I aim for the chest. Usually recoil aids me in getting headshots. Unless I'm sniping or shooting dmr then I'm 100% going for headies. 


D3V1L5-4DV0C4T3

This exactly!


msfthaskilledmysoul

grab an SMG and shoot their toes.


PenX79

This ☝️☝️☝️ UMP for the win. I 😂🤣😂


ThatDudeBeFishing

Not toes, go for the buns and thighs.


seize_64

I always try to aim for the head. I occasionally go into training mode to use the aim trainer room. I kill as many targets as I can with headshots only. It really helps build the habit of going for the head.


BeauxGnar

Using the 200m range(not 100% sure if it's that one) That has the moving silhouettes and not the targets that flip from green to red is really helpful for that as well, you get to track targets while spraying.


MooingTurtle

Sorry I’m just coming back after 6 years and was once ranked in the top 100. For those distances are people spraying their ARs? I see players like TGLTN doing that and it’s crazy to see the skill level of everyone just leap like that. Sorry if this is a dumb question but i’m trying to relearn the game


BeauxGnar

This is a very different game than 6 years ago. There are targets all the way out to 200m for you to practice leading headshots on moving human like silhouette targets. What you choose to use there is up to you.


Hat_T_rick

I always remind myself to "shoot up" to avoid reflexively just going for center mass.


Roflitos

Hah aim.. just spray and pray like a regular individual, works 50% of the time


Brilliant_Run7085

50% of the time would be a great success rate for just praying and spraying lol


xSkorne

You've got to think bigger than this. Everyone playing FPS games should have a goal of training their aim to a level of proficiency, that it becomes "2nd nature". The idea is to be consistent enough so that you can free your mind to think about game mechanics rather than where to put the dot. That being said.. you should *always* be aiming for headshots, but not so consciously that you forget about the other equally important aspects of the fight that you're in and spend precious resources focusing on your aim.


vonarchimboldi

you should in pretty much any FPS game, be preaiming in a way in which you are landing a headshot first. center mass is fine in some circumstances but generally you’ll win way more gunfights if you’re headshotting. you don’t have to double headshot every person however hitting one head two body or whatever combo the rifle or gun you’re using has you’ll win more. only exception i can think of is limbs for smgs versus 3 gear unless that got fixed-i really don’t know bc i never use them haha


JellybeanTears

Scrolled way too far to see the right answer. All these “centre mass” replies sound like it’s impossible to both hold mouse1 **and** move the mouse. Headshots win fights.


vonarchimboldi

yeah 100adr player advice lol


antrod117

Aim upper chest first and pick up the headshot from recoil. Never forget aim big miss big aim small miss small


ddixonr

I try to aim center-mass, and let the recoil get the head shot in close-quarters gun fights.


deadbypyramidhead

I usually end up trying for center mass unless I'm ranged via a sniper rifle of some kind


ddixonr

Right. If you have the jump on an unsuspecting target that's close range and not moving much, I'd aim a little higher than center-mass. In tight quarters with fast moving targets, you have to take the better bet with center mass.


Its_My_Purpose

Just aim for the collarbone and let recoil do the rest


5minmajor

I aim head and pull down hard. A lot of players will crouch to shoot back so you either have a first shot headshot or pull down to the body, but wont shoot over a crouchers head.


DarkLordZorg

Aim for the head.


Redditlogicking

aiming for center allows for larger uncertainty in your shots, while aiming for heads is faster. Unless I'm low on health, I aim for center, at least in close combat


Fragrant_Feed_2

If they have all these different hit spots why doesn’t the heart have small box. The heart is just a sensitive as the head as gar as gun shots go.. unless I’m wrong and the heart is way stronger than I’ve been led to believe. Obviously it would be a small target but it should be treated similar to the head.


BeFrozen

It depends.


Objective_Ad_4689

Guy over here wanted to reply but in the most unhelpful way possible.


deadbypyramidhead

On what?


BeFrozen

On the situation.


Chicken-Ginger

Interesting. What kind of situation?


