Adrenaline?

[Reno]

This is a very hard subject to look into thouroughly, mainly due to the fact that its very hard to simulate what is going to go through a player\'s mind as they are under heavy suppressing fire.
This is far easier to maintain for AI because you control everything they do through script, and the AI really arent consiquenced in anyway by hindering them based on the situation, or making them act more like people in a heavy fire fight.
Setting this up for people is a much harder situation that could ever pop up when making AI, because different people do different things. One player may duck and wait out the fire fight, while another might jump up and lay their own suppresing fire so others could move to flank.
Its possible to implement a slight \"Morale System\" in that being under fire for too long, more than just suppresing fire would lower the Avatar in game\'s ability to function, forcing the player to make a choice: either lay my own fire, and suppress the opponets, or try to make a move. Either situation could potentially be bad for a player, as that they could get killed. So say a player decides to stay put. Eventually their ability to fight would degrade(a nulled \"shellshock\" if anything) and the further they wait, the more the painful decision pushes at them, there by simulating(probably better than i could program manually)combat stress.
Its just and idea, but instead of forcing a player to lose the ability to fight automatically as they are suppressed as opposed to making them make painful choices could be bad.

Then again, this could all be just random mumblings
