I was wondering if weapons like the Assault Rifle will be capable of scoring headshot points? So far I’ve seen nothing to suggest they can, and I think that’s unfair. Automatic guns shoot bullets too! Maybe everyone is too busy holding down the trigger to try, so I’m not yet sure. Automatic weapons should have some kind of ‘headshot points’ surrogate, otherwise BRs and DMRs will have a major advantage, again.
Let me know what you think, thanks
The Storm Rifle and AR might have headshot multipliers.
I think you don’t understand the fundamentals of shooters.
There is a good reason Halo’s automatics don’t have head shot bonuses like precision weapons.

Please go on. I was under the impression that if you hit them in the head, it’s a headshot.

It would be horribly easy to just run up to someone with an AR aiming at thier head. The second thier shield goes they are dead. Now that would be stupid. and makes precision weapons pointless. Now if when the round from an automatic weapon hits the head it gets a slight bit more damage than a body shot that may work but probably not. Plus helmets are thick perhaps AR rounds can’t penetrate the helmet for a headshot.

Gameplay > Realism.
The difficulty of aiming at the head with an automatic weapon is no where near the difficulty of doing it with a precision weapon, thus the rewards should not be the same.
This statement is limited to the Halo universe. It is different in other games, thus why you do have head shot bonuses on automatic weapons in other games.
