You know what I miss...
I miss dumb rockets in video games. Nothing is more satisfying than hitting a moving target by leading your shot just right. Sure it takes skill and a bit of luck, but it is so rewarding, especially at range.
These days it's all dreary fire and forget tracking rockets which are boring to the user and very lame to the person getting hit who can't really avoid it.

1 ReplyIn Mech Gaming Armored Core is so guilty of those homing missiles. Blast left as fast as possible. Ugg boring and cheap.

*Posts lyrics to the song Happy Jack* I miss them being called "the bazooka" and choosing them just to blast other people.

In games like CoD where you can spawn over and over with them I agree it's kind of cheap, but that's CoD in a nutshell. Halo still gets it.

Edited by Sandtrap: 1/16/2014 5:12:26 PMI loved Half-Life's rocket launcher. We need more like that. You could make that rocket go just about anywhere. It was laser guided, so you fire it out and lead the rocket with the laser. The funny thing was, the rocket could turn on a dime so you could pull some nifty tricks with it.

Have you heard of IR Flares?

1 ReplyEdited by Ad Hoc: 1/6/2014 4:02:39 AMYou know what I miss? You, Happy Jack. For years, I've complemented you in every thread I see you in. I'm almost always on a different account, so you've never known it was just me. But you-- [i]you[/i] are a rock. A FIXED point of reference in my life. Without you, my life would have no meaning. So, I will continue to say things like "You're awesome, Happy Jack", and "I haven't seen you in a while, Happy Jack!", and you still won't know it's really me...but it WILL be me. It will always be me. And I will always love you.

Takes more skill to snipe a pilot out of a chopper at long range with a very low power scope
