Body Armor Question
So just had a longer range sniper duel that left me wondering; which class or setup can take 2 SWS longbarrel/hi-power/bipod headshots (blue/silver hitmarker and headshot sound effect) at about 250...
There is a headshot multiplier but even the snipers can have damage dropoff - That said, it could have been an upper body/neck shot but an audio bug occured. I can't remember if body armor still protects arms/legs off the top of my head but it no longer offers reduction on headshots.
Assault has a med pen for fast heals, any support character has access to the med crate, and Falck specifically has unlimited heals.
I think the original/main intention of adding armour plating to the game was for Hazard Zone but they threw it in to regular multiplayer because it was there.
Thing is only head was visible above rooftop, and even if not I know when a shot is a headshot and kill after ~10k kills only sniping.
Never before occured so I wonder if that player found a way to glitch the body armor system in a way, or even cheated
*Was on regular mode Breakthrough, and now that you mentioned it thats exactly how it felt and looked like - as if armor was boosted like in a firestorm or battleroyal style game mode.
backe to s4 some ammo just have 2x dag on head and over 100m the base damg is fdrop to 50 less , is has been fix to 3x
