Can someone alt-f4/disc if you headshot?

[Obsolescence 129]

EDIT: Extra question, if someone logs after taking a DMR round to the chest (8000 dmg according to DayZDB) wont they still be at 4000+ and be fully capable of recovery?

Some moron was target practicing at NWAFB today, in a Ghillie suit, on a bare hilltop with no trees around. I snuck up behind him and missed the headshot like a nublet. He either alt-f4'ed or disconnected after the DMR bodyshot knocked him unconcious, because he lay there unconcious for a couple seconds before standing back up, I put another round in him as he stood. No kill message, but my bandit kill count increased and when I walked to where his body had been, I could here the flies buzzing, but I saw his body sink into the ground and was unable to aquire my on Ghillie.

This was my first time ever seeing someone disc/alt-f4 as I rarely kill anyone (or see them), do you agree that that is what he did?

Back to my subject question, I was wondering if I had hit him in the head and killed him instantly would he still have been able to alt-f4/disc and deny me his suit? I mainly want to know this because I want to know how bad I should feel for missing my headshot.

Thanks, as always!

Yes they can, i see this on a daily basis. All they can hope to achieve by this is the pleasure of knowing you didnt loot their gear. When they spawn with -6000 blood on another server though, someone will loot it. So why do it lol ?

Since I only hit the body won't he spawn with 4000+ HP and be just fine, because the DMR does 8000 max to the body right?

You killed him and he DC'd.

Basically he sunk his body on your server, and will have to choose his sex on next login.

That's why you always burst with that rifle if they're in close range. Higher chance of killing them before they can DC. I murdered three people last night on top of a hill near Stary, the fourth disconnected before I could get to him.

Don't be afraid to spam it, if anything it will make them hit the deck because they think there's more than just you shooting at them.

A headshot with any gun is a kill. End of story. But, even had you killed him, you wouldn't have been able to take his ghillie suit.
