"I can accept failure, everyone fails at something, but I can't accept not trying." - M. Jordan

Well I think it would be extremly hard to stick a plasma grenade to a rocket zooming by, and I think it would be cool if someone did it and stopped it from blowing a Warthog with a flag from getting away.

but....A auto tracking sniper could work from a side angle view. It would be easy to blow up from a view where its coming from far away dead at you. A side angle would be something of a great feat through auto tracking to knock a rocket out of the air. What do you think? its not the best of ideas

Note: the sniper in Halo already kinda auto tracked randomly.

If you know how to use them most weapons do autotrack for a split second or so.

I don't know it all sounds too complicated to me so uhmm I wouldn't necessarily like the auto tracking sniper thing. It wouldn't be that well balanced.

Well just a thought. I guess when I come up with a idea like that, its time for bed. I gotta get some sleep, and order my apple studio display tommarow. Maybe if I am lucky. Good Night*.

I agree, also if they're running perpendicular to you <ie across infront of you for those of less intellect> then if the crosshair is read, you still miss! it requires skill to judge the bullets speed <even tho, its description says its pretty much instantaneuous and the trail is the air igniting>

omg nooooo the rocket launcher is enough of the target tracking -blam!- i think thats good for the spinker but not for snipeing. im a sniper i dont need a computer to aim for me and if your that bad then whats the point of hiding behind of a shield that aims for you. people should be able to do the fighting it wouldent be a fps then... thats my 2 cents
