Pending Make headshots quieter.

That's clientside so not what zyp's on about, but +1 to that lol
As for this suggestion, I agree on a headshot's secondary benefit being a quiet kill, however I'm just a little on the fence as to making it too quiet since every time I've heard the splatter I've also heard the drop of the body and weapons, I have to be real close for it to noticeably louder.
So all in all my experience is they're just as loud as a silent kill, but if possible the distance cut-off could be reduced, the quietening of the HS sound either way would be a negligible change in terms of people noticing if they're paying attention.
+1 cause it's harmless and benefits, in a small way, a sniper using a sniper like a sniper, rather than beaning a dude in a crowd and ducking away
Personally all I hear is the splatter, not to mention all the gibs flying all over the place making their own very audible squishy noises (those should also be disabled if this suggestion were to be implemented). I think it's rather silly I can hear a head get vaporized halfway across the map in some instances and be able to instantly tell where a kill took place.
At the very least all of the 3 suppressed T weapons should not cause the head to explode.
Quieter headshot/kill sounds like a great pointshop perk for silenced T-weapons
But I do certainly enjoy the comedy of talking to someone in a group and their head suddenly and noisily explodes and everybody scatters in panic
