In GoldSrc Counter-Strike games, even if a player isn't killed by weapons, there is a small chance that the console says it's a headshot.Servers running custom sounds may signify a headshot kill with the 'HEADSHOT' Unreal Tournament sound, or the famous 'BOOM! HEADSHOT!' quote from 'FPSDoug.'.Before Counter-Strike 1.6, only the headshot icon appears if a player is killed by a headshot while the weapon does not appear next to it, after which the weapon icon appears alongside the headshot icon.Ĭounter-Strike: Global Offensive variant of the headhsot icon Trivia Headshot kills have their own unique icon next to the weapon used in the kill feed. Purchasing a helmet will neglect the aimpunch effects. Players who survived a headshot without a helmet will suffer from heavy Aimpunch (screen shaking upward) and makes weapon much harder to aim, especially when using sniper rifles. In Global Offensive, the headshot 'dink' sound can only be heard by the player who scored the headshot. In addition, headshots produce a more distinct 'dink' noise (with helmet) or splash sound (without helmet) compared to normal body shots. As the distance increases the chance of scoring single headshot kill also reduces due to weapon's damage dropoff. When a helmet is equipped however, the number of weapons capable of delivering a one-hit headshot kill is significantly reduced, but they are still capable of dealing high amounts of damage.

Most firearms (all firearms in Global Offensive) are capable of killing enemies without helmets instantly with a headshot at close range. Headshots can be performed by all weapons except grenades and knives (in Counter-Strike: Source and Counter-Strike: Global Offensive).
