One Shot Guide (Thoggin')
Hey people! Ever see high ranks (Not always necessarily high ranks) going around and popping one shot into your head and you end up calling them a hack, when they sometimes are just pro one-shooters? My nickname for these fine fellows are Thogs, it is just something I would like to call them instead of one shooter. Now, most the time these guys are just pros who know how to do this good, and believe me, it takes a ton of practice. Here are some strategies to help you out.
Strategies:
• Aim slightly high, I find it easier to bring your mouse down on someone's head, instead of going up and maybe going passed the head, going down, even if you miss, you'll still hit the body.
• All the character models have a general height, this is why i say aim high.
• Practice as much as possible. Sure you may start going negative in games, but once you get the hang of it, people will be calling you a hack, and when you're not hacking, that definitely makes you feel like a boss! Some ways to practice are: Do some private FFA's with your friends and only shoot bursts at their head, this is what i call, "Head Tag", or, "Thog Tag". Also, the best practice is to do it in every public match and clan match you join.
• Pick out a good cross hair. It is your opinion what you pick. To me, I don't think that type A is suitable for Thogging, simply because it doesn't have a point, like type B and C. I think type B is best because it is type A with a dot that doesn't take up all your cross hair like type C, where you can simply put a small tiny dot on a big target and click away. However, some people prefer type C because they find it easy to put that circle on the somewhat circle-shaped head. Like I said, it's your opinion.
• Cross hair color is important. I am constantly changing mine due to the simple fact that to me green doesn't stand out at all, blue doesn't stand out against Global Risk, and yellow doesn't stand out against Black List. Pick a cross hair color that stands out to YOU. Don't let people tell you one is more accurate then another, or one stands out more than another, because it's different to everyone, and a complete opinion.
• The guns are key. Don't use SMG's for Thogging. They have lower power and most take at least 3 shots to kill with a head shot. Don't use snipers, as they have power and always one hit the head, but the ROF, (Rate of Fire) will get you killed, and so will the low ammo capacity. Use assault rifles. About 90% are one shot to the head at all ranges, and are very reliable. Don't use a Scar Light. This gun is too easy and will not build your skill. I recommend using the reliable M4A1-Carbine to start. It's very accurate and moderate power. Once you have mastered this, master the Avtomat-Klashkinov 47, (AK47) and if you get that down, congrats! You've mastered two of the best guns in game! Then go on to spin crate guns (ASSAULT RIFLES) if you want to continue to one shot with more, rare, guns, and master those!
Thank you for reading and Happy Thoggin'!

can anyone confirm this?
oh now i see why when i crouch , i tend to kill the pros more.
Unconfirmed, it's much much easier to kill still targets, especially if your opponent is crouching at range. Crouching when your in arms length may help for a few ms. -

I think the confirming was for the OP, not for the crouching thing, henry. -
Alternatively, you can just aim on head height and just click once with just about any rifle.

UPDATE
Guns suitable for thogging are as follows.
•M4A1
•AK-47
•Tar-21
•G36K
•AK-74
•K-2
•Scar Heavy
•SG552
•Steyr AUG A1
•QBZ-95
•XM8
•Ruger Mini 14
If-ish guns are as follows.
•FAMAS
•Type 89
•Winchester ( I don't recommend...)
•M60
•RPK
Guns that are not good for ONE shotting (Thoggin') are as follows.
•Scar Light (Doesn't build skill, therefor isn't acceptable.)
•ALL SMG's
•ALL SNIPERS
When I say M4A1 I mean all weapons of the M4A1 series, ditto for the AK-47. MG's are good for thogging, but can get you killed due to the weight slowing you down, making it much easier for people to pick you off like a sitting duck. All crate guns that are assault rifles are great for thoggin', and are a good way to show off in my opinion, because I always love to thog someone in the head with a rare weapon, rubbing it in their faces.
ZP Crate Guns Good for thoggin'
•M4A1-Custom
•AK-47 Knife
•AK-47 Scope
•M14EBR
•Galil ARM
•M4A1-Elite
•FN M249 MINIMI
•RPK Gold
•M60-Adv
I did not put the gatling gun in here due to the simple fact that the weight makes you feel like you are shift walking everywhere. It is suitable for them noob campers though, if you're a noob camper.
GP Crate Guns Good for Thoggin'
•Baretta AR-70
•XM8-Adv
•AK-47 Camo
•Steyr AUG A1 Camo
I did not put on the M16S-Camo because it isn't a head shot at all ranges... But it is at medium to close range.
I will soon re-make this guide putting all of this and the information from the 1st post in one post all together, and I will also include some downloadable Cross Fire Replays that you can download and put in your replay folder to watch in game, and watch how i do it. Thanks for reading. Also, for those who want to conquer the AK-47, check out Malte[gr]'s guide on it. It helped me out a lot, and maybe it will do the same for you! http://forum.z8games.com/showthread.php?t=26491 -
