Honestly, stabbing someone when they're down and having them get back up immediately doesn't make a lot of sense to me. A lot of people also complain when I revive them if they die withing 5 seconds of being revived (even though that gives me another 20 seconds to revive them again, and another chance at saving their prototype suit).

People also don't like the fact that they can't choose to be revived or not since most logistics will revive even when the icon isn't flashing.

So I was thinking...what if when you stabbed someone, it just reset the timer back to 20, but didn't immediately bring them back up. Instead, the player who is down then has another 20 seconds to decide whether they want to get up or give up. Giving up doesn't give you another death, but instead lets you terminate your clone. At the end of the 20 seconds, your player will automatically get up and be revived. (unless it is a better design for the clone to be terminated)

When you stablize someone, you should get 30 points. When the revive is successful (say when the player decides to get up), you should get the other 30 points. This way, if a player tries to revive someone in the heat of battle, and the player stablized decides not to be revived, then the person who stabbed them would only get half of the 60 points. This encourages players to use the injector more strategically.

I think that is a badass idea

New idea:

Everyone should be able to have the ability to stablize, but it takes longer if you don't have an injector (5 seconds instead of just stab and you're up.)
