap over the final 25% health models before they respawned. It would cause all kinds of problems with hard drive access and signals sent out from the server.

if they implent it later, lets say after beta 2.0 everyone will have better computers, from sayin to ss it took 1 year of coding.

so beta 2.0 stays away too for 1 year lets say?

by then I think everyone will have athlonXP or P4 as mininum and the lag will be gone :)

Well all they would have to do is switch the skin, not that tough.

if you think about it, you will only need 2 models for each character...so it wont be that hard for the esf team, just get a modeler to make a bd model of each character and just code it to under 50%, you become bd or something, and to be honest i have not the foggest idea how much coding will be needed to do that...
