Hmm, still a lil cautious about this...

and carry some extra frag/flak rounds

Cuz in Planetside they are quite different.

What I understood was that boxes of frag grenades would work as flak ammo in the rocklet rifle... which isn't at all realistic, but i can understand why they might choose to do that

Maybe they just look like frag boxes :D

Im pretty excited to hear this. Too bad everyone and their momma are gonna cert SA now. So where are the reaver spammers to whine about this?

My Reaver has rockets? Never noticed, and now that they can hurt armor more, they might be worth carrying.

hey thats my B-day! lol

I have decided that I wish the focklette flak was a different ammo type. I always carry a thumper rocklette combo on me so that I can pretty much defent against most opponents. if i see a person, i plasma spam them, if its a max I recklette them, and a tank...well I just pull out thumper, hit x, and jammer them pretty quickly so i can escape( and shoot rocklettes at them).

The problem is the order that the ammo changes in in. It goes from plasma----->explosives---> jammers. If I have a box or two of explosive rounds for the rocklette rifle in my backpack I have to cycle through those in the thumper before i can get my jammers loaded. its pretty annoying and takes what feels like forever in battle and causes me to die a lot. I wish I could either have those as a different type of ammo or can select which type I load in without going through that cycle(like x would be forward change ammo and ctrl-x would be change ammo backwards). If you use SA like I do you prolly have had that same issue.

I used SA almost 90% of the 2 years that I have played so it really is an issue to me.

SO if the secondary fire of the rocklet gun fires the entire clip, does that mean it does the same for the flack? :chomp: :sniper: :scared:

i'll get special assault now...but I still love the lancer and that has always killed a lot of aircraft for me in the past
