LAW blast wave

[Snipufin]

I was thinking of adding a blast wave to the LAW rocket, that could either:

A. Move the player with the blast

B. Damage the player or

C. Both of them

So if a LAW would go nearby over you, you would maybe fly a bit backwards and damage a bit, like in Real Life.

Doesn't that already happen?

He doesn't mean explosion radius, he means you'd get damaged from the superheated air on the rocket's wake if it went by you without exploding.

As for the suggestion, nah. Not really useful, another 'realistic' suggestion that'd have little or no effect on the game.

That's a pretty cool idea and would also open up interesting modding possibilities. It's probably too late to get into v1.4, but I support it for versions afterwards.

('Course, then the LAW would have to be minorly nerfed in yet another way due to the raw power )

maybe about -2 speed?

[Dolfo]

Love the idea, I fully support it.

lol this would be cool for teamwork maps, like having to boost a friendly up higher.

While I dont see a real reason for it it would still be cool.

[Sytrus]

Better love it, 'cause I do.

[Hiro]

Sounds interesting. So if I only just miss and it flies away over their heads they get pushed and maybe hurt a bit anyway. That's cool.
Oh, and it should do crates and stuff aswell, to make it consistant.

Of course, it shouldn't be too powerfull. Just a slight tug backwards.
For later versions I support!

Whatever the reasons, it's gonna be hilarious on some maps. Support.

Think about this: The REAL LAW isn't used anymore. The AT-4 is. And the AT-4 CAN'T be fired from a building, because the blast wave bounces off the walls and makes you implode. Wait, that's backblast...

The missile thing...Hmm...

I'd like it if the player moved slightly, and if their "necklace" thing (dogtags or chain) moved like it was being moved by wind.
I'd also like a *whoosh* noise when the LAW goes near you. Or a scream. Either one fits.

Support.
