Does the amount of people you kill and/or knock out change the ending in Bioshock Infinite’s Burial at Sea part 2

No, which makes me feel a little bit sad.

There is only few cosmetic changes (for example with like with Cornelius Slate) but you can't change ending as far as I know.

From Gamespot forum...

Look up for the Gamespot Lounge interview with Ken Levine, he says that 2k wanted multiple endings but he said "nope".

Also you can watch on Youtube interview (4 - 6 min) how Ken Levine say that they wanted to "make player experiance that he had to make choices" but also he tells that this choices not change plot.

There is certainly a limit to the number of corpses/lockboxes in an area. I am not aware of any way to increase this limit.

Corpses will automatically decay (regardless of method of death, although disintegration tends to produce a lockbox immediately) over time into lockboxes. The older corpses/boxes seem to disappear to make way for the newer ones, in my experience. They will disappear without having been looted.

The easiest place to test this is the combat sequence at the Good Time Club. It's a long engagement in a relatively small area, and there are a lot of enemies, with breaks between waves to explore a bit.

The first wave here has a Fireman enemy, and I didn't have time to go loot his corpse between waves. By the time I'd cleared the next wave of enemies, the corpse and lockbox had despawned. There were also several enemies that I took down at a distance whose bodies had disappeared by the time I had a chance to go to where they'd died.

Enemies also drop their weapons separately from their corpse/lockbox. These tend to despawn somewhat slower, but they will still despawn over time.

The "bigger" bad guys tend to drop better loot - things like 80% health kits and the like. If you have a moment, it pays to loot these guys ASAP.

There appears to be a limited amount of persistence when changing zones. Sometimes I can exit an area and then turn around and come back and still find some stuff lying around, but it tends to disappear quickly. There are also times when zones you've been to before change or are restocked with enemies, and this seems to reset/remove any corpses or lockboxes.
