Or perhaps thats the glitch where you stab someone multiple times
I've noticed this sometimes too.  I've been working on my knife skills to get my veteran badge, and more than once I've stabbed at someone, seen the puff of dust that shows you hit, and run on past him to the next target only to get mown down from behind cause the bastard didn't die!

Is this intended, or is it a glitch?  Or am I just crap?  Getting those knife kills is hard enough, I don't want to have to get head-shots with the damn thing...

this is a great post. it simplifies the whole one shot thing. it would be good if it could be expanded to include all weapons. then expand it even more to include shots to the torso.
Shots to Kill Non Armor    ?
Shots to Kill Armor    ?

Taken from the weapon section in wiki

http://wiki.bf2s.com/weapons
there isnt a line of shots to kill person in head. so
m95 got shots to kill non armor 2
but with a headshot its different

I knifed somebody 3 times today!  3 TIMES!  He didn't die!... he turned around and shot me with his DAO.

damn that sucked.  It must be a glitch.  2 times to the leg and one to the chest.

Shouldn't.  That would probably be to complicated for the engine with a reward of little value.  I doubt EA messed with that sort of thing.

It's kind of like the bullet drop debate in BF2.  Some people swear there is none, and some people swear there is.  Personally, I beleive there is, mostly because if I am at someone in the prone position at a distance and shoot I will miss, but if I aim just a tad above them it hits them.

Ahhh, the many wonders of the BF2 engine!

There is bullet drop. Try sitting on on the carrier in Dalian and sniping at the AA emplacement on the beach. You can't see the guy on it but you can check your map to see if it's occupied or not. Then you will see there is bullet drop.

I found a near empty server with one afk guy in it a little while ago and decided to do some experimenting on headshots. I tested which guns kill with one shot to the head and which guns don't. Anywho, I thought I'd share my findings as it seems many people don't know how powerful the guns are. I was only able to test the UMSC side guns and all unlocks. I was not able to test the MEC or PLA regulars so the list is a little incomplete.

Spec Ops Kit:  All Spec Ops guns - no one shot kill, not even the Scar-L
Sniper Kit:      All Sniper guns - well duh, all one shot headkill
Assault Kit:     M16A2 - no| G3 - yes| F2000 - yes
Anti-Tank Kit:  MP5 - no| Dao - yes| P90 - no
Medic Kit:        M16A2 - no(duh)| L85A1 - yes| G36E - no
Support Kit:     M249 SAW - no| PKM - yes| MG36 - no
Engineer Kit:    M11-87 - yes| Mk3A1 - yes| MP7 - no

Hope people find this useful.

P.S. I know UBAR says damage for each weapon but I really have no clue what 30 damage means. I guess one shot kills occur between 30 and 34 damage. According to UBAR the M16A2 does 30 damage while the F2000 does 34 damage.

Edit: I can't spell for shit when I'm tired.
all guns can kill in 1 head shot except pistols and SMGs which do 70% damage to the body per head shot

If you look closely at the Benelli M4 (Eu Shotgun) on the Wiki, you'll notice its almsot as powerful as the pump action shotguns, even though its automatic.
that is because it has less ammo
and even though it is semi auto it fires only alittle bit faster then the M11-87 no where near the firing rate of the Siaga 12k

experienced that multiple times, most likely server lag/desynch or something
glad i have my expert knife so i dont' have to knife anymore, just pistol them to the head instead now, works most of the time
anyone know how big the hitbox for the head is? becuase sometimes i swear i pink them point blank in the head and they don't die

YA RLY.

I once defended a flag i was capping from a squad of three people with three l85 headshots. They were coming down the hill towards Train on Karkand and I was proning near the fence. It only took three shots, cos none of them seemed to know where I was and at that distance it's easy to place a HS with the L85.

I got wiped out by arty seconds later, of course
