Helmets Being Shot Off

I love how when you shoot someone in the head with a sniper rifle their helmet flies off. Does this happen with all headshots or just rifles?

only rifles i guess
kudos for dice bringing something new on the horizon

Definitely saw it happen with semi-auto carbines - but not sure if it happens with automatic weapons or pistols. Everyone was aiming like they were playing with two hunks of salami for hands, so there were rarely headshots with automatic weapons shown on-screen.

I love it. I would guess it does it with every guns.

I just saw the helmet fly off when JackFrags got a headshot kill using the MP 18.

Go to 3:43 and look closely. :slight_smile:

EA’s Medal of Honor Airborne 2007 did this as well.

Indeed, quite a few other games have had this in the past, hell you could shoot the cap off an officer’s head in GoldenEye 64. I’m just glad Battlefield now has this.

Saw it in this video for the first time (at 07:23). Made me chuckle a bit.

Think its a sniper in this case but I have also seen JackFrags with the MP. Got to love the details.

I saw a helmet flying off by an SMG shot. The reason why this feature is in the game, I don’t know.

For the lols.
