What has DICE done to the RPG?

I was playing kharg island on conquest and two idiots on the opposing team decided to climb into the yellow dumpster inside the warehouse at the docks. I was in the two rooms side by side overlooking the warehouse when I noticed these two dipshits playing patty cake in the trash so i shot a RPG (rocket propelled GRENADE) into the tiny maybe 4 foot by 6 foot dumpster.... to get ZERO kills. Two people in a tiny confined area where all the shrapnel would be forced to go into them.... but i get no kills? This is a joke, If this happened in real life i would see limbs flying out of the trash... It's a fucking grenade. I'm not shooting rocket propelled medkits. What the fuck.

Remember everyone in BC2 that had a platinum star on the Carl-Gustav?



Thank them.

i am going to say the you probably missed with your shot. for you to actually get a shot "inside" one of those dumpsters you would have to be on top of a building to get a rpg in there. so your rpg probably hit something else. not all that unusual really. the rpg still kills pretty nicely, you just have to hit close enough to the guys.

Apparently DICE thinks explosive ammunition should have next to none splash damage...unless its fired from a shotgun.

People complained about it based on Metro rocketspam, and because of that it now sucks on all the other maps.

This happens to me all the time. It really sucks knowing that you should have got the kill...

I was shooting down from one floor up about 25 feet away. I know I didn't miss. I even showed my buddy I play with all the time the black spot where my RPG nailed.... inside the center of the trash can. They just made the RPG weak as fuck after the patch. People used to be able to fire a rocket about 6 feet away from the player and get kills... Now you need to hit the player directly or only do about 70% damage. Shrapnel seems non existant in BF3.

2 things.

Flak armor got majorly buffed.

RPG's splash damage has been nerfed to make it more vehicle focused.

Flak protects the chest from shrapnel. It doesn't hold your limbs in place when they should be missing.

It was nerfed because of the faggots that used it as a primary all the time, it was needed.

I know how a flak vest works and i also know this is a video game. It would make the perk useless, no point in using it if your gonna be missing limbs anyway

you missed and impacted on the side.... i have no problem shooting people in skips that decide to hide there
sounds like you hit the side and got killed before you could actually verify the kill

Also a grenade would of been far easier to use since it has a throwing arc.

part of the battle is knowing your kit.

I thought the RPGs in BF3 were fixed to work mainly on vehicles vs infantry.

The splash was pathetic before and now its worse. Good thing the nerf doesn't effect MY gameplay; I kill vehicles or direct impact infantry only.
