It's a good idea.
Should. Not will. And it's actually a terrible idea. Fades and Onos are combatted by TEAMWORK. Not one-shot instakill weapons.

Yea, but I read it differently because I read the whole post.
You took it out of context:
If you read the whole post it reads:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You guys know most of whats going to be in 1.1, but did you guys know this:
The next version of NS should include a weapon like the rocket launcher from HL. It will have a slow 1 shot reload. It will have a small explosion, but the most important thing is that with a direct hit it will almost kill a fade! Rocket launchers are researched seperately from other weapon techs from the ammo station. Fades won't be the end game anymore.
Imagine someone with a rocket launcher and jetpack!

That's why I wondered if this was true.
Guided Rockets Laucher that kills fades in one hit....also killing everthing else in one hit, but onos.
Cool
Reminds me of 1.04a grenade launchers... Ub3R!!!
Yea, you're right. I was just wondering. To me it sounds like a good idea.
Your suggestion is 1 shot reload no blast radius but almost insta kill to fade which in reality IS an insta kill to a fade as you would switch to pistol and finish it off in under 2 seconds. Now if that 1 shot is homing/guided then its far to powerful becuase its bascily a free kill for no skill and one marine could take out every enemy fade. If it wasnt guided then it would be pretty useless as a direct hit with a slow trajectory weapon like the rocket launcher would be very difficult to do making the weapon ineffective and unpractical.
Personally Id like to see either a flame thrower *wink* or a rail gun included for marines if they ever did get a new weapon :/
in 1.2 there will come a bazooka thingie that can shoot it out with wings so you can controll it... through the hole level... i heard that it will be invincible so that no alien can take it out on it's way to the hive <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
there will also be a new sound device that have a frequency that only aliens can hear and when you use it they will explode... this works within 2000m <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
in v 2.0 there will also be a device that works so you can travel where you want without any phase gate <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
marines will also get a cloaking device and build in night vision google and heat sencor into their helmets... and that's in the start of the game.
you vill also be able to create discoballs and disco lights to confuse the aliens.. it makes them blind <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
in 2.2 there will come a Super Flamethrower that can shoot throu walls and you can upgrade it so you can see throu the walls with it <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
the knife will be replaced with a katarna and a chainsaw that youself decide what you want.. it will be a one hit kill on the aliens.
imagine the katarna with the cloaking device that with the super upgrade make's you invicible even when you walk.. you get vicible first when you use your weapon.. and then with the super nike air max flex that does so that the aliens cant hear you.
in v. 3.0 you will get a built in mp3 player in your helmet + a upgrade gives you the ability to watch movies in your googles wihout any cost <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
that's includes porno movies <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
in v.4.0 there will be some more reality built in the game so you have to go to the toilet.. you also have to eat from time too time otherwise you will first get slow, then you will aim worse and then you will die permanent till next game.
you will also get baloons and rockets to celibrate your victory.... in v.4.1. you will also get party food and alcohol drinks that make's you see strange thing's... even when the next game starts...
in v. 5.0. you the comm will be able to build fotball/baseball/basketball fields and icehocky rinks for you to have some fun... and while you have that fun as a marine there will be Super cyborgs available that will take out the aliens for you... and i can tell you that with the very cheap upgrade they are worse then terminator... they can even fly and go throu walls.
in v.5.1. the comm will be able to build the computer room that make's it available for the marine to controll the super cyborgs.
there will also be a new upgrade available for the super cyborg that does so it can go through walls.. isn't that great <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
