TheNexxusOne Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 Real World Concept: Shooting someone in the head with a firearm almost always results in death. Nothing breaks the immersion more for me than to empty an entire clip into a Raider's head and they don't die. Corresponding Game Mechanic: Head shots against unhelmeted characters results in a critical strike 100% of the time. Helmets can reduce the critical chance from head shots. The best helmets give a 75% reduction in critical chance, so a head shot would only result in a critical strike 25% of the time. Cheap helmets only give 5-10% critical reduction. Alternate Game Mechanic: If the helmet thing is not possible to mod right now, just give the 100% critical chance for head shots please! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BanjoOz Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 I'd quite happily take the big difficulty climb that an enemy can insta-kill me with a headshot if I can do the same to them! Yes please (and I agree, even two shots I can just deal with... but when I put five VATS shots into a raider's head and they keep coming?!) I do think VATS head shots should be a bit harder, though (especially since we don't have eyes/groin anymore). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

w0t Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 Thirded! But I can't seem to find the base odds for individual body parts... :| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Circuitous Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 Sure would make a lot of stats irrelevant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macmert Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Try using a shotgun from close range, I have seen super mutants fall down with one shot of the combat shotgun... or try to sneak and shoot them before being seen... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erfrag Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 whats the problem with cranking the difficulty and going through 2 Assault Rifle clips to the head of a raider, with 100 small guns and 9 Agility? haha. j/k lol. 100% crit to the head should be a must. combined with a non-god mode vats mod the game would be a lot more immersing.

macmert Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 Actually you can have 100% head shot crit in game... get sniper perk, increase luck to 10, get better criticals for dmg increase, also if you want to hit crit all the time, just sneak... sneak attacks are considered critical hits...
