rl cluster vs spread

Post by Analog » Tue Sep 02, 2008 5:09 pm

Folks,

Whenever I see regs needing to pick between cluster and spread I always seem them picking spread - Why?

It seems that with 2 clusters you have better aim and more ammo on target (if you try to aim at all).

I've tried spread over cluster myself and it still seems like cluster is better but the regs are so much better then I, there must be something I'm missing.

Using spread you can just spray the rockets over your enemies :P

Anyways dont worry about what the "regs" use. Just pick the weapon that works better for you.

Spread has a wider range and splash damage. Cluster with superforce puts more lead on a single target.

Weapon build and the actual monster play a factor in how much damage cluster vs spread will do.

The map you're playing too definitely plays a factor as well, I think. If it's something like 007Complex, then cluster is your better bet IMHO

I normally use Cluster over Spread. Mainly because I like getting a decent distance away before engaging if I have an RL.
