Turn off blood

[scarfacemperor]

Why not having an option of turning blood on/off, if you don't want your little sister to be shocked by 2-3 red pixels...

The processing powed used by blood is AOS is negligible. And 99,99% lag in this game is caused by bad connection between players and server. If you don't want any lag, make sure your internet connection is ok, and play in servers with low-ping

As an option, this would work, but judging by the computer specs needed to run this, I doubt you need it for that.
It's also the least laggy/telltale/YOU HIT HIM IN ALL CAPS/ sign to show you hit them.

Something that some people don't notice about the blood effect is that you don't see it unless you can see your enemy.

So, it gives you a risk for attempting to see whether or not you hit your target.
For example:

If I shot at somebody twice. Now, I have a choice to make in a split second.

Remember I said shot AT somebody, and not simply shot.
Meaning, I don't know if I hit them.

Now, I can either continue to shoot in the open, and see if I hit them, or leap into cover, and stay safe to make another move.
This gives a bit of risk to basic things we take for granted in other games. Such as CoD. (Oh, god, why'd I mention CoD for a point?)
I enjoy the blood feature, and I think it should stay in the game.

How about a little red colour cross on the crosshair when you hit someone?I think thats pree awesome.

Long story short:
Blood is hard coded. You can't turn it off. But +1 for toggling on and off.

It wouldn't reduce lag much at all. It's fine. Try a different server, or making a sandwich and coming back.

Yeah the blood shouldn't cause too much lag at all really. And as a lot of others have already stated I use it as a how to know that I've hit a target. Of course they could do other things to show you hit a something like others have stated. But I don't know if its worth it to them to go through all the trouble..

HERP DERP Y U SUGGEST THIS BAD IDEA IF YOU DONT WANT BLOOD AND GORE GO PLAY MC!

It won't reduce lag, because it's a flat voxel.
People nowadays play games, but don't know how they work -.-

On topic: I dont realy care as long as i can turn it on
