Better Water Mechanics. [Added Poll]

[Frostified]

I think water could be improved, here are my suggestions:
1) Submerging under wate
When in water, if you crouch, you can go under and sneak around in the water undetected. You can resurface by releasing the crouch button. And to not make this OP:
2) Oxygen Bar
When you are underwater, you have an oxygen bar that will deplete slowly whilst you are underwater. If it runs out, you die.
Your oxygen bar will refil itself when you are above the waters surface.
3) Player bobs up and down on surface of water slightly when still, and more when moving.

I wouldn't like this, makes water camping even easier.

Water shouldn't be a place where you want to be.

Yes, water is an obstacle, not an aid.

I just wanted to add some more espionage to the game, but I see where you two are coming from.

[Space101]

It is obvious Ben doesnt want you to be anywhere water, 'cause
1. your footsteps are louder when you're in water, even louder when sprinting thus making you a easy target.
2. well, I dont really have a number 2

And I'll say yes. This'll make water camping more difficult.

I think using the water should have some drawbacks as well, so if you do submerge, you have a very limited oxygen bar of lets say 15 seconds worth, whereas when it is fully finished it takes 3 minutes or so to return.

Also when you get out of the water, you should not be able to move around fast, so walking and running should be slower for a good 3-5 minutes, as the water is weighing your clothes down as your clothes are drenched, and your not as fast, as well as squelching sounds perhaps, as wet clothes rubbing against each other or dripping water sound.

already suggested by me

[Paratrooper]

Can't shoot while on water higher than one block.

[Priok]

yes, diving and an oxygen bar would be great.

also, certain depths, so you can have swamps(like now, pretty much)

[gamax92]

If water health damage becomes official, then I say YES.

[Moonkey]

Relating this to real-life: You would be WAY to heavy underwater and unable to swim. Maybe crouch underwater and you can't move but if you get bumped into you rise from the water + you can't use your weapon like sprinting. About air... When you run-out your guy loses 10 health every second. To simulate drowning.
