Should the Head shots kill ?

[[FIN]-=Johnny=-]

Should head shot kill = YES.

Its wery frustrating when you shoot 3 guys in the corner of the house..... then comes g*d damn medic with "jeesus pen" and starts the vanilla medic style " dive, prone, jump etc. .. " then you cant hit him, AND IF you can hit him.... there is alllways some other guy who takes the medic kit and starts the same sh*t again... ((bit off topic, but, there is the epipen part =) ))

well well... in my opinion.... devs should just loose the "jeesus pen" (epipen).... OR reduce ammount of it, to 3 ? insteade of 8 ?.

I don't see where all this frustration comes from "omg i 1337ed a headshot at 500+ meters but he got revived, oh noes!".

Usually when my squad engage another squad we try to fire & manuever so that if they don't run away they will be eliminated. Of course our squad also have a chance of getting annihilated depending on how the situation works out. I don't see any problems with how it is now.

How about the fact that it's utterly unrealistic, realism being one of the concepts the MOD is based upon ?

Then why not put the player in a wounded state after taking a bullet?

That's more than enough of a reason, I concur. I vote "YES" on this.

Far less of a reason to keep your head down when an epipen can fix a .50cal bullet to the noggin.

...they do

[Axel]

I meant wounded as in lying on the ground being "wounded"

I know the engine prohibit realistic damage, but one shot kill in the head and three shot (5.56) to the body to even get a target down seems abit off to me.

I would love to see non headshot hit = wounded, headsot = dead though.

Well you still have to maintain a certain balance between gameplay / realism. So far, this is not bad at all, except of course for the revive system / non lethal headshots

I say the people have spoken. Almost 94% yes.

That's exactly what I'm saying a decent balance would be nonheadshot "wounded", headshot "dead" or 2-3 shot in the body to get the guy down or one to the head to get him down.

Stressing the headshot is not a good idea in my opinion, even though it's realistic, so is the fact that if you get shot in any part of your body, you will most likely go down.

Sigh.. You get shot in the noggin, You`re dead, not anymore of this "Blimey, Say good medic Sir, I seem to have found a .50 with my forehead.. Whoud you square your Starlight ass over here and stab me in my left ham with that magical pen of pixie dust and carebare stares?"
