Insta+RJ (aka "Unlagged Rocket Rail", I read there)? I have to try it. Do you know a download location, so I can train playing locally?

Sorry not really. I've only downloaded the mod from that server. So I'd just recommend downloading it from the server.

Long Range: Rocket Launcher or Rail Gun (Easy kill, again)
Long range rocket? You must have a really dumb enemy (bots&noobs apply though.. and oa has enough of both) and spam enough rockets to get a kill with that.

Nothing funnier than a long range rocket kill especially when it is an annoying camping

The predictive long-distance rocket shots at corridor entrances are some of the most rewarding ones when they land (mostly in 1vs1 coupled with good map control).

But it's not a very reliable long-range weapon.

I love to rocket someone into the air and finish them off with a railgun shot.
Nothing like a little style. Smiley

Quake called it a Thunderbolt, and when you kill some one in the air, "player accepts player's shaft" or in water "player accepts player's discharge"

asking when OA3 will be done won't get OA3 done.
Progress of OA3 currently occurs behind closed doors alone

I do not provide technical support either.

Oh man, those were the days, discharging while treading water in the dm3 pool. Everybody who could possibly see you would die instantly (only a fresh MH and a fresh RA could save you), even if they weren't in the water at all. Crossing the pool was the only way to get to the only RL on the map, so you were never short of innocent victims. Evil

Of course lots of people would whine and b*tch about it, but when they got the chance themselves they all went for the mega-electrocution also. Most people didn't understand you had to swim up again after getting the LG so you got as many people in your line of sight as possible though, so they screwed it up mostly. If you did it right and waited for the right moment (water camping I guess) you could score 6 or 7 kills with one discharge at least.

I'm partial to rail at almost any range, though I really enjoy lightning as well.

Nothing's as satisfying as getting a rail hit in mid launch at a target in mid launch.

hmm not for me really lol, especially in allweapons the rail irritates me a lot lately. For example on oasago2 it's just luck if you spawn on the platform so if you grab a rail, and as rail just pwns everything when other weapons are out of range it's no nice fair match.
Making a mid-air rocket is a lot nicer Smiley

You know that the whole thing with the rail on Sago’s Castle could be solved with some stairs up to the platform or just getting rid of it Also before anyone says anything I know you can RJ up there but just when I am about to 2 or 3 guys come out of no where and of course all sporting the lighting gun and boom I’m dead.
