how much trouble

[JARHEADE9]

how much trouble would it be to have a headshot only server/maps ? I used to love going to a headshot only server that way players can realy improve there aim and scrimmers can also benifit from these type of server/maps ? just a thought !

[THUNDER]

really great idea not only to improve sniper experience

i hope dare and the other founders / admins see it by the same way

would be nice

Easy to allow voting for that in ETPro.

the heads would need to be more stand out, the sten will loose the overheatings and heavy weapons barring mg42 will be disallowed and the shot gun as well. i expect the poison needle to run off along with the rifle nades and mines.

i have no problem with this.

 

on a good day i can average about 1000 headies.

this is an only headshot server, though i dont like it too much, i prefer just regular element purefrag or STA (thx dare)

[daredevil]

I would put configs for HS mode on our etpro.

terror i dont care what you want.

In real game its not useful. I suggest practice with general settings since each league, scrim, etc uses it. Just try to aim only for HS and then server will be in HS mode. Turn of sounds of bodyshots. You can do that for etpro. Its in etpro options.

this bit here would be especially not useful for real game.. what if you learned to get head shots on heads that were neon colors and 3x as big as normal? that would do you no good on any other settings. likewise playing with stens that don't overheat would screw you up on any other server.

OK lets do the math..

lets see in an average game of 20-30 minutes i might fire 800-900 rounds..

my accuracy is usually around 43-48% hits..

when i am really hot i might get 25% headshots, normally closer to 15% of the hits.

 

so a lower bound for 1 game if i am not sucking: 800*0.43*0.15 = 52

for an upper bound if my opponents suck or i have been playing WAY too much ET: 900*0.48*0.25 = 108

 

well thats for 1 game. how many games would i have to play to get 1000 hs?

 

on an average day: 1000/52 = 19 +change ~ 20

on a very good day: 1000/108 = 9 + change ~ 10

 

if each game averages 20 minutes or so,

on an average day i am playing for 20*20/60 = 6.7 hours

on a really spectacular day where i am accused of hax the whole time ( or i'm shooting bots lol ), i would only be playing for about 10*20/60 = 3.3 hours

 

OK so if you are pretty pro, you probably play for 3-3.5 hours to get 1000 hs. that's not unreasonable, but to keep up that kind of skill you probably need to play even more than that. personally i need a few hours ( or more lol ) of warmup before i am near that good. so lets put that closer to 5-6 hours a day. if you go to work or school, that's almost ALL your free time spent playing a decade-old video game with crappy graphics and 1000's of players using 100's of hacks. good job..???

 

if you are not quite the best, but still much better than average ( 15% of hits = hs is a really good average - most people average about half that or less ), you still need some warmup time so maybe you are playing 8-9 hours a day. that's practically ALL DAY ( less potty breaks, food and sleep ) spent in front of your PC playing the same handful of maps over and over and over. wow talk about leading a rich life.

 

so yeah i don't have any idea how good of a player you are 5N34KYK1LL, but from what you described as "your style" i think you probably don't pop off 900 rounds in a 20 minute game, so we're talking probably an hour or two above the numbers i worked out for you to get 1000 hs. it's totally not unreasonable, but it's kinda pathetic at the same time if you are playing ET for 10 hours a day.

 

now this was all done for smg stats - maybe you just hide somewhere and snipe all day. you get more hs/hits but you don't fire off 800 rounds in a game sniping, not even close.

the moral here is don't throw random numbers at mathematicians =D

[pepe.]

are you really a mathematician?

[daredevil]

Some of my good old days.. i have walked away with 200+ HS in game. It was something like 2.7 HS/kill ratio. Just need 5-8 decent maps in a row for 1000 HS.

 

Out of my 1000+ pics founded few..

 

Few of my FG-42.......Zane was laughing his ass off... I miss him.

 

 

For those who b*** for their FPS... saying OMG its just 50 fps lol

 

Now a days i get loosing sprees lol..

I used to run a jaymod server for a clan and we would always have Headshot Tuesday! Every Tuesday we would change the server name to .. wouldnt ya know"Headshot Tuesday" and run it as headshots only. This is a simple setting in the Jaymod config and can be easily toggled.
