Prove me wrong.

Risk/reward

Greater chance to miss vs. bodyshot, but higher damage potential. Only time it's not the case is if you're using a rocket launcher like a complete scrub.

are you mad that someone pulled a 360 on you?

stop getting shot and you wont die

stop presenting yourself as an easy target

Headshots kill people, so does cancer.

Headshots are literally RNG. I guess I wouldn't expect less from a board who defends CS:GO.
>>
I'd really like a game like Starsiege: Tribes but with all hitscan/fast projectile automatics removed from the game.

Instead you have more disc launchers, turrets, mortars, grenades, mines and basically anything that can't easily be exploited by an aimbot due to the air control jet packs provide. Also a whole slew of melee weapons: swords, gauntlets, hammers; axes, flails, etc. And of course all kinds of vehicles.

This to me is essentially the perfect competitive game. It's fast as fuck, it minimizes the ability to cheat through gameplay design and it's fun :^)

Why nobody has made it already is because we live a in shit world instead we get war games to brainwash retarded kids into becoming violent soldiers for the government.

Who said anything about CSGO.

In all games headshots are rewarding of fineese and skill.
Get good.

This thread is bait, and you're an idiot.

>realistic damage
Let's not get crazy here.
>>
HS are pretty much reddit: the hitbox to be completely honest
>>
Headshots are shit when the game promotes aiming for center mass and getting free headshots through recoil.

When they actually take aim or are pretty much required whether it be a weapon or to not get shit on then they're fine but there are obviously games it really should stay out of.

That's pretty much Tribes:Ascend outside of the sniper classes but last time I tried playing a long time ago nobody really played them anyways.

Taking a bullet to the face leaves you with generally very low chances of survival.

It will likely either fuck your brain stem, brain, fill your windpipe with blood and destroy your senses to escape for cover.
>>
headshots are a CRANCER because one shot should be enough to down an enemy period

why have 20 bullets to the torso and 1 bullet to the head be the mechanics of the game?
>>
>>320418951
>I hate "realistic" damage because I can't aim
Next you should say that recoil is the cancer of shooting games
>>
They are only cancer if you play on consoles with a controller and auto aim.

So does getting shot in the heart.

And getting shot in the legs would cripple you.

"Realism" and bullet mechanics are very separate things in the vast majority of videogames.

I miss when bullets killed people. When snipers were feared. Now its all hints and crybaby damages. Now if some faggot stabilizes in a jet, I have to double or triple headshot to kill him. Thanks battlefield. Thanks gta5.

Dont even get me started on rl and gl and knife damage.

Headshots are a shit mechanic and "muh realism" is a shit excuse for shit mechanics.
If you can't consistently put out damage for longer than a single click, you're shit and not a "sniper".

So you support low-skill players who frantically and wildly aim having the opportunity to get lucky one (or two) shot kills through headshots?

Before you go on about the top percentage of players being able to consistently perform headshots, let me remind you most FPS have RNG recoil on top of netcode and latency issues.
>>
>>320421398
Anytime they're not lucky they're getting
shitstomped. That's why they're low skill.

Do you think your opinion is just right without considering how much of an idiot you are beforehand?
>>
>>320420095
Tribes Ascend makes no effort whatsoever to combat cheating through weapon design. Automatics and Snipers can be easily aimbotted. It would also take tuning the jetpacks differently, to give them more hang time and air control. Tribes Ascend could theoretically be modded into exactly what I'm talking about but so could every Tribes game.
>>
>>320421960
So you support a certain level of undeserved luck and chance in competitive video games?

I would rather an FPS have headshots the explosive weaponry

Explosives are for handicapped kids who can't aim bullets
>HEY LOOK AT ME I WALKED INTO A ROOM AND PRESSED AND SINGLE BUTTON AND EVERYTHING WITHIN THE AREA DIED
>I'M SO FUCKING SKILLED PLACING THOSE CLAYMORES ON THE GROUND AND LETTING SOMEONE WALK IBTO THEM
>HEY MOM WATCH ME KILL THIS GUY WITH A ROCKET WHEN THIS IS A GAME ABOUT GUNS AT AND HE HAD NO CHANCE TO RETALIATE
>BOY I SURE AM SKILLED KILLING MYSELF AGAIN AND AGAIN BY PRESSING MOUSE 1 AT MY FEET WITH A SINGLE ENEMY AROUND
>BOY IT SURE TAKES A LOT OF SKILL USING THESE PIPE GRENADES THAT ROLL AROUND ON THE GROUND THAT I DON'T HAVE TO ACTUALLY AIM WITH I'LL JUST SHOOT MY ENTIRE LOAD INTO THIS ROOM LOL
FUCK EXPLOSIVES. IF YOU CAN'T AIM A GUN IN AN FPS GET THE FUCK OUT.
NAME ME ONE FPS WITH NO FUCKING EXPLOSIVE WEAPONRY AND I WILL PLAY THAT SHIT FUCKING DAILY

So a major reason why video games struggle to be competitive isn't important because video games aren't competitive. Huh.

>>320423118
Any shred of RNG will affect the results of any form of competition when replayed.
>>
>>320423537
If a competitive game is short enough to be affected by any "shred of rng", it's shit.

>So a major reason why video games struggle to be competitive isn't important because video games aren't competitive. Huh.

Also, just as a kind recommendation
Go get your autism diagnosed, you might get some good benefits.

>explosives do more damage on direct hits but laughable/mediocre damage when they roll or hit the ground next to the target

A dedicated explosive game mode can be fun, as it actually lowers the competitive expectation of a match and contains the behavior.

Headshots shouldn't do a disproportionately large amount of damage.
