The headbob drove me crazy too - I quickly installed a no-headbob mod. Forget the link, but google it and you'll find it.

Every creature will die with 1 or 2 shots to the head, even on master difficulty. l2p, noobs :p
And are you actually able to hit a Psi Controller once or twice in the head? ;)

Actually, if you're quick enough you can sprint right up to them and unload your whole magazine before they've got a chance to mess with your mind. I heard a rumour that controllers keep their brains in a bag, so I'm not sure if headshots should really do that much more damage to them.

If their brain is in a bag, then why do they have a head? Seems kind of useless to me, heh.
steo on 6/5/2007 at 15:12
I suppose it's because they are horribly mutated humans or something and the head remains, much like the way we have an appendix even though it's useless to us.
Bjossi on 6/5/2007 at 15:28
Well, mutated or not, it's hard to put your brain into a bag without cutting the head open first.
steo on 6/5/2007 at 18:30
Perhaps the brain was never in it's head in the first place.
Or more likely, the stalker who told me the rumour was making the whole thing up.
Bjossi on 6/5/2007 at 19:00
I think the latter is a whole lot more likely. ;)

Thanks, Aerothorn. Found it!
Also found this. Dunno if it works.
If you're suffering from wacky amounts of head-bob, try this:
1. Hit the tilde (~) key to bring down the console
2. Type "cam_inert" and hit enter to see what the current value is (in case you want to put it back)
3. Enter "cam_inert 0", and hit the tilde key to close the console
The headbob was really bugging me after I patched, so I poked around in the console until I figured how to turn it down -- mine somehow got set to 0.7 after I patched (not sure what it was before, but it seemed more extreme).
It seems to save the value once you've done it, so no need to do it again every time you play.
Setting it to 0.0 also seemed to make the response to mouse movements snappier, oddly enough.
For trippy fun, try cam_inert 0.99 :)

Are you guys just annoyed by the headbob or does it make you motion-sick?
