have you noticed that when a rebel or imperial kills someone, they will often go to their dead bodies, and shoot it with their pistol? this is kinda dumb, becuse they do this even if your in their face, and yes it's funny, but it's.... stupid.

Yea. It gives you the nice chance to shoot them in the back.

Yeah, it's like they want to make sure your really dead or somthing, and not just faking...

i've only really seen rebels do that and i must say that was a nice thing to add on to be more realistic although it goes wrong when it's a single soldier doing it in a room full of aware imps, wouldn't you want to do that to someone who took over your home planet?

I bet they saw the footage of the clones slaughtering Aayla Secura on Felucia. ;)

No, they were doing "other nice things" to the warm dead body of Aayla Secura... :3

Well, wearing a Jedi Pelt is way cooler than a wookiee pelt...

How is any kind of pelt cool?

Probably, can you really blame them though? I mean if I'm a clone trooper/stormtrooper/ battledroid/ other minor grunt and I manage to kill a jedi, i'm making sure they arn't faking. Don't want to end up with a saber through the back.

Don't want to end up with a saber through the back.True. Very true, though I'm sure battle droids would know if their target is destroyed.

I can assure you that's nothing compared to what else is muttered on this forum. ;)

There are way to many life-realistic things that they left out in this game to think to put in "shooting your enemies to make sure they're dead". In the real star wars universe, there are no such things as command posts and one shot with a blaster rifle kills most soldiers headshot or no.

I found what he said childish and distasteful, and not funny in the slightest.

Well, Maybe they are trying to "imitate" how players sometimes act online, though real players usually just spray their name on the spot instead.

It might be funny if all stormtroopers carry a spray can with their own Imp Logo though.

@Fate's decision, if it didn't have CP's it wouldn't be a battlefield ripoff, like D'OH:D
And you must not have any skill with my sweet 1337 blastomatic award rifle;)

I kind of like having that feature....Am I the only one who does it to <_< >_>
It adds to the atmosphere:D

And as for Aayla (I did laugh by the way;)) it's possible, but if it's mainly the rebels I'd think they are more concerned over the Princesse abduction by Vader, or they were angry for a really long time.

Aside from necrophilia and corpse donning, has everyone considered the possibility of BBQ I mean those M.R.E.'s have to taste like cardboard after being on the frontlines for a few battles.

Well, corpse donning is done by quite a few in starwars... even Boba dons a wookiee pelt! DOn't tell me a twi'lek is more sacred. I will trust a wookiee more any day.

Back to topic, I think AIs shooting at corpses once in a while is nice, but ignoring being shot at is just a bit too much.
