Wow, this thread got de-railed fast.
I have asked Bladekiller about this in 4.0. Tho i cannot recall exactly word by word what she told me. But the bottom line was: it has to do with rendering performances. Especially depending on the server settings on how long bodies/corpses stays.
So take the worst case scenarios: 32 slots servers (or even 64 slots are i heard some people 'brag' about their servers) full with everyone running around with funstuff and items; Those are lots of extra vertexes on the screen.

I could live without seeing a players head on the ground, but F1 to the idea of retaining the players gear when they die. It would be nice if the devs could shed some light on this, as I have often had the same thought, Amiga.

Krrrrrrrrrr! Crash is the sound of this thread derailing.
I always wondered where the head goes when my .50 DE round hits someone in the facial area.
Maybe the devs could reuse some of the internal organs models from when you get blown up in bomb mode?
Just to add the Brains Effect.

You mean like "instagib" stuff?
I always thought that would be more of a Nexuiz thing...
I thought it would be exaggerated enough to see a head fall off somewhere. An exploding head...well, no comment.
