Guess, you'd need more skill in using the SRAW instead of Eryx, if it wasn't wire guided?

(other words: balance?)

Why do you say it is in PR? I thought it was optically guided, with a little laser/infrared thingy that points at the tank, that can be detected and sets of the "alarm"?

its a fire and forget weapon. you follow the target for 2sec then fire and run away missile does the rest.

If the SRAW were realistically implemented it would mean that tanks would be almost useless, because the number of available H-ATs is about equal to the number of available MBTs. Several mods have working Javelin systems ingame, but they are killer for gameplay.

How does making it not wire guided affect the number of kits available?!?

i thought the minimum range of 25m quite interesting.

But only having to track a target for 2 seconds and then it guides itself sounds way too easy for PR.. and i prefer fun gameplay over realism.

Anyway there is an overhaul of the H-AT system in 0.7.. so best wait for that b4 asking why the H-AT is as it is.

PR Has access to that Javelin system but has thus far chosen not to use it because of A Balance and B. Bugs.
