JoeBoneless Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Remember when you had to be rank 100 to have an RPG? Now it seems EVERYONE is using pretty much nothing else since the dlc launcher came out. I really hope it's nerfed and locked, it's far too powerful.

Mourticae Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Remember when you had to be rank 100 to have an RPG? Now it seems EVERYONE is using pretty much nothing else since the dlc launcher came out. I really hope it's nerfed and locked, it's far too powerful. If people had simply expressed some self-control and avoided destroying everything on the ground with aircraft (and complete impunity), it might not have resulted in this happening. Now only the truly experienced pilots can swoop down and deal a killing blow without suffering...which is exactly how it should be. Unless you feel that bad sport points should be assigned for killing anyone with aircraft weapons? I'd love to hear your alternatives that keep air griefers restrained while allowing everyone to continue playing on the public servers as one should when playing a multiplayer game. 'Getting god' is sort of a both-way argument, so I don't want to hear that either.

Ghost XB Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 I agree, this should be level locked. It is way to powerful for $75,000. I think R* should add a low power explosives launcher enstead that is unlocked from the start. They should also add a RayGun unlocked at rank 150.

Yeah, it requires tons of skill and experience to do a loop (in a jet) and outrun the missile until it explodes 20 feet away. Helicopters on the other hand are useless now, I don't even bother calling for them.

Joebomb Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 I must admit I was surprised when it became available while I was still low leveled, I was being handed my ass right, left and centre in FR and this weapon turned things around for me. It's a pain in the ass when I'm in a Buzzard but I can't be hypocritical, I'm the first to shoot a chopper out the sky if I think it's coming for me.

JoeBoneless Posted March 25, 2015 Author Share Posted March 25, 2015 Especially since it's homing I seriously think it should be rank 130.

This weapon is literally the only defense for low levels/ people who do not want to be grief killed by jackasses in air or ground vehicles. They nerfed it with the heist update but yet you people still bitch and moan... seriously there's more threads made about this weapon than any other topic and it's usually because a low level killed a pick that was "torturing" them.

JoeBoneless Posted March 26, 2015 Author Share Posted March 26, 2015 They didn't nerf it for crap it's still overpowered. And I continually find it amazing how they serve the low rank scum vs the people who put lots of time in. You know what a better defense is? Rank up. There's rockets everywhere. The helicopters are made of tin foil.

Just my opinion but it's fine where it's at. Right, it totally got nerfed. "The Homing Launcher has been rebalanced to have increased reload times, reduced firing rate, and an increase to the resilience of large capacity planes against it." Increased reload times, reduced fire rate, and reduced their damage against high capacity planes. Those first two are completely irrelevant when you only need one shot to take down any helicopter. They did nothing to the tracking, speed, or damage of the missile. I'd hardly call that a nerf.

cjdavies Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 (edited) Nevermind level lock, you should search for this topic, it's only just recent. Before honing launcher, I had an RPG, mini gun etc all I had to was play Survival. As long as I didn't join a new session I kept it and was free to use in free roam and owned setting deathmatches. I doubt it will be level locked now.

Shadowfennekin Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 It should have at least had a level lock of 25 or something.

If something is too powerful it should be changed. You can't say "it's gta" so everything should be overpowered. The tank was completely outrageous and 100% needed a nerf. To be honest with you I don't ever remember a nerf for the heavy sniper. Care to provide a link? Love how HulioG didn't adress how the changes weren't even a nerf at all.
