Shot Locations

<div class="IPBDescription">does the head really matter?</div> Forgive me if this is a newb question, but...
Does NS use shot location? If i lerkspike some poor marine in the head versus the foot does it make a difference? Should I have my Onos back into the marine base to mimimize damage (I'm kidding) etc?

    honestly im not sure, but as an alien it often doesnt matter, because honestly you should have him or shouldnt have him whether you aim for the head or not (unlike cstrike), its usually a matter of marines better planning vs. aliens better hiding.

    I think it does matter depending on what you are using.
    For example. If i have a pot shot at a marine and I'm a skulk, lerk, or Gorge, and I'm going to send a projectile at him. If I have the opportunity for a head shot, and it will help (especially with Lerk spikes) then I'd like to know, and I'd think it'd make a big difference. Besides anything to turn parasite damage up a little :>

    Yeah, no location specific damage modifiers. That way aimbots aren't <i>quite</i> as effective, and it emphasizes tactics over fps skillz.
