Compromise on the new weapons?

[Pollux]

People are overestimating how long it took to kill with the old guns, if the server was fine you'd be able to kill someone quite quickly as shown in the "DayZ Event" which had old guns. The only thing I see that needs to be changed is headshot damage, as the issue right now is that every gun can kill within two headshots.

I mean, an AR-15 does 40 damage meaning in 3 shots it will total 120 damage, killing anyone without kevlar. And with Kevlar that bumps up to 6 shots which is better. But the gun fires at 900 RPM, meaning it fires 15 rounds in a single second. You can open fire for 2 seconds and in that 2 seconds you only need to have an accuracy of 20% to get a kill on someone with Kevlar. I don't think 2 headshots to get a kill is really the issue when you only need 3 to the chest anyways.

It would be seven shots to kill to the chest with kevlar, as kevlar gives you an additional 150 hitpoints not 100. I think the amount of shots are fine just rate of fire and headshot damage could be decreased.
