Did you know that you can shoot someone while they're bleeding out so they can't be revived? Pretty sure that's all that final stand will result in.
We could let people continue to use whatever sidearm they had, but without being able to use the sights or reload. Maybe they can crawl around and try to suicide people with any grenades they might still have. Or just crawl toward the logi if we get the minimap indicator of where they are as suggested in the other thread. |

I've never played Modern Warfare multiplayer, but as I understand it it's a very "get shot twice and you're dead" type game, so spraying at someone close to you gives you a decent chance to kill them.
DUST isn't like that. You have shields and armor, so the guy doing his Final Stand will only kill you if you walk out in the open in front of him without letting your shields recharge. I wouldn't expect it to get a lot of kills from anyone but the completely unaware. |

Well remember, I said "sidearm". That means scrambler pistol or SMG. Logis don't even carry a sidearm, we just get a light weapon slot, so we wouldn't be able to Final Stand at all. I could see allowing light weapons (ARs, Mass drivers, etc), but definitely not heavies. I'm just not a fan of some special emergency weapon that you can only access when you're dying. If I had it I would've used it before I got shot to death.
We could ignore the shooting thing all together and just try to suicide bomb our killer. If a dying player still has a grenade let them pull the pin on it so they blow up themselves and, hopefully, their killer. Or maybe an alternate method of suicide where your suit blows up and damages anyone nearby. Don't use it on the logi trying to revive you!  |

It's called a magazine.
And no, no reloading or swapping. Hope your magazine was mostly full when you went down! |

The real reason this was even raised as an issue was due to the problem of people suiciding before a logi can get to them. When we have teams, comms, and expensive loadouts that people don't want to lose reviving will be a lot more common. If you're bleeding out in your 300k proto suit I feel pretty confident that you'll hang out for a while and pray for a logi-bro to come save you. |
