Yea, PC performance is definitely much better since the preview last week. The frametimes are MUCH better! The game is silky smooth now ![Smiling Face With Sunglasses :messenger_sunglasses: :messenger_sunglasses:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)

Question for all you veterans - what counts as a headshot? It takes 9 shots from the pistol - if I had 8 shots on the head but the final killing blow is on the chest, I assume that doesn't count as a HS?
I've been pretty good with my aiming but I'm not getting a lot of headshot kills so I assume this is why?
headshots only work after the shield is down.
you can headshot someone with a gun as much as you like, but if the shields aren't down it makes no difference
and yes, the final hit has to be on the head to count as a headshot kill
When shields are down, one shot to the head or three shots to the body with a battle rifle.Also do headshots have low damage multipliers like in COD? E.g. 1.1, 1.2 etc.
Or are they quite big, like 1.5+?
Just play Halo 5, you keep on telling everyone how you don't agree with Halo Infinites direction, that's unfortunate and you're in the minority but that's the way it is.I guess we disagree on that then. I prefer an even playing field for everyone, so I want everyone to have it at all times.
A headshot will drop the shield faster anyway.Fuck me, so I've been trying to be accurate with shields all this time lmao
gotcha thank you

In Halo? Nah, I don't think that's right mate.A headshot will drop the shield faster anyway.
It doesn't matter if you shoot someone in the middle of the forehead or in the big toe. If they have shields, you'll do the same damage.OH. thank you. I’m learning a lot from you guys
There is a slide boost for momentum on ramp. If sprinting jump and crouch landing on a ramp will give you faster traversal speed.I'd love this too but it's not going to happen. They've purposely nerfed sliding so it's not used as a mobility tool, but rather an option to make a quick escape. They don't want people slipping and sliding around and chaining jumps to slides to jumps etc. They've designed it so the only time you should be using slide is to make a quick escape from a gun fight when you're low on health.
Think about how rigid sliding is in this game:
I don't think it's rigid by accident - I think it's intentional after how many people complained about the speed of Halo 5. It's very much by design.
- You can't break out of a slide, once you slide you're locked into the animation. Jumping is the only way to break out of it unfortunately. You can't hit the sprint button to continue on your way.
- You can't jump and break directly into a slide the moment you touch the ground.
So I don't think they will touch sliding at all.
It doesn't matter if you shoot someone in the middle of the forehead or in the big toe. If they have shields, you'll do the same damage.
It's always been the same, 3 body shots and when the shields pop go for the head to get the kill. Some weapons don't really do headshots e.g. AR. You want BR or Commando etc for the headshot.Alright I'm confused now. lol. Maybe it changed from game to game, that's why you're all remembering it differently?
Friend code if anyone is interested. Hope to play during the evening today.

The only thing that threw me off is that it's 4 characters per segment instead of the usual 5.
EDIT:. Code seems to be for PC players only. That's strange...
It’s not a friend code, it’s a key to download the tech preview. The same way you put money on your account when you buy a card or a digital game code.you're giving me Nintendo PTSD with that shit. Which platform has friends codes these days?
Check your messagesDoes anyone have a pc buddy code for me? I applied for the insider but never got an invite sadly![]()
oh, disaster averted.It’s not a friend code, it’s a key to download the tech preview. The same way you put money on your account when you buy a card or a digital game code.

Git GudCan't get over how bad the aiming is on controller for this game. I thought it was just me, but it looks like many people on Reddit are saying the same thing. It's ruining my hype for the multiplayer big time

I'm glad to see that people actually are reporting on the bad controller aiming on Reddit... here are posts about it I found. i hope 343i listens!!!

This seriously needs to be addressed. This isn’t just a “git gud” situation. Aiming is broken and downplaying/defending the current model is only going to hurt the success of Infinite. : halo (reddit.com)
Anyone else still feel like the aiming doesn’t feel right : halo (reddit.com)
