It's a general consensus from extensive testing that critical shot doesn't do anything.

Ok, so I decided to slice a rifle with tier 3 critical hit (10%). I did ranged hit until it hit critical. There was no damage difference between an ordinary hit and a critical hit. The same thing happened with headshot. No difference. Now the BH critical hit adds damage, but it does that without your rifle being sliced. Is its only purpose supposed to be that it increases your chance of hitting critical when a BH uses critical shot? In which case, the only people who would ever use this slice would be BH's. More testing is needed.

I'm pretty sure its bugged.

Don’t know about that…
According to a BH in my PA that get all Critical Shot slicing. It is working just fine.
BUT...
I have never tested it myself.

Many posts on this subject, but I believe your questions can be answered here.

I thought the NGE couldn't be any worse than the CU, but I was wrong.

+critical+ has little or no affect as far as the damage done to the enemy in most cases with one exception. For BH "Critical Shot" if it does land the +critical+ it does more damage than without it. The "slice" for critical hit does work as I do get +critical+ on random attacks with that gun but I've not noticed it changing the damage done to the enemy.

I would suggest everyone /bug that +critical+ doesnt actually do anything every day you see it not work.. because it SHOULD do something, like cause more damage.. but doesnt work at all for anyone but BH "critical shot".
