Nope. There is no area specific damage for weapons.

i think that we should lock this b4 bad things happen :scared:

OMFG NO HEADSHOTS!? WTF? SINCE WHEN!?? what about jetpacks? :lol:

[culkid]

there is always a patch that can fix it

[BLuE_ZeRO]

yeah umm the devs need to want to do it before they will. If they aren't putting them in now I doubt they will change something like that later on.

It�s not a mistake or and over site, it�s a deliberate design feature of the game.

It�s to stop people standing at the top of a watch tower with a Mini gun and spraying a crowd of guys in the distance.

Spray + Pray = Lucky headshots

No one likes being capped by some "jackhole" 6 miles away with a lucky headshot
(Think: large Counterstrike maps and a newbie with a Para, the heavy machine gun)

I personaly hate it because there is now no way to get a one hit kill against some higher armored guys(which pisses the hell ouatt me since I'm a sniper).. I just ant to be able to get infantry with one shot.. MAXs and peoepl in closed vehicles I can understand.. but open infantry I should be able to one hit kill with a bolt driver.. even if I need to hit their rihg tmiddle finger.. i need atleats one way... :mad: :mad: :mad: :nazi: :nazi: :evil: :evil: :evil: :borg: :borg: >:| >:| >:| >:| >:| :sniper: :nod: :sniper: :) :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :rock: :rock: :spam:

By now i belive that ur question was answered. No there is no headshot, no area specific damage, not even in Vechs. I think that they should add area spec damage for vechs at least. Shoot the engine and the shit should go down if its a plane. It should stall if its a buggy, tanks, hmmmm... hard to hit the engine but the turrents should be able to get messed up. Just an opinion.

Yeah its going to be hard to snipe in this game. Probably a good thing though seeing as how many awp-whores play cs.

[simba]

lucky headshots? LOL? So if there is lucky HS:S? I personally h8 no area specific dmg, tho I understand why they have no. Hs:s make the game more fun-fast kilz

[Hife246]

I like the idea.. just hate that u can't snipe as well as in most games.. even with skill.

[RCB_Ghost]

Jk2 (Star Wars: Jedi Knight 2 Jedi Outcast) is some of the best sniping you can find. I said some. I know there's other nice sniping capibilties in other games.
But JK2 doesn't have area damage, and I like it. Of course they have personal shields in that game :lol: .

Snipers are always pumped in FPS games, I'm glad they're finally getting the 'ole nerf bat to the brain that they deserve.

Standard armor goes down in one Bolt Driver shot, they said that somewhere...so aim for the naked people.

[BLuE_ZeRO]

Standard and agile I believe.

And people in infiltration suits. Good luck finding them though, although you could use that implant that lets you sense their presenceby listening for footsteps, don't know the range of it though. I would use the implant that tells you the person's name, health, etc. That way, you know if you can take out a more highly armored person. Oh it'll be sweet...

how many times have we answered this question? oh well, no matter what it will keep coming.

[Hife246]

yep

I think whenever someone joins, we should spam them with hundreds of copies of the FAQ. That'll help... maybe. :spam: mmm, spam... :drools:

I am not for one hit kill headshots, however I like region specific damage.

If I am fighting someone, they just spray at me, and I am taking my time to get good chest shots in, would the sprayer benefit more from increased chest damage or equal damage all around?.

Take away the increased damage for chest shots and the player with the better aim is penalized.

Having no region specific damage is better for spray and pray players than including region specific damage.

[Arshune]

Let's put it this way...in Counter-strike, the most notorious of ALL lucky headshot games, there are only two weapons capable of a one hit kill. The scout with a headshot, and the awp (this is assuming the target has armor, most of them are insta-kill without a helmet on). Yet, how many times do you die to lucky headshots in a session of CS? A lot. So headshots don't have to be one hit kills to throw things off. Simple fact-automatic weapons+headshots=BAD.

[Nightmare]

TR would probably have a big advantage over NC and VS if there was area-specific damage, because they'd be the ones getting all the headshots. The got rid of ASD because it would make for a more level paying field. We don't really need it anyways, just shoot the sucka.

[Jaged]

Here is the fundamental difference between these fourms and the official ones. A thread like this on the official fourms would have been a f*cking flame fest.

[Echo419]

jaged, thats a fucking tight sig, nice job.

[TimberWolf2K]

I'll agree with ya there, Jaged's sig is pretty Original. Lexington_Steele's too, never seen a Vertical Sig before :p

[Zatrais]

You can hit someone in the head and kill them.... perfectly possible. You won't do anny aditional damage by hitting someone in the head or anny other part of the body and you don't get anny more points by making a headshot tho.

[Destroyeron]

Yeah...but the TR will still down.

[NeoTassadar]

Jeez. I think this dead horse is not much more than a crater now. Just burn the chunks left and be done with it.
