Any Headshot fixes coming any time soon?

Headshots have been really wonky lately, been getting stupid numbers like -3, -9, -12, -15. FOR A HEADSHOT. EVEN IN HEADSHOT ONLY MODE. With no helmet on to boot! with an AK!

I actually have changed my playstyle the last few weeks just to counteract this bs.... Why bother having to shoot someone more than once in a smaller target when you can shoot a 3 round burst into their chest and get the kill....

I know this issue is nothing new, believe me, iv'e played this game off and on for a VEEEEERY long time. However it is definitely happening a lot more frequently, as well as with much more ridiculous numbers. -3, for a AK headshot... That is where i draw the line, where is this game pulling these numbers out of? A magic donkeys ass in space or something? Because that's how magical these numbers are...

Anyway, a fix or atleast some communication towards the issue would be nice.

Negative stuff set aside, thank you for the zp sale, i had 900ish ZP leftover after buying m14 crates a while back, and bought 1 deagle silencer crate and ended up winning the bladed knuckles lmao... So that was an unexpected awesomeness. But that still don't excuse the -3 damage headshots! Get on with the fixes!

  • Do you have screenshots of these? I find it very hard to believe an AK did 3 damage on a headshot unless it was 50 miles away through a box.

    ^ just another forum bot that doens't play hs only ^

    I suggested removing the neck hitbox awhile back... Would fix all of the problems.

    You might find it hard to believe but I do actually play the game. I also occasionally play headshot only. I have NEVER hit anything that low with an AK in my life unless it's through a box.
    Should I stop asking for proof and just blindly accept what others say without evidence?

    If you can show me proof of hitting 3 damage on a headshot I'll gladly edit my reply. Until then, maybe stop disrespecting people for no reason.
  • Yes you can get do less damage when the bullet passes through another person before hitting your target's head. Yes it can be as low as 3. If you want to prove otherwise or want to confirm what I've said, grab one or two other people, make a locked room, and test for yourself. Record that test and post it on forums.
  • It would be a good thing to do something about it
  • I mean....if you're going to report a bug....it's probably a good idea to provide the evidence of that bug anyways so that Support and Devs or whoever else can see exactly what happened and work on the fix for it. Now I'm sure it's a thing as last time I played HS only I saw lots of various damage hits, so i'm sure it's possible...still doesn't remove the need for the evidence if it ever wants to be fixed as if you just report it...and report it...and report it without said evidence...then one day it miiiiight get looked into by a GM deciding to go in and play and then be like 'oh yea so that's definitely a thing' and then them pass it on to Devs who will be like 'meh let's put it in the list as low priority'.
  • you shoud have SS or something for this problem and send it in aticket to the Z8 Support
    • IGN Ezio
  • Lowest I did was a 6 or 9 while back in hs mode for that event but didn't think much of it since it was to a 300 pinger.

    This is actually true honestly. Anyone who doesn't often play HS Mode wouldn't realize how awful it is to use an AK47 and receive a number less than 100. 99, 98, 97, are my lucky numbers, and sometimes below 30. The neck hitbox shouldn't even exist, better to rid of it. Sometimes I don't even shoot the neck and it isn't a headshot. From the exact same distance, another player shoots me with one bullet that does -100 and I'd have only inflicted 98 or 30.

    Go do HS Mode for the entire day and record that. Even in 1v1 I still don't one shot people.

    I don't care about this bug, so I'm not obliged to go through the struggle of playing and recording it for you. You are welcome to prove your point by playing it entire day and recording it.
