Solly item.
Direct hit: smaller AoE, higher damage and speed.

And his name's Jane Doe.
And Demoes are catching up!

Yeah, interesting if it'll be that or the pickaxe. I imagine he'll get the Bugle as a silly shotgun replacement type thing.

Direct Hit is probably gonna make all the snipers like cbre and joel go soldier and annoy the fuck out of all the people who could actually hide from their scopes ;-;

As far as I'm concerned, Sniper is the only class you really can't avoid.

Direct Hit will make all the people who were annoyed the fuck out of by snipers like cbre and joel go soldier to kill those who hide from behind their scopes.

Well the idea is that they're giving him stuff he doesn't already have.
Re: I mean... Solly update thread - Maxon - 12-15-2009
Now this was an expected upgrade for the Soldier unlike the surprise out of no where one the Demo got. Could be good, but honestly, it's doubtful to pull me in for too long aside from the initial gathering of the weapons. I was hoping Soldier would get something interesting. Guess they got two more days to surprise me.
Re: I mean... Solly update thread - CaffeinePowered - 12-15-2009
New rocket launcher is mainly for people who are ridiculously good at aiming it, smaller AOE but if you are good enough to hit with it, you hit harder
Re: I mean... Solly update thread - Benito Mussolini - 12-15-2009
I realised... smaller AoE would mean no rocket jump.
Worst. Weapon. Ever.

It won't be the same at all. It's just that soldiers will have to aim at someone, and not in the direction of someone. It will make splash damage avoidable at some point.
This item will actually be very good for sollies that can hit air targets, and bad for people that generally spam rockets around people.
Which, mind you, is not a bad way to play soldier, it is very effective, just like a sniper uses his spamstick or a demo sticky-spams.
I can see this rocking heavies, and maybe even sentries, but other classes would most probably laugh at it.
Re: I mean... Solly update thread - beep beep diglett - 12-15-2009
this seems alot better than either of demos new weapons (to date), itll probably replace the vanilla rocket for alot of people

You're just mad because you can't outrun a bullet to the face.

I think this weapon may break my suckage at soldier...the whole concept behind the main RL is the spalsh damage and your ability to manipulate it to your advantage..a faster rocket means I can actually hit people directly with much more accuracy.
Re: I mean... Solly update thread - Wedge - 12-16-2009
Yeah, it remains to be seen how much this affects the rocket jump. Even if it doesn't totally nerf it, it may do more self damage as well. That would make it a pretty significant tradeoff.
