    Oh BOY it's an ARCADE GAME! (I rocket hopped)

    not once... twice.

    Guy fired an AT weapon at me. I watched it... waited... HOPPED! And avoided it. Timed it just right.

    Another time I was prone... saw in my scope a rocket approaching.... waited... waited... H O P P E D !

    yep... over it again.

    Both of them would have nailed me.


    I also DODGED a freaking tank shell in my tank. Was stationary aiming him up... range about 400m. He fired at me. I could see the trajectory of it moving toward me... so I pull back. Thing whizzes right by my tank.

    I think the mps speed of these projectiles should be, well, not so easily guaged by the NAKED EYE. LOL.

    I hate when people do that lol. There will be a support guy firing at me off in the distance, I'll pull out my AT launcher and fire, only to have them jump over it :cry: .

    I think its pretty fair though, if someone is quick enough to react to the rockets firing at them they should be able to dodge it. 95% of the people I fire them at just sit there and allow the rocket to smack them in the face.

      I think it's already known that BF2 is an arcade game at heart. It has some realistic elements to it, but all in all, it's not a simulation. Does this mean you should be able to "rocket hop?" No, not really. But no one should play the game expecting a detailed simulation of military combat.

        LOL- put another quarter in the arcade....

        I think the rocket speed and shell speed should be a lot faster. A lot.

        And Tysn, hell that mighta been me if it happened today. I decided to throw in the towel and start bunny hopiing like the rest of the ****'s.

          you can see em in RL not that this is a sim, it is arcade, a very progressive arcade.

            AT rockets are too slow, a freaking model rocket is faster than one of those.

              The answer is clear, Anti-Tank kits should have unlockable model rockets.

                about arcade and sim, MOST sim game do not have a whole lot of audience, and most "reality mods" ended up as a failure. back in OP flash's day, the popular games were HL and quake and UT, and that says something.

                  that is soo true... but still the slower it is the better you can turn it

                    its more fun to prone under vehicles. there were a couple of times when i saw a humvee screaming at me, so i proned, he drives over and past me, i get up and shoot and kill him through the opening in the back of the humvee.

                      Love diving between tank tracks when they are coming at you as a specops and plant some C4 on the bottom.

                      Though i've managed it only once.

                        If you're a good AT, you will guide it right to their feet, so even if they hop, it blows up right under them and blamo, they're toast.

                          You took a specific and generalized. Your point is meaningless. Me hopping over AT rockets and dodging tank shells *with my tank* is stupid and twitchy. Two specific things that are a problem in the game.

                              ehe good one. i like to place c4 in an unmaned enemy chopper and wait till they hop in and fly away a bit, then click, a puff of smoke, a little message on the screen and the copter goes where ever it wants.
