M24 sniper
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?

It was probably just a hit box thing anyway.

Re: M24 sniper
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?

Re: M24 sniper
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

yeah like that's a sensible course of action.communistman wrote:Sniper kits should be halved from what they are now.

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.Hitperson wrote:yeah like that's a sensible course of action.

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!)

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

I'm not an expert but.. i think that a 7.62mm bullet crossing through your brain would make you die...communistman wrote:Are you sure? That sounds kinda ridiculous.
in pr, headshot by sniper rifles = wounded state, you can be revived...weixman wrote:WTF i thought sinper shot to the head in PR is dead dead for sure ????:

Re: M24 sniper
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 )llRvXll wrote:I'm not an expert but.. i think that a 7.62mm bullet crossing through your brain would make you die...
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.llRvXll wrote: in pr, headshot by sniper rifles = wounded state, you can be revived...

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.communistman wrote: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!)
