I wish others could see dead bodies( and also have physics stuff apply to the body), it's always kinda cool to see... *adds to Joeyz's never ending list of suggestions.)

I beleive you can. after you die dont hit the fire button so you evaporate or whatever. If you dont hit the button your body lays there twitching in some cases lol.
now if other players see it im not sure but I do it all the time I jus lay there when dead lol

I don't think other players can see it because I believe someone once was telling someone else where their body was and they obviously couldn't see anything that resembled a mangled corpse.
Sometimes a crazy move is the best move.

at the point of death the physics goes all out client side so it looks different to each player i believe.

Also if you were not near them when they died they wont be there.

At least this is how i think it works.

they probly found that it isnt neccisary for any gameplay reason so it remains client side

First off, Nice meme picture d=)

Second, Physics is client side anyway. It's so the client can scale up or down the processing to compensate for their machines. Mine's on low for example, so there's not a lot of movement in the ragdoll. Bodies also tend to say for about 2-5 seconds for the other players, but about 10 for you d=P

depends if you let your "deathcam" at your body and see it ragdolling 5 minutes till wave ends or if you klick next player to view...

about that clientside thing i have a question, i see my death body, on other pcs it disapeares (allways, or did you ever notice 15 dead player-bodys in the map when oyu run around? me not). some days ago i had the luck of a vortex near my dead body, it was sucked in, spinned around and spitted out at the end. so, now the question is, is this only a nice to view clientsided "nearby-effect", or does my, for others invisible, but still (existing and) ragdollin dead body, "manipulated" by vortex, causing troubles to the server or other players (i mean lag/error-like) ??? (like the allways appearing 1017 ragdol-messages in log-file)
