Talk:Headshot
From TF2 Wiki
shouldn't this be under the sniper rifle section ? or at least linked from the sniper rifle section ? unless other classes are capable of headshotting ??--markdeadlydavis 09:49, 14 January 2008 (CST)
- It is linked to multiple articles including the Sniper and Sniper Rifle articles. You can check this by clicking on the "What links here" on the page or going to Special:Whatlinkshere/Headshot --Aurora 10:20, 14 January 2008 (CST)
- Can see them now i looked in the weapon tables then for the first time headshot was mentioned in the sniper section text and saw it was not a link i can see its the second mention of headshot thats a link now though.--markdeadlydavis 10:33, 14 January 2008 (CST)
- if the sniper rifle is the only headshot capable weapon should this stub be here or a new section under sniper rifle--markdeadlydavis 10:33, 14 January 2008 (CST)

- I think it's valid, it is a common term that crops up in TF2 after all. It probably needs more text in it but I don't see any reason why it should have it's own seperate article. --Aurora 10:41, 14 January 2008 (CST)
Better Picture
Personally, I don't like the picture very much. I think it's a good placeholder, but we could do better. What I'd love to see is a big image of an enemy (like a Heavy) getting shot in the head. This pic we got now looks more like it should be in the Sniper Rifle article.--CountDOODOO 13:42, 9 March 2008 (CDT)
- I just recorded some footage with the help of a couple of CP guys Collin and gryffinp. I should be able to pull a nice frame or two and I'll Youtube it if I can.--Wipnum 16:52, 9 March 2008 (CDT)
Reworked the part about the point values. --Sturmkommando 19:24, 1 June 2009 (UTC)
Headshot Scoring
I'm pretty sure it's a bit more complex than 1.5 points for a headshot. Headshot bonuses are simply treated as an extra point for every two kills, with nothing given for each odd-numbered headshot. The Huntsman and the Ambassador simply double this bonus. For instance, a rifle headshot and an assist together only make one point. A Huntsman or Ambassador headshot is worth only one point. 2 rifle headshots and 2 assists make 4 points, as do two Huntsman or Ambassador Headshots. Not 100% sure though, so I'll leave it off the page for now. Anybody want to help me test this out? TheNeotank 22:11, 15 June 2010 (UTC)
- I'd be willing to help you test it. Add me on Steam when you get the chance, I won't be on again today for a few hours though. -Firestorm2 S B T 22:16, 15 June 2010 (UTC)
- Not that hard to do, just get one rifle headshot and one assist, if it makes one point, I'm a genius. Thanks anyhow. TheNeotank 22:31, 15 June 2010 (UTC)
