Modify ROGame.ini

Note: Expect a significant framerate drop as bodies pile up!

Step 1: Navigate to:

C:\Users\<UserName>\Documents\My Games\RedOrchestra2\ROGame\Config

Step 2: Open ROGame.ini in a text editor ( Notepad / Wordpad / Notepad++ )
Step 3: Search for the line:

FXLifetimeMultiplier=1.000000

Step 4: The lifetime of corpses and gibs is 30 seconds by default. Setting FXLifetimeMultiplier to 2.0 will make corpses last for 60 seconds. To have corpses last for 5 minutes, change the line to:

FXLifetimeMultiplier=10.0

Step 5: Save your changes to ROGame.ini, and play the game!
