I think this could be a good idea however with that you're assuming that they'd actually care. If they're griefing in a sense to just cause frustration among other players then I don't believe that this would be effective but if they're still trying to play the mission a little bit it definitely will be. I think that this could be a really nice addition.Tazzadar3 wrote: Sat Jul 10, 2021 8:31 am Just an idea, what if when you kill a civilian, your character gets encumbered with guilt. You move slower, and you get more sight sway so that you become less accurate.
I don't want to be mean but are you joking when you say this? Guilt isn't a game mechanic.Tazzadar3 wrote: Sat Jul 10, 2021 8:31 am Just an idea, what if when you kill a civilian, your character gets encumbered with guilt.

This could be very easily abused, I disagree with this. Amper's plan sounds a lot more in control, than feeling the Spec Ops type guilt being brought up here.Tazzadar3 wrote: Sat Jul 10, 2021 8:31 am Just an idea, what if when you kill a civilian, your character gets encumbered with guilt.

its not going to far, its just when you are in a combat zone you dont have time to feel guilt. that is what gets you killed in a combat zone, when you are out there you focus on the mission at hand and you deal with everything else later. if you let emotions come over you while in combat that makes you more liable in combat. when stuff like that happen in the actual operation there were civilians killed and the people that killed them were prob shocked at first but they have to push that out of there head till they get back to their base of operations then they can let what happened sink in. so a guilt system i dont think would be too realistic or even an enjoyable mechanic. it is an interesting idea though.Tazzadar3 wrote: Sun Jul 11, 2021 5:43 pmMy comment wasn't meant to be offensive in any way.evan466 wrote: Sun Jul 11, 2021 2:03 pmI don't want to be mean but are you joking when you say this?

The game is going to be an emotional experience based on what the devs have portrayed about the game.
Guilt is a human emotion, and if it can be done properly in a game I don't see what is wrong with that.
Killing other humans in a video game is fine but guilt is going too far?
It seems inappropriate to me to portray guilt that way and use it as a game mechanic. If this weren't about real events I wouldn't care, but I think they need to use a little more care than to diminish anything these guys might have been feeling personally to status effects for the player.Tazzadar3 wrote: Sun Jul 11, 2021 5:43 pmMy comment wasn't meant to be offensive in any way.evan466 wrote: Sun Jul 11, 2021 2:03 pmI don't want to be mean but are you joking when you say this?

Thank you, I can totally see where you are coming from. Thinking about it from that context I can see how it would not make sense.stormycrown22 wrote: Sun Jul 11, 2021 7:52 pmits not going to far, its just when you are in a combat zone you dont have time to feel guilt. that is what gets you killed in a combat zone, when you are out there you focus on the mission at hand and you deal with everything else later. if you let emotions come over you while in combat that makes you more liable in combat. when stuff like that happen in the actual operation there were civilians killed and the people that killed them were prob shocked at first but they have to push that out of there head till they get back to their base of operations then they can let what happened sink in. so a guilt system i dont think would be too realistic or even an enjoyable mechanic. it is an interesting idea though.Tazzadar3 wrote: Sun Jul 11, 2021 5:43 pmMy comment wasn't meant to be offensive in any way.evan466 wrote: Sun Jul 11, 2021 2:03 pm
