    I remember my goal was to be active on warz (this is awhile back.) Everytime I got good loot I would just be one shotted so I quit warz and now I never really go on it much.
    So I like the idea, I want headshots to be removed also.

    EDIT: Don't go thinking I'm good at warz, I'm a terrible terrible warz player.

    A. You can still scope as hit someone's foot per say, and it counrs as a headshot. It could work, but I don't see it having a major change.

    B. the headshot multiplier is a static number meaning that this would also apply to the other guns as well.

    C. That would make WarZ more corrupt as everyone would be running aroun with diamond armor...

    A. Since when do foot shots count as headshots? Couldn't you just remove that? And the fact still remains, if you code that in, lucky headshots will cease to exist. Yes, you would still be able to headshot people when you're scoping, but if you remove headshots all together, it becomes so much more about comboing than it needs to be.
    B. Isn't it possible for you to lower headshot multiplier just for snipers?
    C. I guess you're right there. I mean mo' diamond mo' problems amiright.

    A. That is what is wrong with headshots. You shoot someone in the foot and its counted as a headshot. Minecraft does a bad job in handling this so there is no fix as of now.

    B. We would have to code in headshots per gun - which would be too much work as of now.

    A. That is why I'm saying you can't get headshots in the head or in the foot while you're not scoping- is that possible? That way headshots can only be used by skilled players who actually aim. I think taking them out all together is too much.

    I say remove them. 90% of the time I die, it's from headshots from 2 blocks away. Maybe you can make it so you can only headshot from like 25 blocks away or more. It wouldn't make much sense, but it would be more balanced.

    I would keep head shots, but nerf the barret's overall damage as tdaddy said.

    I don't understand what you are trying to say. All I'm trying to tell you is that scoping or not, you can get headshots from shooting someone anywhere from the head to the foot and have the chance of getting a headshot

    He's saying that you should only be able to get headshots if you aim.
    But isn't that beyond the limits of the current plugin?

    All I'm saying is: Why don't we just remove no-scope headshots? Whether a foot shot counts as a headshot or not is irrelevant.
    Because I think removing headshots all together is crazy, but I agree I think they do need a bit of a nerf.

    Yes, it would be possible. But just like before, it would apply to all the other guns as well.

    It could be an option. But, even when aiming headshots still would be glitchy. :c

    Lets look at the pros and cons

    PRO:
    • Guns get a damage buff.
    • You can tank hits.
    • No more getting 1 shot.
    CON:
    • You can't dish out high damage.
    • You can't 1 shot people to get eZ loot (hue)
    • You can not spas slap
    • You can not barret slap
    I do think the Cons outweigh the pros.

    Also, Getting headshot is a part of the game.
    Its based off of DayZ, am I correct?
    Also, If you get hit in the head you should be able to die a lot more easily than you will if you get shot in the toe.

    The whole point of getting rid of head shots is because they don't work properly. It's kind of random, let's say you you hit someone in the shoes: It counts as a headshot.

    Guys, headshots work properly unless your close range. If you shoot them in the top of the chest to almost the top of the head its a headshot. Up close anything can really be a headshot probably bcuz the snowball is big and even if you aim at their foot the snowball is coming from your head and hits their head before it goes down.

    No.

    Alright, so, when you shoot a bullet, It comes out from BEHIND YOU.
    That's already glitchy.
    Now, when you're extremely close to someone, its going to count as a headshot, because you were looking at their feet, and since the bullet takes a straight path, it will hit their head before their feet.

    No.
    Did you not just see Mario say it's glitchy? It doesn't matter where you hit them. It's random.
