Beating a Dead Player	comment	So your life bar is down to its last sliver, or maybe you're a One-Hit-Point Wonder. You're going along, trying to be careful, and BAM, something kills you. You fall down dead. It'll be a second or three before a mercifully-invincible replacement flickers into existence, or the screen fades out and you appear back at the last checkpoint, or, if that was your last life, anyway, the big Game Over. But, not content to celebrate over your fallen corpse, they just keep attacking it. What are these guys doing? They're Beating A Dead Player. It can make you wonder if they're vainly trying to Make Sure He's Dead, perhaps they can somehow remember your cruelty towards them? It's notable that there are multiple different versions of this. There's just lazily programmed games in which it's blatantly obvious that people keep on shooting at you even though, heh, you just exploded or something. Many older games do this, as there often wasn't enough room to program them to do anything else. Some games do it right and on purpose, with the enemies walking up to you and delivering a coup de grace or celebrating their victory with a few potshots. Then there are games in which people can do this themselves. Like fighting games, in which before the end of a round or something, one guy will still be mid-air and you can land a couple of hits on them. Some multiplayer games reward you for this with a Surplus Damage Bonus. Often combines with Ragdoll Physics in amusingly gory ways. May also apply if you're in one of those outdrive-the-cops games, and they stop you... but that doesn't stop them from ramming you repeatedly for good measure. Related and comparable to Pummeling the Corpse.

Beating a Dead Player / int_187d5707	comment	Devil May Cry: This is used to a limited degree, but it's responsible for why Dante has many death animations. If you get down to a sliver of health and then get hit by certain particular enemy attacks, instead of just fading to black, you're treated to a cutscene of the enemy tearing you apart in some creative fashion. This happens under normal combat circumstances as well, because enemies can still attack you just after you're already down.

Beating a Dead Player / int_229ba2b8	comment	Shadowrun: Eviscerating your opponent's corpses is actually a tactical decision. The magic present in the universe of Shadowrun means that if you have the right spell in your loadout, you can resurrect your teammates. But if you beat up a corpse enough, that player will stay dead for the rest of the round. Odd example in that overkill is actually a productive use of your time if you're not in immediate danger.

In Mega Man 3, this behavior lets the player have a little insight on the inner workings of the game: die by falling in a bottomless pit, and all "home in on Mega Man" enemies suddenly move towards the top of the screen, where you died.

Beating a Dead Player / int_291e9857	comment	Dark Souls: Enemies will keep attacking you as if you are still alive until your body completely fades out of existence, then instantly stop. Notably, you can still be inflicted with Status Effects at this time. Usually this is no big deal, since you're already dead anyway and you'll be cured upon respawning, but then there's Curse. Getting Cursed instantly kills you and permanently cuts your health bar in half until you manually cure it, and the second part still happens even if the Curse wasn't what actually killed you. It can be very frustrating to be subject to a source of Curse after you die, watching that Curse progress bar slowly fill up but be powerless to move out of the way since you're currently in the middle of falling over dead, and praying that you finish dying before the bar fills up all the way. Fortunately, the only way this can happen is while fighting Seath the Scaleless, since the only normal enemies that can Curse you have it as their sole method of attack and can't actually deal damage themselves. Unless you deliberately lead one of those enemies over to some other enemies that can damage you, but at that point you frankly deserve whatever happens to you. You can also use this trope to your advantage while fighting the Four Kings. The Kings spawn one by one about a minute apart, and though they all share one boss health bar, they each have their own individual health bars and can be killed. The ideal strategy, of course, is to kill them quickly so that you are never fighting more than one at a time. If you keep attacking a dead King before his body disappears, even though he has no health left himself, you'll still do damage to the main boss health bar, meaning you'll be able to win the fight without even seeing a fourth or potentially even a third King spawn in.

One NPC you can summon as an ally early on, Father Gascoigne, will keep it up for noticeably longer than everything else does. Justified in that nearly everyone in the setting is literally addicted to blood and often violently insane as well. Because spilled blood has healing effects, the player will likely return the favor to the monsters in spades.

Beating a Dead Player / int_30940081	comment	Grand Theft Auto V parodied this with the in-game FPS Righteous Slaughter 7, which Michael's Dumbass Teenage Son Jimmy is a fan of. In reference to the aforementioned "teabagging" phenomenon, what we see of the game reveals that you can literally rape your enemies' corpses, complete with the announcer telling the victim that "you're takin' it in the can from al-Qaeda now!". During the mission "Meltdown", Jimmy, taking after what he does in his games, takes down the last mercenary threatening his family and proceeds to squat up and down over his face, telling him "yeah, you like that, don't you? Take it all!" — only to realize that, because he's cut the power and it's dark inside, he's actually teabagging Michael, forcing him to quickly explain to his horrified dad what teabagging is.

Beating a Dead Player / int_49ad83ee	comment	World of Warcraft battlegrounds include the feature of looting an enemies corpse for money and commemorative items while also preventing them from respawning at their corpse. The reward and inconvenience are relatively minimal, which just makes the message that a player took the time to do so even more insulting. The Flag of Ownership is a rare item which allows the user to place a flag on player corpses; said flag bears a thumbs down to drive the insult home. Due to its scarcity, players now use other in-game flags and banners for the same insult. Two items introduced in Pandaria allow corpses to be desecrated. A set of knives renders the corpse down to a pile of meat and bones while a torch sets it ablaze. The Death Knight ability "Corpse Explosion" was originally an offensive ability which also destroyed a corpse. The damage component was removed, but the ability can still be used to reduce a corpse to a small pile of meat and bone.

