Increase heavy missile speed - griffin1987 - 2013-08-25

I'm suggesting to increase the speed at which the missile of the heavy tank travels. Reason behind this is that when I play heavy I more often than not "steal" a kill without wanting to, just because I shoot my missile to help someone by stunning an enemy, but it's so slow that I get the kill then.

Only "downside" I could think of regarding this would be that it'd become a bit harder porting away from it, but it seems to me that demon tank stun is already faster, and even heli missile looks faster to me (but I could be wrong there).

What do you think?

Just shoot earlier if you are so concerened with accidentally stealing a kill?


Faster missile would be a heavy buff though, which I don't think is a good idea. At least not warranted by the accidental steal reasoning. (it would also make intentional steals easier btw)

...same with Demon Tank, Frosty Stun. All Long Range stuns are rather slow and can be negated by items or skills very easy. But to be honest i dont share griffins opinion with a speed increasement. and if some stupids think you are stealing kills with it... its a kill for the team and all in all its better becouse of kill + assist. and if some do that on purpose its not gentleman like, but its not a drama and helps the team - as dumb as it sounds.

i have a bigger problem with skills but i guess i will start a new thread for it...

I would rather like to see with increased speed:
- Freezing missile (Architect),
- Heat-seekeing missile (Distributor),
- Frost missile (Frosti).
- Air mines [can only follow and damage tanks up to ~450 speed (Storm)].

I don't see why heavy missile speed should be increased for the reasons you stated.
