Title: Dead Players What happens next to the Bodies.

What happens to the bodies?

I think for Humans that Tiny Dretchs should come and pick the body up and take it to the OM.

For Aliens i think they should Crumble up and disappear.

Ideas?

Sinking into the ground looked nice. (Until they fall through into the room below) Maybe a little green final fantasy style fade or a spark cloud like Jak and daxter? They look nice in games.  Then again, most games now days just have the body's vanish without any effects.

The aliens taking the body away would be cool, but what if they died in the middle of the human base? It would not look right.

Dead bodies should disappear with plasma effect or just fade out. Sinking no - it looks bad on tiny surfaces.

Bringing bodies to the OM as food is problematic and bloodthirsty :)

I'd either make it like in Quake 4 when you kill a strogg or just make them rot and decompose into thinner and thinner substance and disappear in the end.

What about the Aliens Breaking up and Crumbling into nothing?

And is that a yes to Bring bodys to OM?

In Dishonored when you kill someone a group with rats come and eat the body.
Your idea with a group of spiders who eat humans seems cool.

Hmm now that I think about it, that's pretty good. But what will aid the decay of aliens?

It IS a pretty good- if blood thirsty- idea. If its too blood thirsty, then I think a final fantasy fade away kind of death would pretty cool. I wonder if they will be ragdolls?

Death, people will step on them and it will crush them.

I guess it would be pretty nice to see Rotting meat, like from full body, to halfmeated body and then skeleton which will turn into dust?

there is only animation where skin buries into ground and skeleton stays. But the point was taken from the skin, meat etc. It should rot to a stage where the meat will fall off from skeleton.

It doesnt have to be so detail to be awesome. Just little bit of animation work and it's done.

Maybe aliens such as dretches could eat the bodies and heal much quicker, tyrants would probably need to consume one whole body to get back to full health.

alien and human bodies could be salvaged and or "dogtagged" to take off a trophy kill.

alien bodies could just disintegrate or something cooler.
