Anyone else hoping that the soldier gets something other than a rocket launcher?

Soldier needs an assault rifle. I mean, why not? The sniper got a bow, completely different weapon from the sniper. Why does it have to be a rocket launcher?
I do wonder why they called him Soldier though. Something like Rocketman would have made more sense.
Give the soldier an m16.

Armor-piercing rockets which don't explode on impact.
Pros:
- Minor knockback
- Impact does damage to ubered players.
- Impact does extra damage against buildings.
Contras:
- Delayed explosion
- Impact does less damage than regular rockets.
- No crits
Maybe heat-seeking rockets? Not corner-bending-super-rockets though.
Maybe a cannon attached to his chest that shoots maggots.

And critical hits when it gets a headshot.
No fuck you. Crits on dickshots.
Obviously that maggot entered his penis and laid dormant for a few months, and now it crawled out of head killing him.
Duh.
I hope it's a rocket launcher, but hopefully Valve will do something like Sascha and Natacha ( no im not saying theyre going to make the new rocket launcher slow you down )
I'm kind of hoping maybe have like, giant war heads
1 rocket, 4 reserve
something fun and cool, he's one of the most underpowered

The Solider needs a nuke.
He's so underpowered already.
The Nuke will kill anyone on the map. :)
The soldier needs nuclear powered weapons.
Since people in other pages were kinda complaining about soldier's low survivability alone ,like the heavy before he god the sammich, why doesn't the soldier get a morphine shot for his shotgun or something like that?
pros: makes him go 100% speed for "x" amount of time
+"x" temporary health that degrades for a period of time (like PEELZ)
cons: no shotgun for close range fighting
has to recharge like "bonk"
Taunt could be something along the lines of the soldier shooting up like 5 shots at once and just kinda.... trip out?
As long as its not an assualt rifle or any other variant along those lines im good
Any people here who played through fallout 3 and got all wepons *hehe* will remember the MISS LAUNCHER, the miss launcher traded the straight line of fire that the normal launcher had for an arc and greater damage SOO rocket arcs and less ammo or but does more damage eg 10 percent more or has a bigger splash *bigger splash is bad idea but come on its viable*. OR THE ROCKETS ARE FASTER *DING!*
RAWKET jump is insanely useful so im not touching it
FOR SHOTTY: i propose a way of dealing indirect damage that is weaker than the demos nades and stickies, they are called MAGGOT/NAPALM MINES, napalm mines light the person on fire plus some low damage or the maggot mines are purely explosive so just damage also the soldier/teamates can trip the mine so that they can mine jump, they take time to set up e.g 1~2 seconds and appear to the enemy like a cloaked spy to his teammates so that they are see through but visible
Shovel: shovel is awesome but underused as is so we need either a nice upgrade/tradeoff or a complete replacement, so for tradeoff theres Mine/rocket on a stick normal damage, insta crit kill on hit person and splash damage to soldier+surrounding people; After explosion the stick can only do 60 percent damage and wont be refilled until respawn. For complete replacement would be the shell-shocker, a throwable that decreases the damage of the hit person/people instead of increasing damage dealt on them or slows them down and makes them deaf for a while.
imagine the character responses: Soldier gets shellshcoked: "HEARING IS FOR MAGGOTS! I AM NOT A MAGGOT!"
Thompson SMG is a nice idea, but it must not have the round magazine and the compensator, if you know your WW2's then you know thompson is good as shit in auto fire without the 1-inch wonder we call the compensator, m1 garand is bad idea, gives sniping ability to a class that doesnt need it.
NOW FOR MY CRAP;
HOMER'S SPRINGFIELD SNIPER RIFLE LOL LOLS: +100 PERCENT DAMAGE ULTRACRIT ON HEADSHOT AND SPAWNS SHELLSHOCKERS AND JARATES ON ALL FOES WHEN IT IS SHOT PLUS IT UBERS ALL FRIENDS
What would be awesome is if he got a RPG that he can controll like in half-life.
I suggest one of those fireworks you place on the ground and it makes lots of noise while firing fireworks. We could call it the Screaming Eagle, it would function like a sticky bomb and would fire a bunch of flares and then explodes violently.

That sounds more like a pyro weapon.

Isnt a screaming eagle already a firework? Or was that a screeching eagle
How about some kind of rocket that can 100% crit on hits.
And less splash damage.
Could be useful around tight spots.
[QUOTE=Dronaroid;16197389]No, This is something stupid to hope for. The only weapons that are completely different on an update are the secondary ones.[/QUOTE]
Huntsman.
He should get something like UT3's rocket launcher. Except the rockets are much slower.
[QUOTE=gbtygfvyg;16251216]Huntsman.[/QUOTE]
Well, essentially it stills an accurate weapon that has slow rate of firing, needs to be charged and deals critical hits with headshots, so it stills being pretty much close to the sniper rifle.
cool ideas, mines better though.
i lightweight carbon smg like gun with ceramic plating, its black with silver tribal marks on it, it has 50000 bullets in one round and it shoots 10 bullets per seconds, and the bullets are made of diamond electro pulasting shockwaves, that when they pound into your flesh your flesh ripples and your skin melts off, you fire another and your organs blow up into tiny shreds of paper thin material, like confetti..
do i get an award for the most awesome gun ever? XD im joking :P
