what's ragdoll..and one thing i noticed gone is ground specular, no more shiny ground, or no more shiny metallic surfaces, ever see hang em high beta? a h2v custom map.
Ragdoll effect is basically a "realistic" death scene, instead of a pre-set animation, a ragdoll affected death is aware of its surroundings...so when a dead body hits a wall for example, it'll slump a little, as if it's sitting, instead of the usual "wicked witch of the west" effect you see on Counter-strike.
Don't be fooled though...some ragdoll effects are beyond horrible. For example, the ragdoll effect in Splinter Cell makes the dead bodies look like they're giving themselves an oral...you know what I mean. ;D
