Halo 4's SPNKR

I remember reading something about the Rocket Launcher’s rockets having a faster travel speed. Can someone confirm this or am I crazy?

Anyway, how do you feel about it this change?

mhm, faster rocket making long range shots more viable? i wouldn’t mind.

Yes I heard this as well, the rockets travel faster to make up with the fast pace of the game.

I was surprised by that info because they looked like they were moving slower.

Can anyone remember what it was that had this info? I cant remember if it was from E3 coverage or what…

I don’t really mind either way.

im excited even though i suck with rockets

Bulletin 8/8/12

Rockets do travel faster, but the speed at which you switch to your second rocket is slowed down that way it isn’t OP.

Faster rockets? good…goooooood… show them nubs my fast ball in gravehammer baseball! >:D

Yes, 343 Industries confirmed this in a Halo Bulletin. It’s also rather obvious from watching some gameplay videos. It’s a good change, in my opinion.

Faster rockets are definitely a plus, no longer will they be only suited to close-mid range.

Good, The survival rate of my teammates should be higher now.

If you look at the videos, you cant tell that this is true. Rockets seem to travel noticeably faster than before.

I’m personally fine with this change. I think they fired too slow in previous games, reducing their range to only about 50 feet if you’re aiming for a single moving target. This will also increase effectiveness in taking out Banshees (coupled with their slower Halo 3-esque rolls). In Reach the launcher was basically useless against Banshees.

Meh, a rocket’s a rocket.

Nice Title OP.
