Quote:#3: Anti-Infantry Usage
Swarm Launchers are the most limited weapons in Dust 514. I propose they gain the ability to lock-on to infantry. However! This won't come easy. Locking on to infantry would take somewhat longer than locking on to vehicles, and they wouldn't be able to fly directly at a dropsuit, only at its general direction (unless you were lucky, you would usually only deal splash damage). I'm not sure of the exact numbers for how long it takes to lock or how accurate the missiles are, but you get the gist of it. Also, with #2, you would still have to lead your target to some extent for the best results.
stupid idea
swarm launchers are not mean for infantry
if they ended up as an anti infantry weapon they will be abused and people will get stupid deaths from over 150 metres away and not even see it coming |

Your argument is invalid.
it is valid forge guns you can dodge swarms you can let them loose and sit back and watch them chase the infantry around the map
they would end up being a buffed up version of the flaylock pistols when they were good |

You just saw the word "anti-infantry" and started pouting like a child who doesn't want to listen to someone else's thoughts.
yes i read it you want missiles to go in the general direction of the target around it or atleast near by but given past experiance what makes you think CCP will get it right. to them around or near the target is bang on the target making it OP or 100 metres away from it making it useless
this idea is stupid and not what we need added to an already unbalanced weapon selection |
