You guys ever wondered what this game would be like if it had ragdoll effects? That would be SWEET!

It would also be cool if I could sprout wings and fly, but unfortunately, restrictions in the world make it so that this is impossible.

It can't be done because ragdoll effects require physics, and as far as I know physics do not exist for Star Wars Battlefront 2. I've seen a lot of things thought impossible made to work in some form by the brilliant minds here on GT, but I'm pretty sure ragdoll effects are one of the few absolute impossibilities.

yeah, thats right but i think havoc just wanted to say that it would be cool if there were ragdolls, just like would be cool if battlefront 3 had been released last year.

In computer physics engines, ragdoll physics are a type of procedural animation that is often used as a replacement for traditional static death animations :wink:

Think of MW2 when your shot by a pistol, you break every bone in your body and fall over.

yeah, because the projectile has such an impact that it breaks every bone.
no, seriously, regdolls just simulate a lifeless body even though that always looks a bit cartoony.

I don't like ragdoll myself. If you look at Battlefeild 2 as a prime example, it just looks too fake.

Ragdoll deaths like the way people die on The Force Unleashed?

Those look too fake.

Have you ever seen a person get thrown at a wall by an invisible force? I tell you, it looks totally real.
