Re: Starter helps for Noobs - PK Rockets

Hm, yeah many don't, which is a bit sad. But I believe the in-game description actually tells you that you can do that.

**Holy** · 06-28-2008, 10:50 PM

It does? I usually don't pay attention to the in-game descriptions. I'll start paying attention to them though.

**LordKelvin** · 06-28-2008, 11:21 PM

Admittedly, most of them are utterly useless, and many are vague. There are a select few, though, that are useful.

I usually add an extra 2 or 3 metres because increased slant already means an increase in length of rocket to travel is needed. (think of it as geometry and a right-angled triangle - the floor being the base, the wall being the vertical line and your rocket the slant/hypotenuse - if the vertical line goes up (because you're aiming above the wall) then you need a longer line (distance of rocket travel) to hit that wall.) Then you add an extra few metres to get it passed the wall and on top of the guy you want to explode, and you're cackling like Lyra after he's got Bom's tags on the monorail...

I will never stop posting this vid until the day I die. Me likey. Very much.

Edit: Be sure to check out the video response by Bom.

I usually resort to unscoped rockets because I suck at scoping them. Hopefully, after watching this video, it'll be a bit easier.

Bommando knows rockets!

Listen to Lyra, Learn the art of rockets!

**Mech__Warrior** · 07-28-2008, 06:26 PM

I need these skills Bommando has, someone please show me the way!

P.S: The rocket should count as an explosive kill.

AHAHAHA, no.

**Mech__Warrior** · 07-29-2008, 08:17 AM

What? They explode like a frag grenade, so why not? I wonder if the Engineer's weapons count as well.

**LordKelvin** · 07-29-2008, 10:37 AM

If rockets counted as explosives, everyone would earn all the explosive gallantry pins and badges in less than an hour.

**Mech__Warrior** · 07-29-2008, 01:30 PM

EXACTLY!!!! They're so hard to get.

**LordKelvin** · 07-29-2008, 03:06 PM

That's the idea.

Nice video.. but why did you have to tell everyone??

and I thought explosive pins were difficult to get.. But you need to be more defensive minded to get them, and lay some mines on Belgrade and wipe out the APC a few times when its full! I'm totally useless on Armor maps, but left a few mines on a silo recently, and took out a walker, a tank and an APC within minutes.. I'm getting better!
