<div class="IPBDescription">Blood settings, Exploded Bodys Effects etc.</div>Sometimes I want to play this game when my 5 years old son was near me.
But I cant play beacuse of its real bloody effects.
And may be some of under 17 years old boys are alreafy playing this game in the world.
By the way there must be a adult check & setting adjustment
( this must be included all of the games i think)
e.g. These On/Off Checks would be great !
[ ] Blood Effects
[ ] Onos Digesting & Skull Explosion Effects
[ ] Pretty Alien Models ( For Childrens )
etc.

ns never had exploding skulls when i played. unless if you were playing on a gib activated server or somthing.
I like ns the way it is now, some blood effects when you're getting shot/shooting somthing, but its not too much.
And cute alien models? i say nay, altho it would be a bit interesting.
NS has specifically shied away from a gory game. The only blood present is:
- The decal when you shoot someone.
- The ORGY OF BLOOD (not!) when you successfully score a hit
If you're playing and you want the game to be 'kosher', you really should have decals turned off anyway, since occasionally you're going to get a 12 year old with a ###### spray -_-
If you think the orgy of blood when you score a hit is gory, keep in mind that you're also using guns/teeth to draw this blood, which is probably many times worse.
EDIT: By the way, any extra gore you spot in NS isn't built in, it's part of the server you're playing on.
The steam version also has a parental lock that I've never used.
What's not child friendly about the models?

I could imagine a big Care Bear replacing the onos and since skulks remember many on a dog anyway, they should be replaced with winnie-the-Pooh <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin-fix.gif" />
i thorgh this was about adding a more gorey mode, and i think thats actully a good idea. maby also a kids mode.
ie no blood and the skulks have blunt teath/gums <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tounge.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":p" border="0" alt="tounge.gif" />

yeah that would show the children. "oh daddy look, theres a carebare" "dady, what is the carebare doing" *child sees a image of a carebare fighting a human or eating him* "dady, why did the carebare eat a human?" dad:"oh ######!" but i would probably use those models myself, fun to play
I started playing this game when I was 13 (3 years ago) and i found the models in no way to be scary..... I mean common, your using guns.. isn't that already violent???
Sure there should be a gore lock... but to change models... that's just more work for the dev team. Exploding skulks.... who cares?<img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/confused-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="???" border="0" alt="confused-fix.gif" /> It's just a flash of light, theres no blood when skulks "explode".
infact, i found the overall atmosphere of the game rather cool; then scary.
I just don't understand. Obviously my view on the subject is that there should be blood, and gore if need be.
Young people who are not the appropriate age should not have access to this game let alone its mods.
If you choose to let your children play these games you should not ruin its original content to suit your needs, defeats the purpose of the game.
The Ratings are there for a reason. Use them.
Slider is a good idea. From no blood, to realistic bodys chopped in half, missing limbs etc.
It's better with no changes so that if a parent views whats on the screen when they are in the room, they can see what their child is really being exposed to, Then make a judgement call.
The problem really is most kids know how to Alt Tab these days, I know because I use to be one of them <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile-fix.gif" />
Half Life 2 is a mature rated title. The Game is based around violence of a science fiction fantasy.

I dont get this with gore locking, your basicly telling your kid "if u shoot at point blank range with a shotgun the other person will just fall to the ground" which isnt really the purpose. Instead have it on and see if they get scared so they decided if they wanna play or not themselves. Myself I stopped playing AvP because it scared the ish out of me when I was 11 or so (still does). And that wasnt even because of the gore, it was the games gameplay. Have a parental lock which remove the guns, now that's something which teach something.
I would totaly agree that most of the kids would send that game to hell, if they see bunnies, bears and all other animals hopping around.... <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/confused-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="???" border="0" alt="confused-fix.gif" /> If they want some carebear game, then they should play oldschoolyewllowcassetes or smthn...
what gory server were you playing on? o_o

But it's more like a large green gas is emitted from them and they fall over. It doesn't really seem like gore, or at least the caliber of gore we're used to.
Also, for my part, I have a 11 year old step brother who, on the occaisions when he's over at the house, follows me around religiously. So he ends up watching NS while I play. You want to know my primary complaint? Gibs? Blood? Aliens? You're kidding me. My primary complaint is the voice chat, because the game needs it so much and yet I can't have him listening to all the things they say over it.
What do I do about it?
Make. Him. Leave.
Great solution, amirite?
tbh its the alien-human conflict game where blood isnt' everywhere :s jezzz if you cant paly when you son is near you, tell him to go off or just w8 till he go, play with him (not computer or your carebear games which are designed for childs) or smth :s

Imagine a profanity filter on voice adapting to so many words and accents. Uber but unreal.

Actually, we've already got one. Its called "Admin". <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tounge.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":p" border="0" alt="tounge.gif" />
With or without the gore, it is as bad. Love of god, even "Powerpuff Girls" have more gore than this game. Even in the intro theres teeth, along with blood "blobs", flying across the screen.
Frankly, ive had hard time understanding how changing red blood with green "blood" makes it "ok", or whatever.
