Hey guys! I was just thinking about the Panzershrek and Bazookah the other day, and I'm not sure if I like them or not. To me they seem a bit weak, but that's probably them just trying to make the weapon more fair. Personally I would like it to be more powerful, but have an other disadvantage... What do you guys think?
 
Hmm there not weak, there one of the most powerful (providing you use them correctly), if you can use a bazooka the right way you can be the best on the feild,
dont underesamate (probz not spelt right lol) them

i agree, i get killed by them quite a bit, so they seem to be pretty effective too me.
 
They're not strong enough. I was playing in the gungame server earlier and this must've happened at least three times where I'd shoot the rocket and it would hit within 2 or 3 feet of them and they don't die. That's just unrealistic in my opinion.
 
@Kognit0 - They run out of Ammo quick but you can kill a bunch of people quicker,

@MilkBoy - They are strong enough its just the lack of people who can use them in a way that they are strong, im not very good with the bazooka but this one guy stands out, he was from the Strand Server when i was in DAM and he got like 6 kills in 1 death, So i think they are strong enough
 
i say practice the weapon in the gungame server, thats what i did :D
 
It takes a lot of skill and practise to be good at the rocket, but it is extremely powerful if you get a direct hit. It's a rocket, not a bomb.

I hate the panzer though, it takes too long to dismount it.
 
The bazooka is plenty powerfu, at least to me. When it was introduced back in 1.3, it was very week and the physics were terrible on it. But it is very effective now, and the splash damage can actually kill someone. On regular DoD, you have to shoot the ceiling to do enough damage to kill people (I don't know why they made it that way, but I guess they did not get the splash damage they were looking for).
 
Tell Francis Yu or Jeurgen that the rocket isn't any good. Those two are killers with it.

The problem with running out of ammo isn't because of the gun. It's because of your team. You should be calling out for ammo and your team mates should be dropping it for you. Otherwise you only get 4 shots in and then you have to scrounge for a new primary gun.

Rocket > Sniper hiding in dark corner.
 
I agree, the bazooka and panzershrek are really powerful, but it depends on how u use them. a roket can tank out anythink mid-range if u hit it right. But there dead useful against like peeps capturing the brij on Kalt, u could take out 3 guys easy with a bazooka/panzershrek.
 
Rockets are fun
I love seeing people's bodies fly like 100 feet into the air when you blow 'em up :D
 
I lurve me boomsticks!

Nothing more fun than shooting a rocket into the Left or Right bunker killing 2-3 guys.
 
Yep, they seem pretty realistic to me. You could have a rocket hit a yard or two to your side and still survive. Like Corp said, they're not bombs. In WWII, they weren't as powerful as you might think.
 
how can they be weak, you get hit wit em, you go boom, end of story
plus its funny to see people see you, shoot at you the same time you do, so you both get kills
 
I think they are fine. I play using the mg most of the time and I can tell you there is nothing that matches the flying lession it gives you even if you take the guy out. you see the smoke and you know your going to see the map in a hole new way. I also have to agree that some are better with them then others. as for the ammo issue don't just give them ammo, cover for them while they reload. nothing gets you dead faster them when your reloading.
 
I love the rocket class...primarily the allied class. Having the bazooka without the shield (like the panzer) and the carbine makes it one of my favorite classes to play...

Does anyone else seem to think that the allied bazooka reloads quicker than the panzer or it it just me? I think thats why i prefer the bazooka to the panzer any day...
 
I'm not too sure if the allied bazooka reloads quicker, the reason why i dont know is because i like useing the allied bazooka, dont know why lol, but i'vehad a few kills here and there with it :)
 
I prefer the Allied Bazooka class. The carbine is priceless fun and I can get a lot of kills with it. Thats why I think the Allied version of the weapon is the dominant class if the two were to go at it. The Carbines accuracy and distance outbeats the machine pistol.
