My first reaction is: Too much damage in chest/neck/shoulders area!
I like that only hitting head gives massive damage in ET. Feels too generous in ETQW with those damage zones.
The good part of ET that its hugly fun to learn to hit a very small object that is moving (the head of a moving enemy). And improving your skills in hitting this little area is imo very very satisfying.
For me target practise is a huge part of the fun in ET.
If the damage-zones in ETQW were like in ET, it would higher the skill level in ETQW, since as it now in ETQW everyone who can hit the chest of an enemy is a "proaimer", where as in ET you need to hit forehead to be a "proaimer".

whole head should be 35-40 even,
all chest should be 15,
then hands ,legs,arms,feet 7 :)
only a small elite group like me can pewpew headshot
BOOM HEARTSHOT.
not got the same ring to it ;)
Make it CS, 1 headshot = instant kill :p
Its way harder to make 3 hs, than 5 chest shots. Any noob can hit chest.
With only 5 shots, you dont need strafe skill, or tracking skill, since you only need so few bullets to hit the body.
This game is so designed for the nubs:
- High spread, so pro aimers wont own everyone
- Low strafe speed, so skill-less players dont need to learn movement skill, or learn how to track a player
- Low skill damage-zones, so people dont need to aim for head, to make a fast kill. Chest will do fine.
In ET a kill is 3-4 hs or 9 chest shots.
MP40/Thompson
40 HP: Headshot with helmet
50 HP: Headshot without helmet
18 HP Bodyshot
ET is a skill game because:
- Low spread, pro aimers own everyone.
- High strafe speed (if you saved your stamina), so skilled players who have learned movement skill can own players.
- High skill damage-zone, so people need to aim for head, to make a fast kill, and have good tracking skills to kill a player since body shots dont make much damage.
QW is NOT ET, when will the last whiner get the too? If there wouldnt have been any difference they would have called it ET2
But u have to live with the fact, that QW is the most comparable game with ET, maybe even more than RTCW
only my opinion
