I really REALLY like the dismemberment. But I think the blood is a little too over the top. They're have armor but they spill liquit like they're a wet sponge. Plus since the armor doesn't get dirty from all the blood, it just looks weird in my opinion. The idea is amazing, but the blood is just too distracting for me, I wish there was a version with only the dismemberment. Still, great work tho

great work

@wmafranz Thanks! Ill look into the headshot issue, there arent meant to be any difficulty changes. I’ll take a look and see if I’ve accidentally changed some of the damage multipliers.

Ok so I tried the mod, just one thing- When I would shoot the troops in the head, they seem to take way less headshots to die, which I feel makes the game too easy. Not a big deal as installing Merciless over it gave me roughly what I wanted, but assuming this IS part of this mod, and not a weird issue on my end, a console variable to disable the health changes would be great!

That being said, the mod in general is fucking sick, and I love it. Especially the physics "head flaps" when you blow out their brains. Explosive damage is listed as a planned feature it seems, but even now it's excellent, the first time I hit the valve on a grunt and the upper part of his torso blew up in a separate way from the headshots, damn that was cool. Shotgun is even more endlessly satisfying to use now, and the grenade/gas can carnage is addictive.

Would love to see this get continued development! Can't wait to see what you cook up if so, and IMO if there is a best HLA modder rn, you're it!
