The funny thing is i finally got a rocket launcher (thanks too Booi on the Ahazi server) and i was thinking if a little ole launcher pistol makes that big of explosions this thing must blow the crap out of everything, but was very dissapointed too find out its not much of an explosion at all but when it hits it is capable of doing very heavy damage to anything in a 10 meter radius(best i've seen was on a rebel general i hit for 1500!), unfortunatley its very inacurate and the damage is very speratic.

Try using flamethrower and shoot against something uphill. The point blank shot will explode your screen and smoke will engulf your entire character. Sound will stutter... graphics will freeze. This occurs on mid-range systems.

we need an OPTION badly to curb the graphic generation for particles. This ALSO includes the butterflies, and the falling leaves which currently hampers gameplay quite severely

There is a midrange system for this game???


I thought you had to had a top of the line graphics card with at least 768-1gig of ram or you were screwed???


Get an upgrade, there is no such thing as a midgrade system for this game.

Not to sound rude, but you need to upgrade your system and stop complaining. I love seeing all the new graphics engines coming out. What do you want, Atari 2600 graphics so you will be system slowdown free? I replace my system every 6 months or soto make sure I have close to top of the line. Currently I have a p4 2.4 1g ram and a g-force ti4600. Game runs pretty dang good. Although getting close to time to upgrade since bigger and better things are out. It sucks but something we all have to deal with.

Please, for the love of God, don't take away the big booms and explosions! It's the best entertainment I get for being a Commando. I love my Lag, er, Launch Pistol and FT for no other reason. (Really, it's the only reason I like them at all.)


As a newly minted Novice Commando, I relish showing off the big booms, and appreciate the guffaws oflaughter that follow when my 'damage' numbers show (if I hit, that is).


Last night was priceless. Working on a seething bol crusher lair, my party graciously let me have the honors to finish off the lair in order to build HW xp. When that -8 damage floated up from the lair, half a dozen witnesses fell onto the ground in uncontrollable fits of laughter. It was awesome!

People picked t play a commando for lots of diffrent reasons and non of them can be wrong. I pick this class for the sole reason of the graphic explosions of our weapons. If they change this I will have wasted all those sleepless nights for nothing. Basically I WILL be pissed so if anything hopefully they just have an option for people who have computers that cant handle the graphics to turn them off (mine are all the way up) and just leave these special affects alone or even add more.
