Is it just me or half the time when I hit someone in the head my my bullet, and I see there medic come over and heal them it just bugs me. Is this a bug of some kind or what?
I think head shoots when they hit the brain stem or the cerebral cortex, wouldn't that make the death signal to the implant that should be transmitting the mind fire on the spot? And I know I messed the lore up on this but yeah would make more scene that its transmitting vs sending at the moment of death what happens if the signal is blocked or the implant fails due to dmg, I'm seeing holes  |

Yea, Head shoots normally render the clone completely dead, as would explosive damage.
Dropships need a buff. This way they can stop derping everywhere . ;_;

you could make the same arguement for any other body part that are essential to the body, remember that this is Dust where science is much more advanced than we can comprehend.

It's one of those common misconceptions in DUST... I Fell for one the other day assuming forge guns had a bonus to shield damage like a derp.
Clones have a health value before they get burnt out.. And no longer can be picked up. Headshots will sometimes max out the health point value and kill off the clone and sometimes won't.
You'll notice it takes a few shots to kill a "Downed" clone, as you work through its health pool. |

I have witnessed this before. Headshot with my Rail Rifle, I hear the wonderful *bong* (scared the hell out of me too because I wasn't expecting to hear it), guy runs over and picks him up. Even happened with my blaster the other day, though that could have been a different guy that got picked up. The Rail Rifle one was absolutely the same guy I headshot.

Yeah it always happens, don't know if it's a glitch or not. But I've gotten plenty of headshots only to see the guy get revived.

"Shots". It's head "SHOTS"...
Why the hell do so many people say head "shoots"? Sorry, but the addition of the one extra "o" just annoys the hell out me. |

I wish it was a consistent thing, you could even fit it in with the lore or whatever.
Excess damage done to the neural implant instantly severs the connection between consciousness and the clone body. This forces the clone to be terminated unable to be revived by nanite injectors and the user must redeploy in a new clone body.
The implant can become severely damaged from taking excess damage to the head as well as becoming damaged from weaponry that exerts excessive force such as explosives and high-powered rail and plasma based weaponry.
*By high powered rail and plasma based weapons I mean the Forge Gun, Railgun and Plasma Cannon.

I've had people get rezzed after a shotgun headshot. Quite obviously searing plasma to the neck is still healable.
Seriously though. You use a tank blaster and headshot kill a heavy, only to see a medic pick him up. Again. And again. And again.

Headshots should terminate the clone on-hit. They don't currently, which is just odd.

Now if the body is completely disintegrated from an explosion, then obviously the merc can't be revivied.
The "mind" depends upon network properties to exist. That is to say it requires an entirely unique and idiosyncratic arrangement of biochemical and structural elements to be what it is. This isn't true of other organs/systems where any number of somewhat similar arrangements are functionally equivalent. It can be assumed that nanites repair tissue using a set of heuristic criteria that draw upon relevant environmental cues such as adjacent cell types and applicable biochemical gradients used for development/organization. These criteria would be sufficient to repair organs to a functional state, but not to recreate the exact configural properties of said organ. Because the brain/mind relies on configural properties to be exactly what it is, repair of widespread damage is a problem that is many orders of magnitude more complicated.
Cheers,
