I thought there would be no one shot kills in this game, but from the wiki
“Unlike all other Weapons in the game, the Barnett is capable of delivering one-hit kills unbuffed when shooting opponents in the head. It is possible for the Barnett to kill a Light Body Type when shot in the chest and Medium Body type when shot in the head.”
Now i am definatly NOT playing light type, and i am debating wether to just Forget about medium aswell. the chest is A big target.
I could have sworn I was one shot yeseterday as a medium. I guess this explains it.
ya the barnett is splash damage’s little secret. you have to have 2 extra health pips as a medium to survive a headshot from one

kill or incompasite (sorry cant spell that word)
Hey, I’ve heard that shotgun could one-shot anyone up close, except for heavy body type. Is it true?
Won’t matter much if you are a heavy since by the time it takes to get out of the way you will have been hit one more time. At least.
Hell rtcw/et had the panzer. In the hands of the right player half your team could be “one-shotted” and wait almost half a minute to spawn if you were unlucky.
Not to mention timed airstrikes (goldrush axis spawn anyone?) and one shot landmines.
Back then there was no slidetackes either to remove someone blocking the exit to your spawn.
With all that, ET was still a blast of a game.
So yea, i don’t consider the once in a blue moon headshot such a big deal.
I’ve got nothing wrong with 1 shot kills, but I guess I’ve played CS for so long you get used to it. The maps look pretty enclosed [I haven’t played the game as I’m EU] but I was thinking having a sniper that could only kill in 2 shots in close quarters would be pretty useless.
I’ve never had a problem with snipers on the PC, but I guess the auto aim on consoles is a different story, just remember quick peeking is your friend :).

If you play as light and stand still long enough for someone to get a headshot then you deserve to be killed.
People can get headshots on moving targets. Most people can’t(like me) but there are some pretty amazing snipers out there.
They are few and fair between, considering how much you can move about in this game it makes it even harder.
That’s so true! The whole point of a light class is to keep moving. Plus, those rifles are so hard to use and have such a low fire rate.
I one shotted alot of meds and light bots on easy as a heavy with a shotty, the mossington or w/e but it was upgraded and im not sure if they were buffed, health wise.
SD seems to have lied about alot of things, the more time that passes by the more problems Brink has, not all major problems mind you.
