What does this suggestion change/add/remove:
This suggestion would add a kill feed both in the top right and in the console for the sake of OOC purposes. It would also list the cause of death such as “User was shot” “User was stabbed” “User vaporized user” “User’s head was exploded” “User was blown up” “User was gassed” “User committed suicide” (last one would be an all-encompassing one for deaths like cyanide, poisonous chems in a flask, jumping into acid, going through Tesla gate etc.)
It would not list the name of who killed them as that could stop people from being able to kill folks without having to worry about someone finding out that, say, someone executed a civilian. Then their reputation would be tarnished for an OOC thing when it should be that their reputation gets tarnished for an IC thing like being caught in the act or caught on “camera.”
Possible Positives of the suggestion (At least 2):
The positives of this suggestion would be that it makes it easier to know if a certain RP situation (such as an AOS/KOS) is definitively over without having to go to a sit over it every time. Also it would just be a neat addition to know who’s killing who. Always cool to see the killfeed go crazy when someone throws a bomb into a crowd of players.
Possible Negatives of the suggestion:
The negative of this suggestion would be that it creates more opportunities for meta gaming.
Based on the Positives & Negatives, why should this suggestion be accepted:
I can only speak as an IA main though I’m sure others would agree, it’s very annoying to corner someone and have them tell you “I already died you can’t arrest me” then have to decide between just letting him go because maybe he’s telling the truth or taking him to a sit because maybe he’s lying.
For these reasons I think this really could benefit server health. Less sits, less arguing, more time spent focusing on the game.
