Laser guiding/aiming for the RPG

First, the grenadier activates the laser-mode for the RPG. While using the laser-mode, the grenadier can't move nor do anything else. The lasermode makes each RPG-rocket travel faster. You can also lock on vehicles so the rockets will home into their target automatically.

pros:

• Makes the RPG more useful against moving targets.
• Boosts the RPG.
• Makes up for the currently hard guiding.

cons:

• Another thing that new players would need to learn.
• Might be overpowered in a way.

alternatives:

• Make the lasermode only available when the advanced RPG has been researched (would also make that research more useful).
• Let a scout mark a target. RPG-rockets will home automatically into marked targets.

 

laser can be set to mouse3 (clicking the scroll button)

 

What's wrong with mouse2?

 

1 question (which the previous posts have hinted at) if alt-fire activates the lazer then alt-fire either locks on or deactivates it but how would you tell which on to do?

like the idea in general though.

 

Hm... either hold mouse2 or let it lock on automatically?

 

Im for anything that makes the rocket launcher better against vehicles or atleast more practical...

 

I got a diffrent idea:
Rpg have 2 firing modes:
First is like bf1942 bazooka but rocket travels much faster
Second is like standard rpg but rocket travels slower and explodes after 10 sec

 

Alt click for laser guide, hold alt click on target to acquire lock then fire.

Fixed.

 

+1. Good suggestion.
