Call me twisted but I like to snatch the guards gun and then shoot them whilst they plead for their lives.
The idea recently came to me to go around a corner and then go back to them and see if they had started to run off, I was then going to follow them and kill them - well obviously, I'm mean what else huh?

Anyway, I think that one of them runs off on the level Area 51: Infiltration but most of them seem to just vanish.

What's all that about?

They also die after only a couple of shots in the hand or arm once surrendered as oppose to taking loads of hits when you are fighting the b*stards!

there can be only limited number of guards at the same time.
surrended guards do vanish if you go far enough from them to make the game more room to spawn fresh opponents.

Yeah, the guards that surrender disappear pretty quickly, compared to corpses. For corpses, there's a limitation on how many can be present at one time, but it's pretty high so if you play normally you don't notice them disappearing. Surrendering guards seem to disappear shortly after you're out of their sight, though. I guess it makes sense, that guy probably got out of there as fast as he could!

It's a shame....
