About sniper rifle damage.

(Jahuu) #1

From RtCW for dummies:

Now you can check it from there or test it by yourself, but the sniper rifle scoped to head is not an instant kill like it should be. The reason is that in the beginning you have 100hp, but at battle sense 3 you get +15 and from 4+ medics on your team you get +40hp so that brings it to 155hp.

So therefore I propose that the damage made by K43 or M1 Garand, while scoped to the head should be 200 hp, as it does not matter how much it is as long as it kills with one shot.

Also I propose that the bodyshot damage should be brought to 70 hp, as it was originally designed to kill with two shots (50hp).

Yeah, bring the Artic on, make it pierce walls, and be more steady. :twak:

The players who want a game where you can actually see your opponent before he kills you, should go play warcraft3. [/sarcasm] :disgust:

Why are you so sure that this isn’t intentional? ET is not about realism.

Personally I don’t think it makes the sniper weapons less useful as a good player will get teh 2 shots needed to bring them down & if your first shot was a headshot u just need to hit teh body for teh kill. I’ve never hada problem since teh demo with teh sniper rifles & find tehm very effective, the only time i’ve had problems is takin down medics who keep med packing themselves. But eventually i’d normally get him after about 5-6 shots

I’d also like to add that never forget that if you hit teh target regardless of wether you killed him or not he is gonna be runnin around with 20hp or slightly more so it makes it easiar for your teammates to kill him. Most people overlook teh damage given & recieved in the stats it really shows who teh good players are, forget about kills. Field ops & panzers will always dish out teh most damage but its very funny to see how much damage you can give with a smg & nades. Damage given is represented by DG in green & damage recieved is DR in RED just like q3a & its many mods. I was on a server & some guy at teh end read out his kill ratio it was quite good but he had taken nearly as much damage as he had given but he was a level 4 medic so he could just pack himself up & from what i seen of teh game he was just playing rambo & not reviving teammates under fire which is teh normal reason medics take a lot of damage & its also the reason they get regen & extra health.

“Teh” I can understand because you’re trying to type quickly and its a common mistake. But “tehm” is just plain sloppy. =)

Well I make a huge lot of “qeu” instead of “que”, but it’s only an issue when writing in spanish. :smiley:
