Rename the Tank Killer?

[Zarel]

It appears to me that some people don't like the name of the Tank Killer.

Me, I'm relatively neutral. But if enough people want a change, I'm all for it.

[crux]

where did you read people want it changed in the first place?

[Zarel]

Several different threads over the years. Some conversations on IRC.

I vote for another name, since in real life the Javelin is an anti-tank missile, not a anti-tank rocket. Unless you are going to make it the first missile developed in Warzone, better to use a different name.

I dont see a problem with the name.It was this way for years i dont see a reason to change it,there are more important problems.

[Per]

I am more concerned about the purpose of this weapon than its name. There is really nothing that sets it apart from other weapons. Perhaps if it was a pure AT weapon, it would live more up to its name.

[Raem_Lylar]

Javelin does not fit. I would propose calling it one of:
Devastator AT Rocket, Annihilator AT Rocket, Heavy Lancer, or Twin Lancer (it has 4 tubes).

Feel free to use these names for renaming something else instead.

[Per]

Twin Lancer (it has 4 tubes).

I like this one. It fits in with the way many other weapons have twin variants.

Twin Lancer (it has 4 tubes).

I like this one. It fits in with the way many other weapons have twin variants.

But it doesn't make sense.
Lancer already has 2 rockets.

I personally like Tank Killer as it is. As far as I know it's the most powerful rocket (scourge is a missile [it homes in]) so I think it can have a name like that.

Twin Lancer (it has 4 tubes).

I like this one. It fits in with the way many other weapons have twin variants.

But it doesn't really look like a twin lancer, it has the same colour scheme, but the shape is much different, and the lancer has two 'pods' already which might make it a bit confusing.

Edit: Didn't see 13KukYNexus666's post.

Very well, we're sticking with "Tank Killer", and I'll refer anyone who suggests a change in the future to this poll.

What good was the tank killer anyway? My tanks with it on never seemed to want to fire at anything.

[Zarel]

That's what I'm going to fix right soon.

[Tenoh]

yes,confirmed.Tank killer is bugged,not all cause some still fire.
