So...Advantages, disadvantages..?
type: item
description: Okay, I've been wondering this for awhile..... Its sort of two questions, but equally related. 1: Is the chem sprayer just a more highly powered version of the flame thrower, or are the two better for different things? 2: Is there a differince between 'Burn' and 'Tiberium' damage. As in, the effect AFTER you've been hit by one of them, and it continues to hurt you. Is tiberium more? Or do they both have advantages? Thanks.

description: As far as I know: 1: Yes, the chem sprayer is just a flamethrower with beefed damage and does tiberium DoT instead of fire doT. 2: The difference is that they are two different damage types, and theortically if you got hit by a chem sprayer and a flamethrower at the same time, or stepped in a tiberium field and got shot by a laser rifle, you would take twice as much Damage over Time.

description: Chem. lasts incredibly longer, it's border-line ridiculous how long on shot from a chem warrior can last. I would think since a chem does more damage to a building than a flamethrower it does more damage in general.

Yes, Chemsprayers cause more damage when compared to Flamethrowers. The Chemsprayer's "poison" burns right through light vehicles. Also, it can penetrate through infantry (like sniper rifle) making them deadly in tunnels. They are great on buildings even if attacking from outside. Just aim for the head of your enemy. And yes, they cause damage even after you stopped spraying. Other Tiberium weapons like the TAR and TFG cause incredible amounts of damage to infantry even after you stop firing since the Tiberium is physically lodged in their bodies for a while. Aim for their head for really quick kills.

description: Exception of c4, the chem sprayer does the most damage to mcts in one second. Salvos, volts, and even rail guns don't kill a building as quickly. 400 rounds of tiberium and a timed c4 will kill a building. Plus they can walk through tiberium and in single-player they cause visceroids if you don't completely kill the enemy before about 5 seconds after being infected. Chem-sprayer>Flame-thrower

description: Surth wrote on Sun, 06 January 2008 06:27 tbh both are useless, Chemsprayer aswell as Flamethrower. Uhhhh...No they aren't. Besides a volt rifle, there isn't a single weapon I'd rather have for close-quarters than the chem sprayer. It does quite a lot of damage to humans, and has a long burn effect. Also, its great for early-sieges in places such as, Walls, or Complex. Also, have we forgotten about Tib-Hiding? For example, get a chem warrior and go into the little cave in Mesa and wait for all the MRL's to come out. Jump out from behind, and they won't have enough time or HP to get at you before you destroy them completely. So, the chem sprayer is NOT even close to useless.

The rockets on the Rocket Soldier, while yes it IS cheaper, are also slower, not only in firing speed but in air-flight-time. Whats the advantage of this? It makes it FAR easier to lead the target on far away maps. With the faster rockets, you have to judge it far more precisely. With slower rockets, it makes it quite a bit easier. Trust me, I think of this stuff.

description: Bullshit. Slower rockets are easier to dodge, therefore making your "leading" useless. Rockets are near useless at a large distance to any target who gives a shit that it's getting hit. Also, even if you do manage to hit with the rocket officer rockets, it will hardly matter, since they deal negligable damage. Anything the rocket officer does, an LCG or Gunner will do better. Hell, I'd rather have a Tib Syndey than a rocket officer. Admit it. Just admit you're wrong, and that the rocket officer is useless. It's okay.

I'd admit I was wrong if I was actually...You know....Wrong. Its a LOT easier to aim a slow rocket than a fast rocket, because it will usually hit the ground before the target even gets there. I didn't say the use was vast, but every single weapon has at least one unique purpose, and I find myself using this one quite a lot actually. Let me give you a scenario: Your playing 'Field'. You are GDI. You are facing the side where the little house is. In the back, theres a buggy that has just been severely damaged, and it's driver is already hurt. It killed the person hurting it, however. If you use a fast rocket, okay, you MAY hit it, but with a slow rocket? You point a good ways in front of it, killing it. And lets say its on tiberium? That'll kill the person too. Yes, the gunner IS better, but its not better in all situations. Sorry, but you just are NOT correct on this. Like I said, everything has a purpose, no matter how small. But despite that, these things DO happen, and this DOES work.

description: MWright967 wrote on Mon, 07 January 2008 22:42 (Bullshit spawned from Satan's anus) Which is assuming that people use buggys on field, or use slow rockets over long distances, or that buggies regularly steer themselves into rockets, or that the above couldn't be accomplished to a greater effect by aiming closer to the brain-dead buggy with a gunner-rocket instead. In any case, TIME FOR LOGICS! 1) In Renegade, rockets fly straight. There is no such thing as innaccuarcy. You hit what you aim for. 2) Normally, when people see rockets flying at them, they will attempt to dodge said rockets. 3) Fast rockets give less time to react than slow rockets, because fast rockets are faster. 4) Less dodging time = harder to dodge 5) Harder to dodge = better for the attacker 6) ??? 7) Profit. Given the above, Whatever bullshit you said was just that, bullshit. Let's not even get into the more damage, faster rate-of-fire, and faster reload time of Gunner rockets over regular rockets.

