Ok, I started playing this man its intense and insane at the same time. I love the battles I just find it hard to get kills. It seems like somebody emptys half a clip or barely shoots me and im dead meanwhile I have to empty a whole clip before they go down. Is upper body mainly headshots the trick to getting alot of kills?

U must always aim for the upper body and keep moving.
Yea its mainly upper body. But move around while shooting him. It really helps alot if u move around. If u just stand there while he is moving around he will kill u first.

USe a bullzeye and tag them. If your chimara go into rage mode, it increases damage.

Just run and shoot, run and shoot. And throw a grenade at there head.
Its always fun to throw a grenade across the whole map and hitting someone, done that a couple times. Pretty funny.
But you just gotta keep moving and watch your map for people coming up behind you.

yeah, rage increases A LOT of damage... a full bullseye with rage can take on a lot of humans.
but like many other games, u gotta know the details and the tricks to winning.

Please don't take this the wrong way, I am not having a go at you. You sound pretty much like a noob (haven't played online shooters before?), everyone starts out like that and gets better. Once you are out of the noob phase you pretty much pick up most games straight away and by-pass noob status on that game. I was a noob for a couple of weeks on socom 1 when I first started, but then I joined a clan and the leader taught me how to play online. Best bet to improve is to get someone to teach you in-game as it's too hard to teach it via the forums (IMO).
The FPS and TPS (Third person shooter) genre's are probably the two genre's that you don't get a huge advantage by mastering the game offline first unlike racers etc. Mainly because the AI in the offline mode is never anything like the online game whereas with a racing game, if you master the tracks offline you can jump straight online and kick *** on that straight away.

Aim for the head or make sure your weapon is bigger lol thats what i do

find a favourite weapon, know WHERE it spawns in each map, and where each spawning points for different items are.
This is because when ur dueling, and the last thing u want is running backwards over something like the Dragon and then screw urself over (if u have autoswitch on)
it's all about doing what's right for the situation. Whether it be running sideways with a rifle, popping around a corner with the shotty, or maintaining the distance with the fareye. Always have a backup plan and be aware of your surroundings too.
I know you asked specifically about the headshot thing, but people seemed to answer that question pretty well. So I thought I'd add a little extra for you to think about.
my 2c
upper body means faster kills and headshots. lower body kills take a while and if you're playing deathmatch, usually when you're shooting at somebody lower body, another guy behind you is shooting you upperbody meaning you'd probably die first and you'd end up with the 2 pt assist.

I did that today lol!
It was on Manchester 32 man.
I entered that church thru one of the skinny ends and went up the vent.
Bounced a spike bomb off the wall boom 4 kills!
Never did that before lol, and probably won't again.
