Hey Sniper Mates,
I would have a question. Do you happen to know what sniper rifle damage should be set in server CVAR, so that an experienced player's (player having all levels in classes and highest battle sense level) ONE SINGLE HEADSHOT from remote distance surely kills the enemy? I would need the minimum required damage, so that sniper rifle does not get all too strong compared to other weapons.
I suppose this is also the default setting on sniper server.

g_dmgSniper
default value is 50:
g_dmgSniper "50"

But this is the damage of sniper when scoped, not of headshot... you could change it to 55 or 60 but then again there is risk that who uses sniper would be invincible.

The headshot setting (minimum damage with hs whatever weapon it is) is
g_dmgHeadShotMin
default value is again 50:
g_dmgHeadShotMin "50"
but, again, this settings is for every weapons...

Just leave it as it is... default value are best

Hi Butcher, maybe, like Teammate said, you should leave those cvar settings as default And anyway, the sniper server is tweak protected , that means that some settings are enforced by server, for a more fair and challenging gameplay. Anyway, it is possible, on sniper server, to kill the enemy with one shot, but it has to be a Headshot

[Butcher]

The aim would be what I said: one headshot = one kill. And I suppose it can be achieved by increasing the sniper rifle damage from the default 50 or 60. With 60 2 sniper headshot were needed to score a kill. Headshot damage ratio should not be increases, as all weapons would then have much higher destruction effect, which is not our aim. So the first solution remain, therefore I asked what exactly would be the required sniper rifle minimum damage for one hs one kill when scoped! If only set for scoped shooting, the sniper is far not as invincible. There are different settings for scopoed and unscoped use of sniper rifles. I estimate that value should be between 80 and 100.

I'd say 70 hp would be a good compromise... anything higher would make a sniper invincible: imagine that you're running away from a sniper and he kills you instantly!

Remember that headshot do 2x damage (g_dmgHeadShotRatio) so 70*2= 140 = 1 headshot 1 kill (only lvl 4+ medic have more than 140 hp)

The dmg should be higher.
1 HS = 1 Kill . I think thats normal :9

[Cryptic]

No idea what you mean? actually is one headshoot 1 kill,, and the settings are pretty fair for most people, i just miss the Scope reload like in Nitmod, but oh well, no complaints!!
