How do you guys improve your headshot aiming in the game?

How do you improve your head shot aiming ability? Want to know because I suck at aiming when I play online. And people kill me with just one shot, that is very annoying. Please answer ASAP. Thanks. (And which guns are the best for close range and long range battles.) :D :)

:P

It honestly took me a while to get used to shooting at the head. I usually aim at the stomach and chest because its the biggest part of the body. After being killed numerous times, I eventually had to try and shoot the people in the head because that was the only way I could get kills. Eventually I got used to it.

Guns are really different for each person. If by long range you mean sniper, then definetely go with the M87ELR. For close range, I use the m14. The m14 shoots pretty quick but it only has 20 shots per clip. A lot of new people like the M60 because its pretty powerful and has 100 shots per clip, so you dont reload as often. If I were you, I would try all of the guns and see which one you like the best.

if u ask me, aiming just takes practice and the settings that fit u. for me, i think M14 is a really good all around gun, bit small clip tho. for SEALs, a lot of ppl use M4, but i like IW-80 best.

On vigilance as a SEAL I had a IW-80A2 and I went around the left side of the turret near the seal start. I zoomed in with it's 4x zoom and saw the very tip of a terrorists head one shot one kill. So to actually answer your question I like the IW for close and far range. I also like the m14 because it comes w/ binos and they have 9xzoom. Really great for taking out snipers because you zoom in to see where they are and you zoom back out and pop a couple there. Works great on Enowapi. I'm starting to grow towards the m4 though. Just look around and see what you like. Word of advice though. If you take the m60 which you probably will shoot it semi auto it really kicks *** like that.

If you really want to practise getting headshots use the M40A1 or the M16. With both of those I can somtimes have more headshots thatn kills. The reason for having more is that some people think it funny to put a bullet in the guy just as mine is hitting him in the head to they get the last bullet in the guy and i got a headshot for nothin.

when im on the terrorist side i use the STG 70 or the 552SD. Both aren't very accurate but they kill someone relativly quickly. Then for the pistol I use the Desert Eagle (DE.50) who doesn't?

just point ur crosshair at the dudes head and start holding down R1. thats it really how else will u with out dying

ticketmaster02 · 01-04-2004

and i dont use the desert eagle (DE 50) i use the F57, and SP-10 as a seal.

uhm... wow.. interesting advice.. lol.

if hes at medium range and moving left to right, then you have to short burst at his neck/head

if hes charging right at you straight ahead, you can stand still and full auto it at his chest, the gun will recoil up to his head.

It all depends if you are moving or standing still, and if your target is moving or standing still, and what direction you and your enemy are moving.

Cant have only one way to aim at a guy when there are so many different angles and variations of a firefight.

Oh, and that's me usin the m4a1 unsilenced. if its silenced.. well.. you are going to have to either put more bullets on him (meaning aim lower so the recoil lets more of the bullets hit) or just be real slow and stealthy and try to kill them without them seeing you, or get in a nice position and attack them (takes more time to do that crap though. and apparently most ppl like charging around like morons in multiplayer. which is tobad cuz i think it would be alot funner if multiplayer was more like single player, stealth, etc)