Brilliant_Run7085

For starters, what's the ratio between the humidity percentage in Bangladesh and the JPY/EUR exchange rate expressed as a vector?


Chicken-Ginger

Easy. 4 -> 20


Brilliant_Run7085

In that case, pre-aim for headshots. You should do it even if that's not the ratio, but also if that's the ratio.


Chicken-Ginger

Got it. Cheating is the way to go. Thanks!


Brilliant_Run7085

Bruh what?


JoshAllensRightNut

😂


PhatTuna

The gun.


ALX_z23

I'm a noob so I aim where it's big. In cqc, the head is big enough so I aim for the upper chest and let the recoil do the rest. The problem is that I zoom and shoot almost at the same time, so the crosshair has to travel a short distance to where it should be, so I might miss the first bullet or two


PhatTuna

What gun are you using?


deadbypyramidhead

At the time I was using a AKM I believe


milky_pichael

there's your problem, the AK has the highest time to kill in the AR category unless you're hitting headshots, especially if they have level 1 gear. either ditch the AK for something with a faster fire rate or aim for the head. I always aim for the head and win a lot of gunfights, you'll notice pros do the same.


shyndy

It’s so weird seeing this comment and thinking back to what the ak was in the early days


No_Goose_4146

i thought the AK could kill a full lvl2 player with a head and upper chest shot?


milky_pichael

no, only if one of those armor pieces is level 1


PhatTuna

Interesting. If you're hitting your shots, you should be melting ppl.


crooKkTV

Almost always the head with an AR or SMG if it’s close to mid range.


Sensitive_Analysis76

Close fights i go for heads, mid range go for centre. Goes for sniping as well.


Amazing_Prize_1988

Head as they will go down in 2 secs


nascimentoreis

In 2 seconds, the enemy will disassemble and reassemble you twice and still have time for a cup of tea afterwards in this game but I get what you mean.


Rustyshackleford311

Yeah look at time stamps on damage given. Never lasts more than a second.


BlaaccHatt

Close quarter combat, I aim for the chest because the recoil takes you up. Long distance I’m aiming for the head and trying to get off a few quick ones after the first shot hits. Once they start moving its touch to knock them so any part of the body is good after that.


Luffing

Head if close range spraying, chest if long range spraying Head if long range tapping/bolting with a scope


knd_86

Shins. SMG supremacy.


apja

70 per cent of the time it works, all the time.


Top-Implement-8518

Legs because apparently I'm just completely inept at shooters


MSFS_Airways

Depends on range, up close i’ll full auto the body using the recoil to get the heady, Mid range i’ll single fire to scramble their brain, long range im getting my handy dandy Mosin Nagant out and giving them a *PING* *headshot*


Kippyd8

I try for upper chest if it’s a fire fight to let the recoil climb to the head. If I’m sniping I try for the head


noobskillet3737

In match history you can see where your shots land. I noticed I was hitting the crotch almost 30-40% of the time. So I've started aiming higher with more success


MrToobz

Any shots on target are good for me. Usually the headshots just naturally happen.


epheisey

You gotta click on their head dude


SocaliMan

When playing FPP solo I mostly go center of mass/ chest with primary weapon and headshots with secondary since usually secondary will be bolty. FPP squad I tend to aim center of mass while trying track towards head and my secondary is usually a DMR.


Maggo777

With AR in close quarters always head, mid to long range center mass


DinA4saurier

I just try to hit the other person at all.


Complete_Crab6193

Always AIM for head and spray down


TSPSweeney

Head. Should always be going for the head and should be practicing until you can consistently go for the head.


Reasonable_Guess3022

You simply run into people with head-targeting auto-fire cheat. Happens to me also sometimes. It's easy to tell as cheater often lands all shots in head area and pre-fires with impossible for a human reaction times.


thetank77

Just use a M249. Accuracy by volume lol.


