I like the fuel rod cannon because it is obviously more powerful and whats more it does hold more ammo.

Wasnt this a halo 1 forum? In halo 1 the rocket launcher had no lock on, 10 total rockets and did alot of damage. The fuel rod gun didnt have rounds, just energy and would shoot 4-5 rounds before overheating. If i had my choice i would choose the fuel rod gun because it is just so fun to use, and it feels more natural to arch the thing and i hit targets way better with the mortar fire.


I'm guessing one of the mods moved this thread likely from either The Library or from one of the H2 forums. Which explains the discrepancies between the versions of the RL and FRG. But for the rest of you, the H2 RL has tracking, while the H1/HPC versions don't. H2 has a FRG, but it can only fire 4 shots at a time before requiring a manual reload, while H1's FRG had a cooldown time and was pretty bulky in comparison.

Anyways, give me the Halo1 Rocket Launcher anyday. Nothing gives you more bragging rights than blowing up a tank from halfway across the map. Or forcing a flag-runner in a hog to eat rocket by leading your shot perfectly.

It locks on to targets and is easier to aim.

personally, I like the FRG more (in halo PC). Nothing works better for trapping some poor newb in his base as you and a teammate power-spam the area with fuel rod gun blasts. Heh heh.... poor newbs.

The FRG is also great for surpressing the bases in Blood Gultch. It's also good at taking out large groups of people too. I'm talking about the Halo PC version FRG, which is far better than the kinda lame Halo 2 one.

cant you make a new topic? its offtopic but can be avoided...

personally i like rl

the frg (im talking about halo pc here) isnt nearly as powerful. usually takes 2-3 to kill with a frg

with a rl... if you aim well its 1 hit ko

personally i like the fuel rod because it holds 25 shots and the rocket launcher only has 6
so wouls u rather have six shots or 25 fuelrod leavs rocks in the dust its so powerful it cant be used in matchmaking

i honestly cant decide.

He's got a point, very true. The fuel Rod has so much ammo that I used it vs grunts in the campaign! I love to save ammo. LOL But the sheer fact the you can lock on makes the rocket launcher win.
