Etymology of announcing headshots, double kills, multi kills, etc [closed]

I used to think that the origin of headshot, double kill, multi kill,... feature come from cross fire - an online game. Thanks to this answer, I re-think about the origin of this feature. I see that the mod called Quake sound is used to add this feature to Counter Strike. So I think that the origin maybe from the quake game. But after some research, I see that the headshot announcement may have come from Unreal Tournament instead.

What game first used announcements like headshot, double kill, and multi kill?


Solution 1:

1 and 2 are easily answered in one answer:

The sounds are a combination of both, Unreal Tournament and Quake.

The kill streaks and headshot sounds are from UT and other sounds like Impressive, Holy Sh*t, etc are from Quake.

3 is too broad... There are too many mods out there doing equal stuff and they're all different. Basically every mod has sounds for:

  • several kill streaks
  • multikill (2 kills in 2 secs)
  • headshot
  • teamkill

...everything else may vary depending on the mod and game.
