Quoted from Monkeh

The argument I gave is if it’s preferred, why is it preferred? I doubt it’s preferred purely because rockets appear to fly from the middle of the screen, it must make them more comfortable somehow, and having a massive cream cock protruding from their chests CANT be the reason, it simply has to give some form of advantage or why use it?

From this point onward, the discussion has lost its point. And, as much as I’d love you to get the clue about why it did, I don’t expect you to do so, so let me explain. After Wikipedia,

‘In psychology, preferences could be conceived of as an individual’s attitude towards a set of objects, typically reflected in an explicit decision-making process […]. Alternatively, one could interpret the term “preference” to mean evaluative judgment in the sense of liking or disliking an object […], which is the most typical definition employed in psychology.’

You prefer something, because you like the way it feels, not just because it provides you with an advantage. And it’s plainly obvious that you will be better with weapons you prefer rather than those not preferred. I mean, come on Monkeh, what kind of a question is that?

This guy suggests you’re wrong btw:

Advantage and lowering of skill ceiling right there….to some extent.

BIG NEWS: Projectiles spawning from the side raise the skill ceiling.

seriously, how does making shooting through openings a little easier, change the balance of the class and lower the skill ceiling, thats just stupid.

Also please dont make any real life comparisions or argue that the projectile spawn should refelct the world model.

My main class is demoman , but i really wouldn’t mind about original and pyros flaregun.

Centre Viewmodel :
– Have to turn around more to get same boost out of rocket jump (compensating more than with either Left or Right)
– Can’t edge corners without exposing yourself
+ Can shoot through gaps

+can easily jump straight up
