No skill required - R.P.G

ryan d ale · 05-06-2007, 12:27 PM

I was just in a MP game on TB and in the US LAV.

Anyway an MEC L-AT comes up behind me goes prone and fires and hits me. He wasn't extraordinarily close (which could explain a normal hit). But the suggestion is: only firing AT from crouch and standing (I'm not sure if prone is realistic) and deviation.

I believe, in reality, that you would fire AT from whatever position you dont get killed in - even prone, no matter how uncomfortable/awkward it is.

im think this only applies to the insurgents but firing an RPG from standing or even crouching is very inaccurate

the rpg of mec will be replaced by an rpg19 i think .

Don't worry, L-AT will be limited in 0.6...so people wont be wasting RPGs on you anymore...just don't come complaining about assault rifles then...

Just because I noticed it whilst playing... I usually do well enough to not complain

Anyway it's just being able to pull it out and launch it (in a minimal ammount of time) after changing positions too. Standing to prone *fire* no time for adjustments. I could understand if the RPG had a guidance system (but it doesn't)

aiming an RPG prone would be extremely awkward, i dont think you could aim effectively and still maintain a safe firing stance for yourself or those around you.

Even if the backblast burned your feet off?

You'd have to be laying on your side and firing perpendicular to your body I'd imagine.

The only way you can safely fire a LAW prone is like this:
