Machine Guns.

They do not kill instantly, whereas Rocket Launchers do. They made up for that by having the ability to kill more people total if you could survive and not get killed by rockets.

I pick up the heavy ammo, and I now get enough Machine Gun ammo to kill 4 people. Unacceptable. Now the advantage to HMGs is gone. No reason to not use rockets.

Think for two seconds. If you can survive long enough to dominate with an HMG you deserve it. If the advantage is too great, then either make rockets a teeny bit better, or else do what everybody here agrees is a useful idea and allow heavy ammo drops off player's bodies if you kill them with a weaker weapon.

Come on guys. Way to make the game less interesting. Now it'll be rockets only.


I thought the advantage was Hitscan

"Number of potential kills" is not even something I consider when choosing between Rockets or HMG. I'm thinking about map layout, sight lines, gametype, and what will work best considering all those factors.
