Death occurs when a player's health points drop to zero, resulting in a kill. There are several types of kills that can be inflicted either by players or by the environment. A death yields a range of points to the player or players who dealt the killing blow and adds one point to the victim's death count.
Upon death, the player's point of view is briefly shifted to third person, as the class they were playing either turns into a ragdoll or gibs, depending on the nature of the death, and drops their weapon along with a medium ammo crate. The name of the player and their respective killer is displayed in the recent kills log on the upper right corner of the HUD, along with the kill icon of the respective weapon used by the killer. After death, the player is placed in the respawn cycle and must wait a certain length of time before rejoining the game. During this time, the player will temporarily enter spectate mode, unless instant respawn is enabled on the server.
In Mann vs. Machine mode, a player's death is broadcast to all teammates via a sound cue.
