[Tip] Get more headshots

[taxbat]

Want to know how to get more headshots and just kills overall. Well here it is! Change your settings on your crosshair. Many veteran players might already know this, but argue about what is a good size. Many players seem to agree that 2000 is the best setting. To do this go ahead and pull down the console with the ` (tilde) key. Then type in this “cl_crosshairscale 2000” without the quotation marks. This the most agreed on setting to getting accuracy but still being suitable for up-close firefights. I want to add that it is perfectly legal in servers and even leagues to have the crosshair size changed. Here are the sizes to give you an idea.

Medium = 1000

Large = 800

Small = 2000 (most players prefer this)

Ok, now that you have a smaller crosshair it might be just a little harder to see. So, brighten it up. Type this in the console “cl_crosshairusealpha 6” without the quotation marks.

The default setting is 1 for your reference.

After setting these you might want to bring down your mouse sensitivity since you are moving a smaller
crosshair. Most players move it down just about one whole notch.

actually although most users prefer small , the worlds best like rambo for instance uses large. Ksharp uses medium. Its mainly self preference and it dosen't get you more headshots.

It's a very good point, things like this are personal preference along with mouse sensitivity etc. You want more headshots? Practice, then practice some more, there is no quick solution.
