    In a 1v1, they aren't really that cheap. I mean, a light can dodge them, a medium could take a few and heal, as well as dodge, and a heavy can take many(of course, I'm talking about splash damage in this). And while someone is spamming rockets, you CAN shoot them. The same goes for all the people that whine about the shock.

    If your a noob and your trying to reject, you'll get owned by single rox. I never had a problem with singles and I suck.

    I'm convinced that Single Rockets are the most difficult tactic to utilize in this game.

    Most of the players think its cheap, but I don't think they cheap.

    3 charge rockets are better than a single rockets. So it's not cheap. It's useful agains shock-rifle users cause you don't give then time.

    Thing is I have never used them and thing about the people that I played with most of the time..Tug,shock, and so on.

    Just the fact is I think that there very unskillful.

    The things is that 3 charge rockets are better than a single one.

    Single rockets are efective agains shock rifle users, since you cut their time to blow the core. I usualy use 3 charge rocketes but sometimes use single rockets when the situation requires it.

    I like to also point out I refuse to spam 3 rockets all the time for the sake of reserving ammo. I sometimes tend to be in a situation where single rockets are needed, and sometimes when its laggy your best bet is to single a few rockets to make sure your not completely lagged out. In general, spamming singles is gay, but hitting a few dudes with U-dmg, or shock, or sniper dudes just to keep them distracted is fine imo.

    Yeah I'm a big fan of "pray and spray"(spammage) as well.[face_raised_brow]

    Sim, not to start crap dude, but your good enough to not need that junk.
    Ammo is a stupid reason, I'm not even sure that I've ever even fired a sinle Rok in a legitimate combat situation. Now 2 maybe, Im big on letting go at 2, something alot of players do not do.I never had any issues finding ammo either. On top of that, in UC2 you have the dang melle weapon, and rechargable pistols for god's sake.

    I mean see where Im coming from: In UT, you start out with the crappy assult rifle and the projectiless shield gun.While arguable that the assult rifle is useless(in comparison to guns like Shock and Rox), so when you run out of ammo, most of the time you dont have the LUXURY of rejecting, or any of that crap. You MIGHT can SOFTEN a blow or two before your shiled runs out, but most of the time, if your caught with your pants down, then your through, unless you a shield nut(me).

    Not being diligent in ammo replinshment (pants down) is your own damn fault, thats not an excuse to spam....

    Remeber...I love ya Sim...

    One thing u have to remember i dont reject at all. I refuse to earn a kill by rejecting others of course that is my method of play. Another thing, I dont use melee either except to escape or to move around the map. My playstyle is what u say....restricted, but this is my choice.

    This thread is a perfect example of why this game tanked. Complaining!!

    Complaining about the network coding or maybe even the EMP combo is acceptable, imo. Don't complain about everything!

    I've heard numerous complaints about the Rockets, the Shock Rifle, the Bio-Rifle, the Grenade Launcher(people claim the grenades home in, which is bull), and most adrenaline moves.



    Maybe, if we are lucky enough to get a UC3, the devs will make everyone use just one gun and one adrenaline move!!! That'd be super!!![/sarcasm]

    Seriously, people that haven't played this game would think it's the worst game in the world based on the complaints about everything.

    ah, that's what I'm saying...it was pretty much the tone of my recent thread. Most of you people always attach these lame little rules of "honorable conduct" or whatever...and the silly thing is...it's not really necessary, as nothing in the game truly is an auto-win tactic. Please. This is a game; we're not samurai in ancient japan. (*the worst thing is what...EMP vs. Robots? Even there...you still have the choice to ...duh...NOT pick a stupid robot! Imagine that...there are only 3 robot characters...so it's not like that automatically eliminates a large chunk of the cast *on a sidenote...perhaps I'm lucky, but I've only been killed by an EMP combo exactly three times in my entire time of playing the game.)

    Once again...every time I skim over the threads here...I can't help but be reminded of all those annoying fighting game fans who complained about "throws are cheap", or "AHVBx3 is cheap...I don't use that when I play", or "Sentinel is cheap", or what the hell ever. It's just pitiful, and holds things off from being truly competitive. It's not a real competition if you're all going to play with kid gloves on....constantly pulling punches, holding back, etc.

    Yeah, I guess you'd all be just fine with the next Unreal having everyone be exactly the same, with ONE gun. Oh that is just SO exciting I can barely f**king contain myself. [face_rolling_eyes] It's like everyone here has the DBZ mentality of "I can beat you with only 25% of my real powerlevel."

    Single rockets are the primary mode of fire on the dam weapon. We all know that rockets are usually strong no matter what the game is, simply due to the nature of what the weapon is. This has got to be the most asanine thing anyone has ever complained about.

    Default RE: Single rockets

    Its our method of playstyle. I like working hard for my kills so sue me. Call it stupid or whatever for not taking full advantage of the game, blah. I could careless how you play, you dont mean anything to me as I dont mean anything to you. Regardless, having things home at you is simply gay, and everyone knows it. Also, my method of play changes per gametype. In tdm matches where ammo is how would you say not available often, its always smart to reserve your ammo instead of spamming and hoping to be lucky. In survival, you can go all out and you start off with ammo, so reserving ammo in that gametype is rather silly. Again im not flaming anyone I just hate when people knock our playstyle because we play a certain way.
