hey hows it going? hows the project goin? anywho are you gonna add bullet hole details? like in walls and such? also when exaclty did that demo come out? im just wanting to know. cause there are some funny ways how the guys hold the guns. oh and umm everytime i try shooting in the head, there heads dont blow up. they only blow up before the thing is dead but no 1 shot kill moves. I love the demo so far, its probibly the best servival horror demo ive played, and i know for sure its gonna beat games like resident evil outbreak.

Fun fact: every weapon in unreal is two handed. So the unreal devs had no issue with just using the same anim for holding every weapon in the game. This causes us problems, but we'll work them out before release.
As far as one shot kill moves, very few weapons will have them. They're zombies. And even if some weapons DO 1-shot-kill the clots, wretches, stalkers, good luck trying that with the fleshpounds. Ain't gonna happen.
EDIT: Dammit! I'm a stalker now! DAMN YOU, ALEX!

One shot kill moves....bleh Explosives and maybe the shotguns should be the only ones to do that. Else you'd just pick off zombies with the MG's Scope.

I could see the crossbow maybe getting headshot-kills on the weaker guys, because they're so unwieldy, but yeah, the L85's pretty good as-is, balance-wise. Maybe if it becomes more of a late-game weapon, the damage will be scaled upward, but we'll see how things go in that department.

Sorry man, no easy one shot headshot takedowns. But there are guns that will kill zombies in one blast if fired at the right range The Hunting shotgun will do away with Clots / Wretchs / Stalkers in one blast if you angle it right and wait until you see the whites of their eyes (Or reds as it were) The regular Shotgun can have a similar effect, but it takes abit more work to get a one shot kill. Generally it's a tiny bit weaker than the hunting shotgun. Obviously the LAW is gonna be another weapon that will take out alot of weaker zombies in a single blast. Oh, and yeah we were considering putting in a headshot modifer for the Crossbow so that could be another weapon that might qualify as lethal. Again though, it's going to be balanced. We don't want a single player to be able to sit back and pick off 200 enemies because he's able to use the scope and point it over their "head" These things are dead in the first place, and many have exposed / no brains
