Hey! 
 
...so. A bleed out feature. I'll elaborate.
 
You know when an enemy kills you and you're taken to a spectator mode of your killer with what's going on in their kit and their current health? Far too many a time I've noticed their health being at around 5%. (don't even get me started on a rant about explosive splash damage on an enemy and getting an 'x' and they run off or kill me just fine when in reality they should be crawling on the ground with no legs... give or take.)
 
So. Personally, I'm of the opinion that at around 5% give or take (there's that phrase again), there should be a type of bleed out of sorts, or limping. Something! Seeing such a small, precise percentage is comical in a way. Frustrating, maybe. Seeing such a specific number with no drawback or consequence is somewhat irritating.
 
Further, if you're bleeding out, you would need the assistance of a medic or you'll die within the minute. I mean, this idea can't be accused of being overpowered; it's 5% (or any varying number below 10%). 
 
Sorry if this was a bit random. I've run into it a lot and to be genuinely honest, I feel my idea ain't bad. 
 
Whatever, though. Still a fun game and I'm so glad Dice and EA got their asses in check regarding the problems and connectivity issues that plagued the game about 2 months ago. Got rid of it late May because of the issues and then I heard that the problems were addressed. All in all, hey. It's a good game. I just felt like rattling on and seeing if there were any other like-minded users that had similar thoughts cross their mind regarding a bleed out feature.
 
Thanks for reading. Toodles.

thats is a great idea about needing a medic after getting shot or you hp will gradually decrease like adding it to hardcore mode or something but the game is still great anyway. i just need some damn new maps

Snipers would be even more annoying. Everyone would have to play as a medic at all times.

It's certainly an interesting idea.

It is an interesting idea. I think it would work better with a more realistic shooter then Bad Company 2. As much teamwork as BC2 sometimes has it isn't really necessary and no one really plays for the team most of the time.
 
Now, I think they had a similar system in America's Army when I used to play. That game was intense. :D

Here's to hoping for BF3 "

Toodles?

They should make it like RavenShield on the PC - one shot from almost any gun and you start limping at half speed, another shot will kill you.

this features exists in the Project Reality mod for BF2, if I recall correctly. Project Reality is the superior mod, IMO, for BF2; overall there is extensive attention to detail by the Project Reality developers. They're not like DICE where they don't care to polish their games. DICE has gotten sloppy.

Good idea for a game like ARMA or realism-focused mods like Project Reality.  Not a good idea for Battlefield.

When your health is that low usually you can't hear anything on the battlefield and your screen is blurry and red. Then your health regenerates and you're fine again. That's just how modern games are these days unless you're playing ARMA

Interesting idea. It certainly is annoying when I shoot a guy several times in the back and he somehow kills me, and when I get to the Killer screen I see that he has 1% health left. Doesn't make any sense.

Sounds good in theory, but will you still be able to finish dudes off while they're like that? If not, snipers will become ten times more of a hassle.

To be fair, theere's already a systems sommewhat like this in place. For me at least, sound is absolutely vital to success in BC2, so the near death muting effect is already a pretty big handicap, unless a medic comes along and heals me out of it quickly.

5%-10% seems like a pretty good number... but my only issue is that sniping will be even more powerful, so some balance tweaks would be necessary. 

Negative, I already own Arma II.
