the lack of blood effects was one of the things that really dissapointed me in bf2. I wondered what everyone else thought. do we follow EA's ethos on no gore, or do we make it more realistic. im aware that the overall idea is to make as realistic a game as possible in as many aspects, hence why i started this discussion.
There definitely ought to be blood. Preferably more if hit in the head (Not sure that can be done, but a little experimentation with the material editor will tell for sure)