I don't know what kind of a Renegade player you are, but when I fire a Rocket at a vehicle, 75% of the time they don't bother to move, or can't move. Let me ask you something: Why would they put in a completely useless version for a team that already has an upgraded version? Because its cheaper? Somewhat. But thats not the main reason. Because its SLOWER. Just think about it like simple mathematics: Car A is going at 10MPH on a straight line heading west. Rocket B is going at 15MPH on a straight line heading north. Both start at an equal distance apart. Rocket B will fly past Car A before Car A can contact with Rocket B. Now, Rocket C is going at 10MPH, or even lets say, 9MPH. Rocket C will hit Car A at exactly the same time, or a TINY bit afterward, still damaging the vehicle. You can say WHATEVER you want, you just aren't right. I don't know if you've ever tried using a gunner on stanks in Field, but its pretty retarded and or hard to make contact with one with something that goes so fast and small. I PURPOSELY use a Rocket Soldier in those cases. In the serious fray of the fight people pay attention to vehicles, not dinky little gunners or rocket soldiers firing away on the side lines. Its very rarily people try to kill that kind of stuff, and usually only bother to attack GUNNERS. Dodging stuff like this is only an issue for infantry. Plus, have we even forgotten the psychological effect? When you see a gunner, what do you think in the back of your mind? ''Wellp, theres a gunner whos going to be attacking my vehicle.

These people still struggle with basic concepts like Gunner > Rocket Officer, or that the stealth tank isn't really completely stealth. That's okay.

Also, you don't need to be a pro to have half a brain. I'm certainly not "pro", but I'm able enough. Lastly, the skill level varies quite a bit from server to server. In an earlier post you meantioned playing on TSU. That would account for your low count of "good" players.

However, I'm trying to prove here, that every weapon DOES have a purpose. And I (And Spoony, and everyone else who has contributed to this thread minus you) are telling you this is falsehood. The rocket officer lacks a purpose. There is no concieveable situation where he would be the "best" choice. Come to think of it, the flamethower is also useless. It's outstipped by the chem sprayer in every way that the rocket officer is outstripped by gunner. Argueably, the auto rifle is useless also. The LCG has about the same range, only with more damage to vechs, burn damage against infantry, and a higher RoF. Edit: How could I forget? The standard repair gun is made obsolete by the Hotwire/Technician version, which repairs twice as fast and at a longer range.

The chem sprayer is quite possibly THE best close-quarters combat weapon available, and does more damage all around than any other weapon. but is let down by its shitty range, its unwieldiness against infantry, and the fact that while it does decent damage against a vehicle that's dense enough to let you attack it, there's a tiny little flaw there.

That's the difference between CW and Public servers. There is an objective in CW (to win using the most effective strategy) working fast and cohesively. But in public servers, players get distracted with characters and vehicles that are not necessarily effective and merely feed the player's own indulgement (fun) with the game. Not that it is wrong to do that but winning is not assured and defeat may come at anytime. This is the reason Public games are not the place to be if you are looking for a challenge. This is also the reason why it is quite pointless to tell a Public player to ignore enemy snipers. For example, why does the average Public player buy Ramjets all the time? To get most kills. Does not benefit the team at all but it feeds the player's own indulgement in the game. However, there are a few exceptions to this as there are Public players that buy such weapons just to help the team in certain situations. Why does a CW player buy a Ramjet? To benefit the team if such a weapon fits effectively into the overall strategy of the map. Only a few Public players understand this.

They're also hard to aim and pretty much suck. I'm not worried

I'm not worried I'm sorry, but a mobius or mendoza is a pretty poor choice of weapon against an orca or apache... any decent flier will gun you down with the machinegun in a heartbeat, and if your strategy revolves around hiding from him, let me point out the flaw: you won't be able to attack him either if you do that take my advice and get a ramjet instead... something which actually is effective against an orca, even if piloted by someone who actually knows what they're doing with it

They're also hard to aim and pretty much suck. I'm not worried If I was attacking with Orca, and I see you with a Volt Auto Rifle, here's what I would do, in this order: 1) Laugh 2) FLY AWAY. The while they are pretty powerful, the range on them is downright lol-worthty. Once I'm out of range, I will... 3) Either gun you down from out of range (Since orcas outrange Volt Auto Rifles, unless I'm mistaken) OR fly away and proceed to take potshots at your harvester or the structure of my choice, since your Volt Auto Rifle is powerless to stop me and you can't hope to match the speed of an Orca. Next time, use a ramjet rifle, which kills orcas/apaches in a mere 5 shots (1 clip + 1 shot). Not only will you destroy the orca in less time than it would take with a Volt Auto Rifle, but you'd be able to hit it so long as you maintain line-of-sight, as the ramjet has near-unlimited range. Also, note that jumping does not safeguard against being run over.
