nickos86 Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 Hi, It might sound funny but I'd like to raise the way the player "dies" in the game. When being hit by a missile that cause the pilots death, you're being "kicked" from the plain the loud sound of explosion and wind. That's for itself is a very unpleasant and even disturbing experience... Is there a way to do "soft" death - black screen or tactical map after death, and the player must hit F2 to return as a viewer... Another option is for the plane to stop reacting to user inputs and for the canopy to get a "damaged" in plane model... Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coach Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 +100 ! It really startles me (in a very bad way especially in VR) to the point where I prefer to play invicible in SP. I'd rather have a silent black screen instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really do... But more than that - I'd like not to get a heart attack while flying a sim :) Perhaps a GUI option? Heart attack/Black screen of death? That could be nice.

Mars Exulte Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 What usually causes that is 'hear like in helmet'. Technically if you don't check that all sounds plays at the same level. With it unchecked, you'd simply turn the volume down like normal. Irony : people check 'hear like in helmet' because the game is too loud, then they turn the volume up because it's too quiet, then they complain when popping into external view/ejecting when the volume pops back to 'normal' (which at this point is insanely loud due to having turned the volume up to compensate for checking the helmet) Де вороги, знайдуться козаки їх перемогти. 5800x3d * 3090 * 64gb * Reverb G2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonofEil Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 I’ve never particularly liked the F2 view death either, always wanted a ‘screen goes black’ death. I’ve also wondered if such a mod is possible or exists. i7 7700K @5.0, 1080Ti, 32GB DDR4, HMD Odyssey, TM WH, Crosswind Rudder... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SonofEil Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 (edited) -1 btw: pure black screen is what makes players hit the reset button on their PCs I mean, in my fantasy version of game death you'd still be able to Function key to another view. If the first thing someone does is reset their PC instead of hitting an F key then...actually yeah, looking around the forums that's probably what would happen. Fine, I don't know, put "YOU DEAD" in the center of the blank view. And they say you actually white out, just saying. I had a NDE a few years ago, bad car accident. I was very quickly losing blood, vision got fuzzy, went black, woke up two days later. I was told that my heart had stopped beating in the ambulance. The actual experience of death is the result of the brain being starved of oxygen, whether due to low/no blood pressure, low blood oxygen levels, etc. This can easily (though inadvisably) be simulated by hyperventilating and clasping your hands to the sides of your neck. Most people report this as blacking out. I've never died from having a rocket explode up my bum though, maybe that one is white. Why don't we meet in the middle and say grey then.

VZ_342 Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 I like the meme-death scene: freeze frame what killed you a split-second before death, a slow fade to black, and “YOU DIEDED” in grayish letters slowly fading in... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guessing it depends on many variables and which parts of the brain dies first, problem is no one ever comes back.

METEOP Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 I like the 'shellshock' effect where all sounds are muted except for a faint whining (from acouphene) and it could fade to black. Then, you would slowly get the image and sound back as some kind of spirit rising towards the sky. You could look around to see what was going on without having the heart-attack routine. Some would complain that it's not realistic, but hey, it is 'virtual' combat I expect to see my kids after a DCS session.

wrl11 Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 I fly VR and have never been bothered by the out of plane experience. Maybe because I am so pissed at myself for getting killed. But I remember (was this falcon?) where when the wingman goes down he screams. I would like something like that now because half the time I have no idea if my wingman wandered away or got shot down. 1st vAEW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
