1: NC

2: NC and TR

3: NC, TR and Vanu

[Sonlirain]

So i gave it a go last night...

Spawning as NC in the tutorial...

Getting taught basic stull and raging at the "Now use hipfire/aimed fire mode." that took way WAY too long *At least 3 resuplies at the terminal and spraying at holograms later.*

Press Delete and respawn here.
Ok done.

Select a continent.
Done.

Now press insert...
HOLY S@&#.

I died in what appeared to be biolabs (Full of trees'n'muchrooms.)
Reclassed to HA and begans shooting people with the rocket launcher.
2 kills later i ran out of ammo.
OUTRAGEOUS!

Deleted the character and joined TR because NC rocket launchers suck.

Basic rocket launchers are pretty much all the same.

And it's meant to be an AV weapon used in conjunction with an engineer to keep you supplied with ammo. The fact that it clears the map of infantry is an incidental bonus.

You're raging because you can't carry around a tank cannon? Go back to TF2 for that. Rocket launchers are awesome weapons and I shoot infantry with them all the time. Their ammo is fine.

[Metalax]

Indeed. If you are wanting to use the launcher as more of a main weapon, cert into the missile ammo belt that increases your carried rockets.

That was my PS2 forums impression... then again i probably should say that the basic NC rocket launcher is overpowered tho.

Yes, nerf the NC even more, that will fucking help game balance. NC are still super-OP!

Didn't you see it kill infantry with one hit?
Totally out of whack.

It's an anti-tank weapon. It's going to do a lot of damage.
Plus, all of the rocket launchers do that.

Exactly.

[Silfurdreki]

All the default HA rocket launchers are exactly the same, except for their looks.

[DJ]

That's still no reason not to nerf the NC one. Hell, they should go ahead and replace all NC weapons with slingshots.

Fixed.

[DJ]

As long as it's nothing dangerous, like coconuts or cherries with pits still in them.

My 2cents on the basic rocket launcher as infantry weapon: I think it needs a half second ignition time or something, it's really annoying to get killed by these things in cqc. No problem with it used as a kind of splash anti infantry weapon, but I don't think it should be used point blank with any effectiveness.

[Silfurdreki]

They're not too bad, they'll get one kill and then die due to the long switch time of LMG's or the long reload time on rocket launchers. This also applies if they miss.
