I am really hoping for similar damage mechanics to Call of Duty 2.

No one is going to be using bolt actions if it takes 2 shots

I’d prefer head and upper torso, but I hope they allow skillful players to take advantage of the bolt action rifles’ power. Hopefully they will disable aim assist as well to avoid quickscoping.

I wouldn’t mind if the 1HK range to the upper chest was increased… but not by much. I thought Bad Company 2’s range was a little extreme. Anything beyond that range would be completely silly for Battlefield due to the average map size.

Maybe they could make it so that within 100m it could be a one shot to head and upper torso and anything past that would need a headshot to keep the skill component in long range sniping.

Not to mention they’re upping bullet velocity.

1HK should be head shot only, the way it is now. I swear you younger kids have 0 skill and constantly ask for buffs in your favor. When you can get past the water level on TMNT for NES or level 4 on lion King for Genesis I will gladly entertain your suggestions. #noskillgeneration

It’s only 1HK to the head beyond a certain distance.

no one will use anything else if they dont have to aim and can get stomach shots for free kills.

1shot kill to the head is fine. I wouldnt be opposed to 2 shot kill anywhere else.

Most people will still use bolt actions regardless.

For sniper rifles? I don’t think so, even with the damage drop off the headshot multiplier makes it a OHK.

I’m saying that it can be a 1HK to the upper torso below a specific distance.

OHK to head/ chest for realism.. OHK to head only to weed out those that can’t aim.

Or you can just play the dreaded Hardcore - where Normal fanboys swear up and down everyone and their mom uses a sniper rifle, but you’ll more or less be shredded by DMR’s, LMGs, and vehicles 99% more than you’ll ever see someone effectively camping with a sniper rifle.
