Not a absolute solution but could help alleviate the "rez-WP fishing"
[SUGGESTION:] Give the WP bonus of base +60 only after the patient has lived ten seconds or more.
Ofc the real fix would be to get rid of the damn worthless kill mail screen and keep your PoV still in your eyes until you [hit the] bleedout. but that's been suggested many times before. |

Well here is my previous 2 isk cents on the topic. https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=783026#post783026 Note the date was May 10th.

I can think of two possible changes of the top of my head that might improve the system (apart from fixing actual bugs of missing icons, etc): 1. We always show the bleed out icon, but with some ammendment or color change if the player actually calls for help. 2. We allow you to configure automatic "call for help" when in bleedout.
What do you think?
ANSWER TO CCP DRACO'S QUESTION: 1) Always show a 'Bleeder Icon', but DO give it a different color when the bleeder calls for help!
This way logi has a way to know that the person is more likely not to suicide just before reaching him. It's the way to know that the person is interested in revive. Color change for 'ask for revive' is good - the person is actually signaling his friends. So why hide it?
IDEA: Somewhere up was good idea about accepting/not accepting revive. I further improve it: - When you receive a revive, give some three( as suggested?) seconds to choose whether to instantly (o) Suicide (x) Get Up Suicide because we are clone troops with suicide minibombs in our brain, so that's an option. - After 3s time, if no selection, Get Up. - if you get up, your reviver gets +60WP. - If you decide to suicide after all, your 'reviver' gets +30WP for Revive attempt
FEEDBACK: After being gunned down, we should be in first person view with some graphical effects of pulsing blurry red vision etc. We should NOT be able to rotate (much) on the ground so bleeders won't become intel feeding temporary scouts. We should not go to killcam (whatever) following our killer because of said intel giving things and immersion breaking. while in 1st person bleedout view, we should have options: (o) Suicide (x) Call for medic (square) View death info ("lossmail") (triangle) View overview map (not sure if that's a good idea. Issuing SQ orders while bleeding was kinda stupid. Maybe we don't need that) |

The quick fix will let you wait on the kill screen, the icon will show right away.
We will also look into what we can do with these other suggestions:
GÇóOffsetting the kill screen, and/or allowing it to be toggled on/off. GÇóAdding a remaining bleedout timer/indicator to the bleedout icon so they know if it's worth running over. GÇóSome kind of indication, color, flashing, or other, to indicate that you really want to be revivied. GÇóAllow "call for help" from the kill screen. GÇóKEROSIINI-TERO's list of other suggestions. GÇóImprove the location of the icon vs. the corpse.

NEW suggestion derived from Dracos list "GÇóAdding a remaining bleedout timer/indicator to the bleedout icon so they know if it's worth running over. "
[SUGGESTION:] The 'man bleeding' icon should have the circular "time left" timer running around it. The same you'll see in Dust when spawning or in Eve with new Crimewatch. |
