okay so here's the deal , you cant / couldnt atleast last time I played (2 weeks ago or sumthin) get a marksman headshot with any of the "non-boltactions" not in normal nor hardcore mode , I guess since they're not real marksman rifles , but you can get headshot bonus and all the other bonus bonuses .

but again they might have changed it in the patch , btw "non-bolts" still doesn't kill on one headshot ?
If he's hurt already I assume it would count as a headshot kill.

It counts as a headshot kill if you hit them in the head and kill them, it doesn't matter if they're wounded or not. I've done it with sniper rifles, semis, even a nade launcher.

It's probably because I suck, but I find I need luck with the M14. Sometimes I'll rape with it, and sometimes it'll seem like the bullets come out miles wide. I guess ping/latency might be to blame, but it's a really on and off gun for me. Though when it's 'on'.... oh it's ON!

Same with the Garand for me. I use it mainly with the Assault class (cause the AR´s suck balls) and when I play it Medic-style, hanging back a few meters, it´s quite effective. Sucks if there are more than two ppl though.
It seems the Garands hitreg is horribly delayed, like the 3rd shot killed the guy but he runs around for a few more seconds. Ends with me gambling whether to put another round into him or not way too often

I ...know ... what I'm saying is you'll only get the headshot bonus not a marksman headshot since it's not a one-shot-kill.

So... In case anyone was wondering / Note to self / For future reference:
Using higher explosive damage in conjunction with C4 on the M-Com does indeed affect it. 10 with, 14-16 (actual # unconfirmed) without.


I would also like to bitch that the M95 with magnum bullets should be a one-hit kill, even on non-hardcore. Moreso, I'd like to play something in between regular and hardcore, something that doesn't require an entire magazine to kill, but also something that doesn't make me instantly die repeatedly when spawning on a squadmate. Or y'know, they could let you filter that shit in the server browser

Ahhh, I get you now. I didn't know that's how it worked, I thought it was based on range.

Not true. You get the marksman headshot bonus for every sniper rifle including the full auto VSS as long as its a headshot of course.

Actually I think I am right and it is based on range. Today I headshot someone on full health (they had spawned recently) with a sniper rifle from relatively close and didn't get any marksmanship points.

It is range based. Something that grinds my gears though is the little grace period someone gets after they get revived. I sniped a guy. He got revived, I sniped him again as he was standing still, and he just took it. Then him and the medic proceeded to kill me instead.

Of course its also based on range. The farther someone is the more points you get. But what I am saying is that all sniper rifle headshots count as marksman headshots. Bolt action, semi auto and full auto.

well I can insure you I played 6 hours IN A FKIN ROW with the other silenced rifle (about 2 weeks ago , before any recent patch ? ) and no matter wheter they where 150+ meters or closer , no marksman bonus , nor hardcore or normal mode ( HC= one headshot kill ) so if they've patched since then , maybe you get marksman bonus for all the rifles... hopefully will be gaming this weeken again and WILL try this out again.

I'm sure the rifles all receive the bonus, but I think there is a minimum range before the bonus comes into effect, eg. 100m.

Not true. If it's a headshot that kills and it's at long range, it qualifies.
