"But remember... it is a game. Game's are supposed to be fun. If you think that blood is an integral part of the fun gameplay..."

I do actually. Blood would be fun AND realistic. Isn't that what this game is supposed to be? Anyone who thinks blood is NOT considered fun, shouldn't be playing a WAR fps game in the first place, and certianly wouldn't have enjoyed a movie like Saving Private Ryan.

"I've mentioned this before in another post, but the only time you would really see blood is when you shoot someone in a bare, exposed flesh area, or the head. If you shot someone in the mid-section, you'd actually see a puff of dust because the blood would get caught in the clothing."

Well then only have blood if you shoot someone's exposed skin. I'm not saying that there should be blood where there WOULDN'T be in real life, and I think seeing a puff of dust if you hit somebody in the midsection would look realistic, but seeing just a puff of dust when you hit somebody in exposed skin, like the head, would just look silly. So how ARE you going to handle headshots? Also, if you hit somebody in the midsection, will you at least see a hole in the uniform after, or just a puff of dust and then nothing?

"...and it also makes the game available to a greater audience seeing the violent content wouldnt be there."

It's WAR. It's SUPPOSED TO be violent. Just the idea of killing people is violent. Little kids shouldn't even be playing war games IMO. They should at least have an option in some .cfg file to turn on blood if you really wanted it.
