description: I know we've had worst unit and stuff - but what acoording to u is the worst weapon? i'm thinking stealth soldier rifle - its soo lame, i sometimes change to pistol, but i guess its better against tanks i guess. Most od the time if im stealth im on a base raiding mission and i never fire - maybe thats why its so lame. It does a decent amount of damage on a head hit tho... maybe the sydney gun...

description: Errr...this topic makes no sence. The worst unit is decided by its weapon. And yes, there ARE worse weapons, as in less powerful. Compare a railgun and a auto rifle. A railgun can kill buildings, vehicles, and infantry much faster, therefore an auto rifle is worse than a railgun.

description: I still think cheap sydney is lame- sure splash and chemical damage. But consider the bullets are bright shiny green and fly at you at the speed of a mammy. You dont exactly have to be neo to dodge it. Infact the only thing unable to dodge is probably a mammy, and considering its armor and auto rofles cheap anti armor performance everything is effective against a hummer- a sniper does 30 damage to a hummvee! Ok maybe the topic would be easier to understand if i said least cost-effective unit Then maybe sakura - i am a cheap sniper. I can only hit stationary or infantry moving directly towards me. And for bot of these targets headhits are not too difficult, so why pay the extra 500 bucks? Maybe mobius - i dont really like him either- lasr chaingun or even stealth is better. its too risky paying 1000 and then chargin into a tankfield with snipers and hoping to get your money back...... Its range sucks as well. U know the laser chaingun isnt actually as damaging to tanks as the rocket launcher officer. But it is easier to use..... hmmmmmmmm

description: quote: I hate the Grenade thrower. Never found a decent use for it! If you use this weapon in a rush against a building it will help you to point up early on in the game...... and allow you to get some much needed credits...... you can also use this weapon to take out an entire building (in correlation with the timed c4 of course)..... this unit is best used on canyon and Volcano.... Every weapon has it's purpose.... but by far the most useless weapon is the gun that is equiped with the sydney unit..... at 250 ammo it quickly uses up it's reloads and is only useful in an early rush against free infrantry..... it is good at clearing out pesky minigunners, flametroopers, and shotgunners....... on the level with NOD the chem trooper (which costs the same as a sydney) can take out an entire building with it's gun alone..... where as the sydney unit can hardly take off 4 bars of health from a building.....

description: OK, here's my thoughts, backed up by a lot of research on my behalf into damage and fire rates. Grenadiers: 1 grenadier, working alone, can 2/3 destroy a building from the OUTSIDE. Yes, that's right, outside. 48 grenade rounds is a lot of death. They're just as powerful as rockets, but he gets more. A 3 grenadier rush on Under, City, Volcano, Glacier, Walls can cripple a building in about 30-40 seconds once they start firing. Never say grenadiers suck. Cost-to-damage wise, these are the best characters ever. Also the only free unit that can blow up a building by itself from inside, I believe (besides the Engineer time/remote bug that is.). Chemwarriors: Never diss the chem warrior, he owns buildings. 1 timed c4 plus 2 or 3 (i think 3) clips = dead building. Chem rush owns on no-defense maps also. Chems do decent vs vehicles, too, and if you headshot people they eat infantry for breakfast. Shotgunners: How can you doubt a unit that can kill anyone in one headshot? I rest my case. Mobius/Mendoza: I CANNOT believe someone said Mobius sucks in this thread. Mobius is like Jesus, he can't die. Unlike Jesus, he also brings massive pain and death with him to anything, be it vehicles, infantry, or buildings. Mobius can kill Stealth Tanks/Arties/MRLS/Hummers/Buggies/Orcas/Apaches/Transports in one clip. He can kill Flamers/Meds/LTs/APCs in two. 3 or 4 headshots will kill pretty much anyone with him. He kills buildings as fast as a chemwarrior from inside. Laser Chaingunners: They do hella damage to vehicles and structures from outside, and people also. Like a slightly weaker version of Mobius. Stealth Black Hands: Their rifle actually does a little more damage per clip to vehicles and buildings than the LCG does, but they take longer to fire. It's a decent trade since they can cloak. My votes for most useless weapons would have to go to the Tiberium Auto-Rifle, with the Flamethrower in a distant second. The TAR sucks. It's slow to fire, the bullets are slow, and when you comp…

description: Nope, I'm sorry. The grenadier is death from a distance, over walls, and from above. He also does huge damage to vehicles. 3 or 4 grenadiers will own any vehicle rush. I can't say the same about 3 or 4 flamethrowers. I just brush them aside, it takes them too long to do damage. Besides, if you're only using them early game, you're limiting yourself needlessly.

