maaan, so many zooka & pschreck haters in here!! taking the game too seriously if you cant repeatedly pick up one of them and have fun!! its just so great when someone runs out of the wheelhouse on kalt and *BAM!* , gets a rocket to the face.

and as for it not killing ppl, i rarely have problems with it...the only real times i've noticed a difference in the present dmg done to the old is when using objects(walls, roofs, doors, ground) to kill instead of direct hits.

I dont think it'll be a problem being its own class, half of you will never make it that far down the "select class" list anyways.

Gawd, these changes can't come soon enough, I can't wait to see how the new lowered view point will change a proner's game. There's one really annoying tactic I've been encountering more and more, it's people who move, prone, wait (and wait), kill, rinse, lather, repeat.

if they make it so the garand isn't random and annoying I will be happy. at least until they add mortars. then the game may become terrible. just imagine what the ville servers are going to be like when 6 out of 10 players pick mortar, set up by the first flag and randomly bomb the other team over buildings. on the other hand you may be able to counter bomb the other side or even lob a mortar around the usual congregation of first-flag proners which would be funny and satisfying. oh well.

I would use the Garand exclusively if it hit a chest the same way it hits a back. If that Kevlar Shoulder is ever fixed I think it'll be where it should be.

Mortars won't be out for this release I don't think, they are going to be added maybe in 1.2, not 1.2b (but who the hell knows, they might just skip over 1.2 like they did 1.1). Sounds stupid as hell if you ask me considering that it took three guys to carry those things around in WWII. I don't really know what they have planned, as if there should be mortars in a map like... Anzio. Seriously, that sounds retarded. Maybe the class will only be selectable in maps like Forest or Glider and the like. (maps with mortars already in them).

Pfff, whiners..the garand roxors my boxors. If I see a garand on the ground, I'll pick it up before I pick up a kar98 or any smg. Just play with it for awhile, and you'll get used to the oddness of the gun. I don't even see the problem with it anymore.

I like the garand, too. I just don't like when most of your shots are 90 damage.

the garand is nice, but it's just not consistent enough. When I play garand I'd say half of my deaths come from shooting people first around the upper chest, having the bullet register as an arm shot, and then getting kard, mged, or sniped. If they fix the hitboxes so this doesn't happen as often it will be a sweet weapon...
