Description:
The Rocket Launcher have been sucessfully popular and good weapon for people who doesn't have ammo cells, but because it's dmg took along time to kill monsters like Spider Mastermind and Cyberdemon, UAC decided to make a prototype project that is slower but 2x stronger than Rokcet Launcher, shoots plasma rockets and uses 15 cell power. The weapon is the Plasma Rocket Launcher, It's 2x stronger than Rocket Launcher. That could fix the problems when cells run out fast and when you need to destroy Cyberdemon as fast as you could.

Mega Thanks to MagicWazard for this Upgrade of the sprites and the wad itself... i really apperciate it!, although as i learned about offsets which is really useful and compact way to animate, i modified it alittle bit.

They already have the plasma rifle, why would they need an inferior weapon?NourPrince wrote: but because it's dmg took along time to kill monsters like Spider Mastermind and Cyberdemon, UAC decided to make a prototype project that is slower but 2x stronger than Rokcet Launcher, shoots plasma rockets and uses 15 cell power. this weapon is called Plasma Rocketer
It took me about 300 cell ammo to kill a cyberdemon while it'd only take about 200 (give or take) to kill that monster with the plasma rifle. So this weapon is not easy on one's supply of energy cells.That could fix the problems when cells run out fast and when you need to destroy Cyberdemon as fast as you could.
It tries to be a better weapon than the rocket launcher, but on the expense of the plasma rifle and its ammo.

You know that It's 2x stronger than Rocket Launcher, but its also a weapon that needs more slots (Like doubling the cells for example), and also due to the infusion of Rocket Launcher and Plasma Rifle, its rockets cost 15 Cell Power. and why would you waste them all? They're good for defeating cyberdemon as fast when you finish em with rocket launcher.
Plasma Rocketer is like BFG9000, where it also needs the double slot in order to fire it more times. while BFG9000 takes 40 cells.
Other than that, It's entirely useful for some tough battle. and after the cells ran out, finish'em with strongest weapon ever possible.

I also think the sprites need a bit more work...I get the story behind the weapon, but I don't think that simply recoloring the plasma gun is really convincing (plus the pickup sprite conflicts with the actual plasma gun's pickup sprite, which I'm not sure is intentional). Maybe you could combine it together with parts of the rocket launcher, or maybe even a launcher from RoTT or something like that.
I think it also needs a bigger projectile explosion sprite than the one it's currently using--right now the sprite is kind of small compared to the size of the explosion it makes.

I will agree for the particle explosion, Ammo Cost, the explosion damage and the sprites.. But the problem is that the sprites are recolored because it was meant to be my first noobish weapon (When the idea came I was noob in decorate). But I will try to fix the problem there.
