Soldier Update

SCREAMIN EAGLES!

So I know its fake but I like the achievement ideas. I think to replace the rocket launcher they could have a machine gun like a .30 or .50. Makes you much slower but does tons of damage maybe make it mountable in one place make it more accurate but you can't move. The vest is un-needed and the rifle is alright.

Thoughts? Ideas?

those weapon unlocks are beyond terrible, the starspangled spade is the only one that seems to be even remotely close to being plausible.. The achievements were for the most part realistic

What Nket said... The typos don't help the cause either. And seriously? People still want a ninja? Ninjas don't fit at all.

If they ever add a class (Team Fortress 2... 2!) they'd have to add three (1 defense, 1 offense, 1 support).

Soldier needs a RL that allows you to run faster and jump higher but does less damage to enemies.

Soldier with a machine gun? lolno.

Ooook just go with a tank then... lol

[You suck and have no life 203]

I really cant think of a substitute for the rocket launcher.

[Spartan_0214 18]

I really can't think.

[I'd tell you but... 37]

fix0r3d.

I lol'd a little.

Anyway, the only good idea is the vest, all that other shit is useless..

[You suck and have no life 203]

Yep, I bought my chemical engineering degree off Ebay.

[Spartan_0214 18]

No. You just went to WU. Same thing.

Perhaps this is the point where I should mention that one of my roommates made it through about 3 years of college doing absolutely nothing but play WoW? His parents pulled him out this past semester because they didn't haven enough money. He was training to be a chemical engineer.

... that really tells me something about the field.

I got my degree playing 4 years of Starcraft and TFC. And? lol

I guess they must really like people who play WoW in their degrees.

He never went to a single class other than for midterms, exams, and finals. Never studied. Did papers the day of.

Got the starting salaries for a mathematician?

How is that even possible? What school is this?

[You suck and have no life 203]

All I can say is; single examples, and anecdotal experiences doesn't prove a point. There are garbage men who are extremely smart, and phDs who can be stupid. That doesn't mean I should be a garbage man if I want to increase my chances of success. Chris Langan, who is the smartest man in the world 195 IQ, is a bouncer (interesting life history).

But, its important to note that on average, engineering is sure a lot harder than psychology or liberal arts.

Except the water achievement says only the enemy needs to be under water. We all know Valve is too bone headed to do something like that, plus only 25 kills?

On a side note, the whole sabotage thing could be interesting, although ubers and spies could make it very easy to blow up a target.

If I told you that, I'd have to track you down and kill you.

Also, how is your post relevant to the conversation Suckylife? We're talking about slacking off, and suddenly you move on to how engineering is better than liberal arts and psychology. I have no idea where that came from.

I'm thinking maybe as a replacement for the secondary weapon, maybe the ole concussion grenades from TFC. Also how about a double barrel rocket launcher, it would have no crits and a lower base damage for balance.

[Melissia 7]

Viable substitute for the rocket launcher:

Single-shot rocket launcher that travels faster and has an increased splash radius, but does not crit normally.

[Spartan_0214 18]

Sold.

Sounds like an RPG to me. I would go for one of those.

[FunkyFresh 68]

Still tryin' to wrap my brain over what they might actually give..I hope the first one unlock is like what Mel explained.

So what you're saying is the soldier would have a machine gun and move slower while he uses it. How about while we're at it, make it so he has more hit points since he is a bit more vulnerable. And maybe as another unlock he can have a food item that he can eat to regenerate hit points.

Hmmm... I can't think of any other class that currently does this, so .. I'm on board with your idea!

You wouldn't kill shit with this gun. What a stupid idea. Single shot rocket? Travels faster and increase splash radius? Big whop dee doo. So you shoot a rocket and it splashes (lets exaggerate) 20 people. Then what? You kill none since you cant crit and you are reloading.

You ever play Halo? This describes Halo's RL perfectly. The only difference is that Halo's rocket can fire twice before reloading.
