I believe that we should change the most useless weapon on the daily award to AM LAUNCHER detenation. Either that, or add a seperate catagory given credit to those truly skilled snipers who use this defensive tool as an offensive weapon. The low number of kills makes it easily the least used weapon in the game. I mean, it's a anti missle launcher, not a fixed sniper grenade. Any thoughts?

Not only is it fixed, it is less powerful than a regular grenade

The AM Launcher was not designed to kill people by detonation. It was designed to combat missles. Thus detonating it can't really be considered a weapon. The AM Launcher det is in the weapon stats but it's not really a "weapon". 2 cents.

i think the most useless weapon should go to the snipers autorifle. Sure it shoots fast, but the bullets do almost no damage. The only way your gonna kill someone with this is if you sneak up on em and they only got about 10 health.

I totally disagree. The autorifle is a VERY effective weapon in the hands of a skilled user, almost as effective as the nailgun. When I am a sniper, about 1/4 of my kills come from the autorifle. It's not useless at all.

i love detting the AM!! hide it around a corner, snipe em in the knee and then DETBANG! hehe..then the handy AUTORIFLE comes in handy, but i agree its only useful if youve really knocekd a big hunk of flesh off the target beforehand...charging in against a full healthed anyclass and priming a gren, you wil only have a chance against a sniper, recon, or engy
