Throwing Knives being a kill with a headshot (US)

[Gone 736 / 9,093]

I have been suggested to make headshots with throwing knives a kill 

Please respond if you are active on Surf RPG 

If you have any problems on why it would be bad or reasons why it would be good please comment them

I'm voting no mainly due to the fact that there is a bug which allows people who have throwing knives to kill people with spawn protection or people who are "AFK" this would mean someone could just sit at spawn and constantly throw knives hitting their heads and gaining a lot of levels. If this bug was to be fixed (Idk if it has already but please tell me) then I'd probably change my vote to yes. This is a good idea and would help lower ranks to progress to the higher ranks.

If this vote is about throwing knives only doing damage while hitting the head then no.

If this vote is about the glitch where throwing knives always appear a headshot then no.(Because it is not true)

The vote is about 1 throwing knife killing if its a headshot

I would have to say no still. We have Zeues for a reason and if we DO add the Zeus Regen upgrade then it would be totally overpowered with the both of them.

Zoose doesn't 1 shot at max health anyways. And throwing knives are harder to land, zoose is hit-scan. You ever try to consistently land throwing knife headshots? It's very difficult. I'd say it's worth the difficulty reward.
It can be an acquired skill, adds another dynamic to the game.
Also, IIRC, the thing with throwing knives > spawn protect is that Throwing Knives use a different hook in the code for damage. Should be easily patchable.
