Revert RPG

Do you like the new RPG?


I really dont like how sensitive the new RPG is, I think it robbed the weapon of it's skill. I want the RPG reverted to how it used to be, I think it was easier to hit with, once you learned to predict movement, and was generally a better fit in the empires universe and gren class.

I also think the idea in another thread for secondary fire being dumb-fire is a great idea.


votes plz, check all that apply

 

what is this "new" rpg you speak of? version number?

 

the one we've had since 2.25

the half life 2 one

 

This ones way better. With the last one, if you shot at a stationary tank just as it began to move, you would miss.

Plus RPGs arent powerful enough, don't carry enough ammo, and are slow(ish) to reload.

 

Grens need to start with more like 6 rockets, 6 mortars, 3 mines.

 

Oh god please please please don't give them an excuse to nerf the grenadier.
I miss the old RPG to some degree but oh my god don't tell them to nerf the gren again.

 

I dont see it as a nerf, I think you have to have an even steadier hand now cause the thing is so responsive.

 

Secondary does dumbfire? Did I read that right? Don't you know that NOT holding down mouse is dumb fire. secondary should do something, like use the scope (why the hell is it there?) or melee.

 

i never really used gren much before, so i dont wanna say much. the RPG is not hard to use. its particularly effective when ur moving your mouse to track the tank AND move around at the same time. i see some gren that is skill enough to hit a tank that retreated down the other side of the hill.

if they do make it harder to use, at least give more starting ammo.

 

I dont like how sensitive it is now becauses now you cant dodge enemys while guiding a missile. In 2.24 and earlier a quick reflex jump didnt really fuck up where you rocket heads.

 

this is what Im trying to get across

 

Because your rocket would miss anyway.

 

You need to keep your crosshairs on the target. It ain't hard.

 

This poll is bad. Its not black and white between the old and the new - the RPG should be scaled back to a middle ground.

 

Suck less? Isn't that the problem here?

 

old rpg was better by 1000000x

 

I like when people say things that aren't based on anything in reality. Bonus when they post it in Suggestions.

 

New RPG requires you to stand still and aim for 5-10 seconds straight, for a class that survives off mobility this isn't exactly ideal.

At the very least give us a right click that will act the same as the old one.

 

for me.. tracking is a lot better if your tracking with cross hair AND moving at the same time.. u move usually parallel to the tank's movement. this way, the RPG kinda follows a fleeing tank until tank is out of view or behind object.

RPG kinda depends on map.. if your on a large open map with no significant cover, its pretty much easy shooting for grenadier (of course that would mean no cover for the grenadier).. and vice versa. if on a map with lots of random structures, dead tanks, or rocks.. its harder for grenadier to track tanks and the RPG would probably just hit the random objects (but of course tank would have harder time killing the gren unless have some aoe weapons).

i rarely used RPG before changes were made, so i dont know if its better or worse. i use it more often now though.. so yeh
