Glad to see some movement and positivity surrounding this game again! Recent PvE footage really makes me look forward to the release. Here are a couple of random thoughts:
- I think it might be nice if sometimes a civilian or suspect would surrender spontaneously (ideally with dialog) on seeing/proximity with SWAT, or when overwhelmed. Feels a bit gamey if they have to wait for you to shout at them, and otherwise would fight to the death.
- Wounded animations (and maybe dialog again) for surrendered/arrested suspects would be cool. I've seen a couple of trigger-happy streamers accidentally shoot a suspect right as they're giving up, and they then just sit there with their hands up, unfazed by the bullet hole in their chest lol.
(I've also seen a lot of trap deaths. I think they're a super cool mechanic but hope they're not everywhere - I think in Elite Force only a couple of missions had traps at all, where it was thematically appropriate. Those are some brave criminals rigging multiple doors with bombs inside a house full of junkies!)
