In GERA when you take damage, you recover health after several seconds. How come this happens? This isn't a complaint I'm just curious.

[ryan113911]

as all of you kno ea games does not like to make M rated games, so it couldnt be blood. i think they chose blue sparks because if a bullet were to hit semi-metal armor, depending on the type of bullet, it would produce a blue spark. think about it:

dr no's army wers metal armor, and so do some of goldfinger's thugs. i actually tried this while at my cousins house yesterday. i fired a 9mm bullet into a piece of metal in his backyard, and the spark was blue. its also like how sometimes the gunflash is blue instead of yellow.

but i have noticed something. when i shoot metal, there are red sparks. do you think they could have accidentally been switched?

[Defender007(2)]

as all of you kno ea games does not like to make M rated games

Quite true.

I agree with your thought completely. Though there are questions.

1. What king of 9mm weapon did you fire?
2. What kind of metal was it?
3. where are the red sparks?

If I ever find them, I'll check them out.

Isn't it stated in the game that Dr. No's men have been equipped with high-tech armour and that that's what the sparks are?

Doesn't really explain why the armour doesn't work though does it? Can't be all that high-tech.
