So I played the game for quite a while and have to say that head shots are pretty useless.
I have a 50cal sniper and I can one hit enemies with body shots, but not with head shots because the first head shot just removes the helmet...
There is no way one would survive a 50cal no matter what armor he wears
This needs some adjustment
Even on Elite enemies Armor Piercing Rounds will instantly one shot kill them every time in my experience
i don't even upgrade my sniper either
Realistically speaking a sniper round that misses but flies by someones head would rip their face off from the force of the bullet alone, but the thing you have to remember is that this is a video game and they wanted there to be a reason for people to use Armor Piercing Rounds.
Realistically shotguns should have an effective kill range of 50 to 60 feet but they never do in videogames
This is for the sake of balance
The mechanics of their shot damage is rather sucky.Originally Posted by JronMasteR Go to original post
