Magnum

[DarkShadow]

How many of you have the skills to kill a zombie with one shot mainly every time you shoot?

I can do it and my tip is to keep calm. I see alot of people freaking out when a zombie comes at them and start shooting very fast waisting bullets and dying half the time.

My tip is to stay calm and follow the head of the zombie and once the zombie realizes crouching and turning doesn't make you shoot, he'll run straight at you... that's when you shoot.

Shoot when you see a zombie come straight at you.



I hate when people say I can use a magnum and I give it to them and then they waste the bullets...

So post any tips and advice here.

Lots of people do zig zagin, crouching to make you miss, learn how they move and how to tell what their next move is, then fire for the head!

I miss 75% of the time when i go for head shots....so i end up aiming lower & taking 3 shots to kill a zombie.......some times more. :( Unless im in the zone then i hit about 60-70% of the time. ^_^

It really is just a matter of latency.
I used to think I really suck at zp, but then I realised I'm using a custom centered crosshair, which isn't centered.

I rarely get headshots every time. But when they're moving straight towards me (which isn't too unusual), then I've headshots 100% of the time, obiviously. The most important thing when using the magnum is concentration, though. When I've had a good sleep, then I can concentrate more and headshot very challenging targets. Right now I'm sleeping 4-6 hours on weekdays, which cause me to waste tons of magnum ammo at easy targets many times due to being tired.

Depends. If the zombies move straight without dodging, then headshots are guaranteed with good latency. Killing dodging zombies require more than a good latency, such as: aim, concentration, knowledge on where to aim.

Most people panic with a magnum because they rarley get one and they don't wanna die...

I run after shooting two times... and missing.
