Maybe an additon to Warhorns where you get a special sound for achieving the kill through a headshot (people who complain about immersion do not use Warhorns anyway). Personally I vote for a "Heyooooooooo!!" (from Borderlands' Steve the Bandit fame)

Ya I usually have to ask also, but then I just go check my achievments.

Oh lord... Please no arcade-like text scrolling across the screen. The new rewards scrolling up on the bottom is more than enough already to break immersion - it'd be way to much to have "Headshot multi-kill" bullshit popping up all the time.

Can't you turn off the rewards scroll-text somewhere in the options menu? I thought I read that in the patch notes

Just do it like in Star Wars Republic Commandos.

As an aside, these two players were lousy shots.

It should play this audio clip.

[Kalimaster]

I've only managed to score a half dozen head shots over the course of a couple of months of play.

It's nice when you get one. Usually causes someone to throw a fit.

It's..simple. If you hit the target in the head and kill it that way, his head will vanish on the doll.

Best head shot I ever had was a JJing Heavy Metal. I loled, as it was a complete accident. I just meant to shoot his CT.

'Tis the status quo.

Some folks want a small pop-up text somewhere on screen, like when you blast off components and make kills.

Some people want a little epeen stroking?

I vote for this sound clip



And maybe a premium clip of

Its in the options menu. You can put it back to the old style.

Id rather we not have some cliche head shot report. It's un immersive and adds yet another piece of data the server or the client has to process.

Instead, I'd prefer cockpit kills come with a blood splat on impact and remaining as a damage decal. Maybe a soft, muffled scream for an added touch.

Like Mustafa from Austin Powers. "Ouch, you shot me!"

Sorry, just came to mind when you said that. Lol

So, if you strip the cockpit armor off, then attack with a Flamer...

"I'm not dead, just very badly burned..."

It's a cockpit...

I don't know how you'd word that kind of "shot" without making people giggle all the time.

Shot in the cockpit.

Yes... and why not?

[ZippySpeedMonkey]

NO.....


You want this go play Unreal....

This is almost as bad as the Warhorn request...

Bitching Betty could point it out with a simple "Headshot" before " target destroyed"

this would be easy enough.
