    I think the problem isn't with the head shots being too powerful, that makes perfect sense. To me it seems like body and leg shots don't do enough. Like the one guy said we are using 7.62 and other made for killing people ammunition and it still takes 4-5 round to down someone with a normal damage weapon. If you pay attention to the damage log when someone kills you it evens says that the bullets are doing 19-30 damage depending on the weapon. I don't care who you are or how much armor you're wearing if a bullet smashes your knee cap, you're eating the floor. So i say keep the head damage the same and up the damage to the body.

    I also have a hypothesis that the time to kill in this game is very comparable to that of Black Ops 3 with the difference being that in R6 we aren't jumping up and down so our shots seem to be more on target. I would like to see if anyone post a video to compare. Try to use similar weapon types and close to the same range without using head shots. Let me know what you guys think.

    Killcams aren't accurate. Check their AMA on reddit.

    Might be fine the way it is for CoD or something, but not for a Tom Clancey game.

    No there isn't. There's no pull at all. If there is it's really really slight, and wouldn't make the kind of killcams we're seeing either way.

    The problem here is the balance and the kind of gameplay the current balance incentivises.

    They are accurate enough to show us what the player does, which is squeeze the trigger and wave, which is the whole problem. You don't even have to have the killcam to see it.

    headshots are usually not random. This is a tactical shooter, a shot to the head would cause death. A lack of head shot would make this game very noncompetitive.

    I am seriously frustrated that R6S attracted all the teenage COD players rather than the competitive CS Go players which the game should target.

    The only valid argument that you can make is that Ubisoft need to fix potential hitbox problems or any networking problems which they are currently working on.

    Nobody aims for the head; most head shots are just random hipfires and spray and prays.

    Who says they are accurate enough? You dex? Are you working at Ubi?
    Or Hatred?

    I always aim for the head and when i hit them, i get a kill. Problem? Sometimes the killcam shows i was hipfiring and some other times it actually shows what happened. Stop complaining.

    Someone doesn't want their free headshots to go.
