why is it that to kill a foot soldier with anti tank u have to fire it thru his eyeball????

It was never like that on bf vietnam you had a huge blast radius and quite right so as these things take out tanks..

Today I was stood 10 yards from a soldier aimed it at his feet and it didnt even make a scratch.

Now what is that all about?

Yes. I think that they should have a larger blast radius too. Especailly against infantry. However, the 1 major thing that annoys me is how many times you have to hit a regular hum-v or a MEC van with the main gun of a tank to destroy it. There have been times I have hit them dead on 2 times without destroying them, and yet an anti-tankweapon only takes 1 to destroy them. Whats up with that?!

I'm really tired of people complaining about everything being "Whored". If everything is being"Whored" then nothing is. Everybody has their favorite weapons/vehicles, and unless there is a single weapon or vehicle that is the most popular and infinitley better than the others, there is no such thing as "Whoring"!

Its already the best sniper rifle in the game.

Surely the game is suppose to have some form of real world weapon equivelant realism, regardsless of its "whoring" qualities

Except for the actual sniper rifles

Not really. The game is already far from realistic in dozens of ways, it has to be balanced for gameplay.

Actually the rocket is designed for penetration as opposed to explosion area.

Over zealous use of the AT rocket is just like "noob tubing": one hit kill, difficult to run away from, ends a duel without a fight. If you want to prevent being "noob rocketed", don't go prone or stay still.

that happens when they are moving fast. we know that DICE isnt very good at these types of things. but if they are sitting still then you will kill them in one hit with a tank.

Think about the relative expense of a rocket launcher + rockets compared to a normal assault rifle + bullets.

In the game there is no costs involved, so they need to find other ways to encourage people to have a realistic balance of kits. Thus the small blast radius of the rockets.

This is why Counterstrike has money stuff.

It's a great sniper gun but really with that reload time and the lack of ammo the AT weapons keep themselfs from being practical. Then major reason I play AT is because nothing else has anti vehicle weapons that are worth a damn.
