Gah my Eve continuity sense is tingling. Why are missile launchers rockets? I want missiles to lock and seek with slow RoF- rockets unguided- High RoF. Why the inconsistency? Not necessarily saying change mechanic to lock-on, just if you don't, change name to rocket... Please? |

Any feedback- or am I just displaying OCD on detail |

Thought eve rockets were only "guided" lore-wise by virtue of launcher tracking the target and firing at a solution that equated to rocket impacting enemy. Hrrm.
Either way- I think the idea for limited lock-on for suits/vehicles (maybe only lock-on while zoomed for another layer of difficulty....) and smaller explosion radius/dmg- for an additional missile module. I don't think we should get rid of these modules- just add true missiles. |

Would it be OP to lock on small missiles to suits- with limited blast radius/missile turn speed. |

Garrett Blacknova wrote:They could make a Missile turret that basically works like Swarm Launchers, with lock on for vehicles only. You could hold L1 to mark and lock a target, then once locked, the missiles will track the locked target. If it gets far enough from your reticule, you lose the lock. If you don't lock on, you can blind-fire them with no guidance, but the slow travel speed means they wouldn't be very effective against an alert enemy.
Then rename the current missile turrets "Rocket" instead.
Exactly :
Missile = slow projectile- decent guidance- mostly direct damage with limited splash radius.
Rocket = fast projectile- no guidance- moderate to high direct damage + decent splash radius |

So any crowd impetus behind naming change/ turret type expansion- either or both? |

So really we have 3 possible turret paths - I vote for all. Guided missiles, rockets (current turret), and an (essentially) wire-guided AV variant. |

Could also have painted targets for guided missiles. IE scout paints with TP- then the missile is locked- scout loses paint, lose lock. |
