M24 sniper

Post by Puslox »

Hellaoooww... I have a question about headshotting with the M24 in PR

Well, I headshotted an enemy, clearly, he was standing still for like 5 seconds, and when I shot him, he just ran for cover and tried to shoot me. I eventually killed him after 3-4 shots..

Fail? I think headshot multipliers should be increased. (not a suggestion)

So.. Is this supposed to happen?

I suggest you look up the definition of suggestion. (not a suggestion)

It was probably just a hit box thing anyway.

Did you wait 8 sec before taking the shot?

I am pretty sure you missed, I haven't had any trouble with the sniper rifles. It's a one shot "kill" to the chest and head.

Oh right, I didn't wait 8 seconds. But isn't that after you took a shot to make the accuracy go back to normal again?

Wait 8 seconds without pressing WASD, and wait 3 seconds after moving the crosshair onto the target as a rule of thumb.

Sniper kits should be halved from what they are now.


Not because of realism/balance, mostly because of the frustration of dealing with one :D

yeah like that's a sensible course of action.


the current situation is representative of both sighting in and the changes which would need to be done to adjust for things such as range and windage.

I think you completely misunderstood me, mate. I meant the amount of kits available to teams should be halved, because dealing with enemy snipers is frustrating.

It was a joke, really.

But it's ok, because I'm essentially just spamming so I can post on the suggestions board (need to get to 15 posts, I'm at 12!)

heashot = wounded
chest shot (In insurgents or Ofpor that doesnt use body armor) = wounded
chest shot on soldiers with body armor = damaged to black/white

I think that this is wrong... in real life 7.62 in the head = dead

I'm not an expert but.. i think that a 7.62mm bullet crossing through your brain would make you die... :rolleyes:

Im pretty sure that in PR headshot from sniper rifle means you are dead.

Maybe you was revived before, and then got killed by the sniper ;-)

If you don't belive me, test it... find a friend in shoot him in da face

It seems pretty OBVIOUS that any caliber received in the head will make you die, even if there is some people that survive headshot ( with a fugly head after )

Yeah and its had been stated while ago by R-Dev, generaly i love kill a guy, then wait, kill the medic, keep waiting, kill the guy that try to grab the medic kit... etc etc etc... i'm generaly able to wipe out a whole squad with that tactic.

I'm 100% sure that what you want to suggest is a re-suggestion or hardcoded, therefore I encourage you to make use of the search function, or check the Already Suggested Suggestions thread sticky in the suggestions forum.
