I... could be wrong, but I thought that was sarcasm on Sonlirain's part... :-\

But then again, a food-fightin' MMO FPS would be awesome.

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.
The only problem is that they have basically no splash range and are shitty splash weapons due to low RoF. The only way you can kill infantry with them is direct hits.

They are also pretty okay area denial weapons (as in, rockets hit nearby, OH NOES WE'RE BEING SHOT, RUN AWAY).
So funny.

I'm getting better results picking rocks up off the ground and clubbing them about the head.

Even my twin-bursters seem to be firing sparklers lately.

More like: rocket hits nearby, run forward before they can reload!

I just had an amazing hour of fighting. I've gotten into the habit of hopping onto continents with higher bonuses, and this morning Amerish happened to have a 50% bonus. Naturally, I was excited to combine this with both the double experience and the free membership bonus, so I jumped right over.

After piddling around for a little bit, I ended up defending a tech lab from five or six VS. I figured I'd just get some kills and bail, but I ended up dominating these guys. It was so bad that I was little flabbergasted, and am worried that I might get a temporary ban on suspicion of hacking. In just over an hour, I'd nearly earned 300 certs and they all ran before my lone wolf fury. It was awesome.

The best part was that I ended up killing a dude several times that had taunted me because he somehow found me hiding in a remote part of a base. Naturally, I taunted him back. He did not respond.


Unfortunately, I grossly underestimated the amount of space videos taken with Fraps consume, so my hard drive filled up with video before I could record much of the action.

On rockets...
TR and VS rockets actually have a larger splash aoe then the NC. This was because the NC rocket did alot of dmg before launch but little to no splash to compensate. Of course a few people got good at sniping infantry with them that TR and VS tears drowned the Striker to Nerf. Lowering the dmg to all other rockets but leaving the lack of splash...


This is the reacurring theame to ALL NC nerfs. People spend a good time learning how to use the AH Mustang. NERF. NC Harraser. NERF. And so forth....

No those that snipped with Rockets still do, but those that are not of that level are the ones that feel the nerf big time...

Is it just my imagination or is everywhere TR? They seem to be consistently almost 40% on Miller, while NC is only occasionally above 33, and VS way below.

It's not your imaginagtion. At least the double XP weekend has brought some people so we're not as badly outnumbered as usual.

Oh, great. Of course I picked the server where my empire is constantly outnumbered. Wonderful.
