I am talking bout the actual lock on rocket launcher in Planetside 2, from hundreds of hours of actual PS2 game play experience. In my experience it is light years better than the default weapon, simply because the rockets are so slow that even at very close range, a tank can move 1 foot after you pulled the trigger and you can miss. With the lock on, you
can't miss at close range.
So many times I have missed with the dumb-fire from less than 10 feet, simply because the guy in the tank wanted to start driving, not because he knew I was there. Again, with the lock on, that miss becomes
impossible.
Add to this the clear advantage the lock on has at long range, in that tanks can't simply move 1 foot away and avoid the hit, you can't call it anything but an upgrade.
You know, I don't really care much about all of this, but I would like people to be honest about what is happening. It's just not right to say one thing and do another - say it and do it and be proud of it.