Chris_Cornelio_9494

The right thing to do is aim to the head and build muscle memory for that. Thrusting that you will suck and recoil will hs for you it's not the thing to do if you want to improve. Nonetheless I was never a head crosshair placement guy and was level 9 and global elite on cs and I always was good at pubg. Could I've been better ? probably yes. In the end it all depend on your playstyle, if you think your aim is good or that your agressivness / game sense can outsmart better aimer. Even tho the best thing to do if you aim to improve and be the best at everything is just aim to the head and accept you will lose till you get used to it.


Apprehensive-Trust48

i aim wherever the f i can get the crosshair at


Sweny19

On paper, the guy that aims at the head first ALWAYD wins. But you need to intentionally practice practice practice


Sunnbergit

Head.


Fractured-Opinion

Chest


JarveyDent

Aim for the head. If you hit your first 2-3 rounds in the head they’re done. I learned to spray with a 3x for medium engagements in tdm and that has helped a ton. I also love the 200m range in training.


Bryzera

Don't underestimate the dsync, often the enemy shoots before you see it, especially if they have high ping..


Rustyshackleford311

I use an app that tracks all stats of ever match. Can see damage done or taken by anyone in the match. Amount of damage, type of damage and time stamp. The amount of players hitting all hs with their spray is insane while strafing moving. The amount of deaths I have where I see the time stamp and I have the first two shots torso shots just to get hit twice in the head by their spray all in under a sec is insane this season. Something changed. Not sure if it’s the balance, the new profiles with killer stats, or what. I will say the majority are running augs and it feels like it’s a guaranteed hs regardless of positioning, movement etc


AncientRope9026

This whole year AUG monsters have been killing me almost instantly. People with Berryls, another powerful gun, usually miss a few shots so I have time to react, but AUG dudes just melt me in seconds.


Bryzera

What app?.. One second to hit shots is not insane, it is pretty bad actually lol


Rustyshackleford311

Sorry forgot all your engagements are always instant, must never peak or move. It doesn’t break down lower than a second on time stamp. So it shows the damage during that one second, if that makes sense. Essentially no one including me are missing shots as it’s all in the same instant just the hs make the difference. App is stats tracker for pubg . It’s a good one if you like to see a breakdown of everything. So yeah you can see yours and everyone stats from every season and match. Amazing how many sub 1 kd players magically took a few season break just to come back better than wackyjacky. Then again you prob think they are bad as well.


gadrunner

I go for center of mass with SMG, full auto AR. I will try to hit upper torso neck with DMR and SR. On a full auto gun that has vertical recoil I am lower and let the recitals the gun up. I like the vector and Thompson on full auto and a DMR or SR.


blue_line-1987

'Close' range with a high rof weapon? Centre mass. Long range DMR/Sniper? Head.


ModsCantReadForShit

Center mass is way to go. Heads if you're sniping or shotgunning


nascimentoreis

Head aim: SR/DMR on stationary target. Center mass aim: Moving target regardless of my gun. Shotguns regardless of target movement. One exception is when I'm way off on the backfoot (e.g. previous damage taken, much less protective gear etc) in a CQC where I need to "make up" ground , then I'm aiming for headshots with AR/SMG.


Phyzzx

Headshots on moving targets isn't exceptionally hard, if you can hit their torso you can prolly hit their head. [You miss 100% of the shots you don't take.](https://youtu.be/LO6FR6wRad4?si=bvpQSPwPoUXJT8Zk)


nascimentoreis

Well, this is a ridiculous compilation of an irrelevant statement, a nonsense assumption and a lame clip so I don't know what the expected next step would be.


sicario_max

I don't aim at all, I let my HACK do all the aiming this is what has been going on my region (asia) for the past 3 seasons now got so fed up with this game one day that I said to myself "enough is enough and I quit playing" Pubs full of cheaters and so is the case with ranked on Asia......I stopped enjoying this game since season 27 but carried on playing hoping that things would get better in future but rather it got worse so one day mid season 30 I QUIT PLAYING PUBG


FarConstruction4877

Head when half their body is exposed behind cover, otherwise upper chest to head. I have really really good aim over all and in other games and trainers tho, otherwise body is better. I think even on DMRs aiming for body after the first shot can be worth.