In TDM if someone got killed and their body's still there, someone, usually the killer, will shotgun the body into tiny gibs. CTL (Capture the Flag, but a player is the flag) has this when someone caught the leader since the game lets you snap their neck after the round is won. The No-Holds-Barred Beatdown execution (or Beat Them With Their Own Arm if you're Locust) could be this since the player is already dead as soon as someone does it.

These are usually the robot's Finishing Move, but sometimes lesser weapons have them too. On rare occasions enemies will have Dynamic Kills, but they're far more common on the player's side.

He's still hitting you with the leg as the scene fades out. The 2011 release has him revisit this Fatality. But instead of the camera fading out, he'll still be doing it until you hit continue or quit. Stryker's standard winpose in the game is him walking away from his opponent and throwing a grenade at them. All we see of the aftermath of the offscreen explosion is blood splatters flying on Stryker's face, implying that... well... he pulled off a Fatality without pulling off a Fatality. Kollector in eleven has a victory pose where he stuffs the defeated opponent in his Bag of Holding and walks off with them. Considering that some of his intros involve slavery, up to and including breeding, the fate of the defeated won't be pleasant.

Beating a Dead Player / int_c19c6efa	comment	Minecraft lingers on the "You died!" screen indefinitely until you manually press the "Respawn" button, and even though you don't leave a visible corpse, monsters will keep attacking the spot where you died until you've awakened elsewhere. This can have serious implications, given that one of the monsters that will do this is the creeper—if it explodes, not only will it leave a crater, it will likely destroy most of the items you dropped. Provided there are no creepers around, however, this can also be exploited in multiplayer — while the monsters that killed you are attacking your body, another player can slip by mostly undetected, allowing them to collect your stuff and get out of there, or proceed onward in your stead.

Typically with leg drops and suplexes. It doesn't result in injuries or lack of ability on the part of the victim afterward; it's just for fun. NHL games usually let you bodycheck opponents mercilessly after the whistle, including the legendary "check over the boards and into the bench\penalty box" animation found in some older games. In at least NHL 11, the whistle often signals the computer-controlled players to start checking each other (and player-controlled skaters) endlessly.

Beating a Dead Player / int_e5da4767	comment	Nioh: This can actually make a difference for ninjustu specialists, positive or negative. The Ninjutsu skill tree includes a buff called Quick-Change which, once per casting, allows the player to instantly recover with a small amount of health from any fatal blow. They still go through the death animation, but then reappear in a puff of smoke several feet above their body, which also places them above any enemy that is still trying to pummel their corpse. For smaller enemies, this gives the player the chance to stagger or even kill them outright with a descending strike. However, for larger enemies resistant to stagger, it's more likely that the player will simply be caught in the enemy's still ongoing attacks and killed all over again.

Beating a Dead Player / int_e9cb2780	comment	Gears of War: Done with weapon-specific, instant-kill executions. Gears of War 3 has a somewhat steady example when it comes to multiplayer. In TDM if someone got killed and their body's still there, someone, usually the killer, will shotgun the body into tiny gibs. CTL (Capture the Flag, but a player is the flag) has this when someone caught the leader since the game lets you snap their neck after the round is won. The No-Holds-Barred Beatdown execution (or Beat Them With Their Own Arm if you're Locust) could be this since the player is already dead as soon as someone does it. If a player is taken as a meatshield, they will usually have the respawn time countdown as soon as they are picked up. Besides that it's possible to have them shoot their own corpse.

Answering in the affirmative lets you look at whatever enemies killed you as they keep attacking your dead body. If you happened to have any explosives activated before dying, you can also look at them blowing up and rest in piece knowing whatever killed you is now also dead.

Beating a Dead Player / int_ef215943	comment	PAYDAY: The Heist: Enemies may continue to shoot at you after you've been downed (but able to fire your pistol) even if you haven't gotten their attention by shooting at them. The Bulldozer is particularly notable for doing this unless someone else is already shooting at them. Firing off a shot or two at the cops in this state will invariably cause most of them to turn their attention to you. Cloakers are liable to do this to players they've already downed too, which leaves them wide open to getting shot by teammates.

Beating a Dead Player / int_f891a20d	comment	Terraria the monsters will hover around the point in which your character died until you respawn. Since only a few monsters attack with ranged weapons (Like Gastropod's Pink Laser attack) and even those do damage by touching the player all monsters are basically "attacking the dead player". Odd since you don't actually leave a corpse; you do however drop a tombstone upon death but it will bounce around until it settles on a stable piece of land and the monsters still only hover the point where you died.

Beating a Dead Player / int_fa49fd7a	comment	Oracle of Tao has this, though only on certain circumstances. The game itself is programmed to switch targets as normal for spells and attacks, but a specially-coded spell (designed not to be reduced by armor, or be reflected) will possibly kill the character and then keep attacking because there isn't the proper targeting code (it's a flaw of the system, there's no Condition "if Hero is targeted"), so it has to be done using random numbers. In theory, the code is supposed to retry if the character is dead, but in some cases this is not what happens and the dead character is a valid target despite programming to the contrary. For that matter, the Stone condition and others that should disable party members from battle, don't actually count as dead. The character will be petrified only to continue being targeted by petrification attacks, and then get killed by a magical attack.

Some people even go as far as to purposely knock the characters off the stage entirely just to add insult to injury. Super Smash Bros. Ultimate: One of Ridley's victory animations has him rip apart a dead enemy... apparently, because a Team Battle victory reveals that he is merely scratching the ground.
