I've noticed that sometimes if i shoot an enemy and miss with the PK-74 rockets, that sometimes they don't explode.Usually occurs when i shoot a wall or the ground. It doesn't happen often but it just kind of pisses me off. Is this a glitch or like something else.
Rockets will only explode at 20+ metres.
You can see distance from target through the scope.

they wont explode before they fly a certain distance.

I actually didnt kno that I always thought it was a glitch because of EA and it pissed me right off when I couldnt hit the buggers from close range >.<jord wrote:

It's to keep people from going around noob tubing like in BF2.
They learnt from their mistakes, even though it does feel buggy.

that happens to me occasionally, mostly its my grenades that won't explode.
like the 40mm in real life.
a certain number of twists activates the fuse, if it only flies ten feet then hits a wall the person that fired it wont be caught in the damage radius. (the twists come from the rifling in the barrel.)

if you see an enemy standing by a wall of near a large object aim for that in zoom mode, the gun will automatically give you the distance, fire a few rounds and you will normally hit, or on most cases i will zoom in and using my middle mouse button scroll back a few meters, then let rip, normally a guaranteed kill... great for titan mode in the corridors, its not so lame as just placing a turret down, but still slightly lame none the less..
I ok thanks. Its just sometimes when i tend to randomly shoot the wall or ground the rockets wont explode.jord wrote:

use zoom on your enemy and it'll lock a distance in for the rockets, so if you miss him they'll explode anyway.
Ok so let me get this straight. Lets say the round is primed to detonate at 40 meters but I shoot it at a 20 meter target, the rocket won't explode right?
It'll detonate at 40 meters, unless said target is a wall.Kissmybumper wrote:

There is like 400 treads like this one ,,, search next time
They arm after 20 metres and will not explode before they arm...
