I don't use the RL as much. I only use it if it's the only *good* weapon I have, I have a crap connection to the server, or I feel a little shaky with my aim. Usually, I hit 'em once , or twice if possible, with a rail then finish them off with a Chain gun or Hyper blaster. Classic RA2 strat. But it works Just Remember: Close quarter fights are won by the person with more armor/health and faster reflexes Medium/Close Range fights are won by the ones who hop around alot and have hard-to-dodge weapons (Chainguns, hyperblasters, and Sometimes Rail Guns depending on the ability of the wielder) Medium/Long range fights are won by people with the best aiming/leading abilities and know thier opponent well Long range fights are won by people who are good railers pop-and-shoot (don't assume anything p3rv)/hide-and-seek/ "chase" encounters are won by people who again, know their opponents well, and know how to place delayed explosives to corner their enemy (Rocket Launchers, Grenades, Grenade Launchers) That's just the way I think. There are probably better philosophies on this stuff than what I have to offer but that's my $0.02 Vincent
