Reagan's Star Wars, or Shooting Down Projectiles

<< < (4/8) > >>

Sprayer:
Projectiles definetly can be shot down. Hitting projectiles with projectiles from the same weapon will destroy both (i.e. a mortar shell hitting an enemy mortar shell). Happened to me occasionally. I did not happen to see projectiles from different weapons hit each other, so I can make no statement about that. (btw mines hitting eachother before arming will also destroy both, an armed mine however can not be shot down by a single unarmed one)

Indreams:
Now I'm interested to see a Hwacha Galleon fight. I wonder if opposing Hwacha fires would reduce the effectiveness of both Hwachas.

James T. Kirk:
I've been in enough novice matches to know that the rockets hitting each other is not the reason such a fight takes so long.

I've done it a couple of times.

If you have Heavy Clip and the other Galleon doesn't, you win if you keep your distance. If you get in close with Burst while the enemy still has Heavy Clip loaded, you win. If you get shots on their Hwachas before they have you in their own arcs, you win. The fires don't matter as much as a solid volley being enough to disable the guns.

At least, that's my experience. YMMV.

ShadedExalt:
I haven't seen it happen, if it does at all, but I don't think its such a good idea to implement it.  It would buff Gat and Carronade, and any high spread, high fire rate weapon.  Imagine a Junker with its armour down, and someone fires a big ball of fuck you in the form of a Heavy Flak round.  Someone sees/hears it and fires their carronade at the right time, the flak shot blows up.  Someone fires Hwacha, and as they're traveling the target opens up with a gat.  Gat shots hit the rockets and they disappear.  I DO think its a cool idea, but I don't want it.