description: Deathgod - I agree that a grenadier is an excellent weapon - but a flametrower is also very good. In a tunnel, a skilled grenadier would probably kill a flamer, but out in the open - the flamer slaughters grenadiers. Anti infantry - the flamer generally has the advantage. Even a n00b can use a flamer effectively , but a grenadier is a skill weapon. Grenades are also more effective against vehicles - but again its a skill weapon - many of your shots would miss a moving target (mammys and harvesters dont count), also its effective range is midrange, so you cant get too close. Grenadiers really come into their own on building attacks from the oustide - a pair of grenadiers can knock out a building from the outside early on if it is not repaired - and it gets you a lot of points. My personal preference is the grenadier, but i would never ever write off the flamethrower. I am deadlier with the grenade than even the shotgun at close range on in tunnels. But if there was a tank blockade outside my base on field for example - i could do a lot more damage with a flamer than a grenadier, partly because the stupider drivers tend to ignore the flamer.

Even a n00b can use a flamer effectively , but a grenadier is a skill weapon. I disagree that Flamethrower is effective in the open. It is MUCH EASIER to kill a flamethrower soldier in the open because the flamethrower's attack cannot do headshot damage(rarely happens) and the enemy could back off while firing at the flame soldier.

description: I found the grenade launcher has specific advantages. Let me explain. Last night on Mesa Nod had lost everything but the hand. Of course it was filled with proxy mines and enemy so entering it alone was pointless. GDI had tanks pounding it but the engies inside neutralized this. Now the grenader allowed me to lob nades through the windows damaging the hand/mct plus the engies inside - granted we didn't win but no other weapon is able to do that. the0ne

description: so you want to kill the engies inside that are repairing the hon............ well it's pretty easy when you take an mrl and shoot the screen above the mct and give splash damage to everyone standing close to the mct...... i've personally got 15 kills just by shooting that area in a 3 minute time span.....

description: I think the worst weapon is the grenade launcher. It is hard to aim at a person and doesnt do much damage to vehicles. Other than that the pistol is really bad. I read a post that said greanade launchers were best and it said that A grenade launcher is easy if they are standing still and i thought to myself, any gun is easy is they are not moving. That person is not too smart now is he.

Not only that, it does very effective damage to a vehicle for it's price; free.

description: The grenade launcher does 240+ damage to vehicles with one clip of 8 grenades. How is that not a lot of damage? One grenade does as much as one rocket from the outside of a building, except the grenadier gets 48 grenades compared to 42 rockets. He is the only free character who can take out a building from the inside every time, guaranteed (unless you're l33t with engy C4). One headshot from a grenade = death. I did this twice in a row last night while defending my C4 in a game. One of the grenades bounced off the wall and hit a guy running away from me square in the brain. You can't get that kind of quality spectacle with any other weapon. I had a game the other night on Glacier where I joined and all we had was our WF, repair facility, and AGT (no power). I took a grenadier and killed 7 stealth tanks that game, and was 2nd place overall after only playing for 5 minutes. I fail to see how grenadiers suck. I think you just don't know how to use them.

description: The pistol is a great weapon! Shh! Yeah it is! I can kill many many things with the pistol... maybe not a mammoth tank.. but i can sure do damage! Like this one time i was in a game and i was an engineer and 6 sukaras were all around me... i was like "Ha! He! Ha!" Lunging at them.. not one of them seemed scared.. so i pulled out my pistol and suddenly they all sprinted off!! I managed to get a few headshots, but i didn't kill any of them! Hehe you can bet your ass they didn't come near me again! YAH HE HA!

Keep in mind, thats not even a head shot. Officer's are amazing units.

description: the best free weapon is GRENADE LAUNCHER i've got 2nd place on the winning team in a 40 player game on volcano doing nothing but shoot the nod ref from tunnel, i died 3 times, i don't go for refill, i c4 myself, and if i'm lucky, nod will kill me so in total I used 4 GRENADE LAUNCHER and got 900 points in game which comes to 250 ladder points for doing nothing, thanks grande launcher. and the worst free weapon is flame thrower, you can't see what you're shooting with flame, and everyone will see huge flame and shoot into the flame and kill you, same goes with the c.w. the stealth guy's laser rifle is crap, i use the 9mm everytime i go on stealth nuking runs, the engineer don't jump as much when they are hit by small bullets, when you shoot lasers they jump and run sideways and trys to kill you man fcdrazen's mom

The chem warior can take out infantry pretty quickly, is good on tanks, and he can take down a building by himself . Also as vegita246 said, the flame thrower clouds peoples veiw. I am just stating my opinion.
