Insurgent RPGs (not about accuracy)

Soulis6 · 2007-03-21, 16:17

Since the insurgents are supposed to be using old/crappy weapons, how about a small chance of a dud whenever you fire the RPGs? Most people will probably hate the idea but how about every time you pull the trigger (say 5%) your RPG will fire off but not explode on the target or possibly even explode unfired killing you.

Just a thought

I would hate the idea, cause with the crap deviation and the duds they would become useless, unless its at point blank.

Well i was thinking already that they are supposedly fixing the deviation on RPGs for 0.7 anyway, and that on al basrah I usually see squads of 6 all with rpgs so i cant feel too bad for the insurgents (not to mention the fact that they rarely, if ever, lose on basrah as it is)

If the deviation is fixed the nwhy not, give them a chance to fight, instead of eating 12 rockets!

Just thinking of things to make the insurgents more.........insurgent like.

mmmmmmmmm....possibly, but mybe not

Soulis6 · 2007-03-21, 17:24

hmmm if its going to be a limited kit then it should be worth the limitation so nevermind.

RPG-7's have a surprisingly long shelf life. Just like most soviet small arms they're extremely rugged. There have even been tales of Viet Cong weapons caches being discovered and the rounds still worked.

To do this to the game in addition to the already random deviation (also unrealistic) would be a complete farce to the class.

Nothing should happen to players that they are not responsible for or able to avoid.

So no.
