Functionality
Functionality[]
The Quad Launcher is a fully automatic launcher that shoots out a slow projectile. When this projectile comes in contact with a surface, or stays in the air long enough, it detonates, dealing high amounts of explosive damage. This damage can hurt the player who shot it, alongside enemies. Rockets deal more damage to structures than they do to players, and you cannot achieve a headshot with one. Unlike the Rocket Launcher, Quad Launcher rockets are affected by gravity. The Quad Launcher also holds four rockets before reloading, hence the weapons name.
The Quad Launcher is a Slow Moving Projectile Weapon. It has First Shot Accuracy enabled, but as it is an Explosive Weapon / Rocket Launcher, it is largely irrelevant.
There is no damage falloff on the Quad Launcher's projectiles.

This section outlines a strategy. |
| Feel free to add tips, tricks and general advice about the topic. |
- Avoid shooting a Quad Launcher near your person as it will deal the same damage to you as it does to enemy players.
- The Quad Launcher's rockets are affected by gravity, so bear that in mind when attacking a target far away.
Counters[]
- The Quad Launcher is a risky weapon within close range engagements, as an opponent wielding it cannot fire it without risking taking damage from their own rockets. Take advantage of this by keeping engagements within close range.

Trivia[]
- The Quad Launcher appears to be based on the American M202 FLASH, which in real life was never designed to fire rockets, but instead fires incendiary devices.
