No target Locater?

Ever since I heard about the target locater (The device that allows you to call in off-map artillery barrages) I longed for teh day that I could use it in Multiplayer. That day never came. So now that raises a question. Why was the target locater not uncluded in Multiplayer? I have not found a single one to this date, nor have I seen it used in action on the multiplayer field. What was wrong with it? OP? To effective? People launching EPIC bombardments of the enemy’s Head Quarters? (I always thought that would be awesome. Get 5 guys with Target locaters and target different sections of a base and watch as a dozens of shells rain down blasting everything to bits, a true bombardment). What was the issue with it?

You really can’t tell how that would be overpowered?

It would be overpowered, as well as the lag issues it would cause and possibly FPS drops on Forge World maps.

I think having one that spawns every like 8-10 minutes in heavies would be ok…But in regular MM that would be too ridiculous, everyone would be able to get exterminations then.

Still overpowered. If you can’t take out the vehicles in heavies with the mass amounts of power weapons then you need to reevaluate your strategy.

8-10 minutes would be pointless considering the timer on BTB Heavies is fifteen minutes, it would only spawn once.

I agree, I’m not saying I want it there, I’m just saying that would be the only place that it could live without it being too ridiculous.

Imagine an Action Sack Gametype, Team Target Locater Slayer… or better yet FFA. Lmao that would be insane!!

Because it’s a gun…that fires rockets…from outer space…

The rockets…have an instant kill…on Spartans…

It’s clearly MEGA overpowered. I love using it on a group of grunts in Score Attack, though.

In custom firefight if you set all weapons including ordinance to have bottomless clip, do you think the target locator would spawn with unlimited ammo?

It would be fun to do in customs. Is it available in customs?

Nope, I’ve tried this, and it doesn’t work…

It would be so overpowered. And I really wouldn’t want to see any more little kids moaning “oh its so ovrpowrd 343 remove it i hate it!!111!!1!!”.
