That is all. :3

use your little brain to count. its cute and pink

I think there's no need to know more than the current speed of the rocket. But that doesn't mean that I'm completely against your idea...

wait, why is my brain ugly and gray....

 

[LazyFecks]

I mean yeah you can just count it but it's not as convenient when you are trying to focus on tracking the rocket and while you have music playing too.

It's just more information that I think would be nice to have.

its a piece of old meat with electricity going through it

Not really useful tbh, would make players steal more to increase their counter. (And this makes more work for us DB admins)
If you need to count your rocket reflected, just buy a strange part and use your flamethrower only on one specific server

 

[LazyFecks]

Sorry I don't think I explained right in that case.

No, I don't mean a total amount of reflects, I mean in the life of one rocket.

E.G: "LazyFecks Died to a Rocket travelling at 195mph (15 Reflects!)

EDIT: Total amount of rocket reflects can actually be tracked per server VIA HLStatsX

 

[Djusan]

Still, some players will steal just to make more reflects.
Also, it doesn't prove anything to be honest, you can die after 2 reflects at 70 mph or you can die after 1 reflect at 250+ mph, I see no point of showing this stat then.
As I read previously in this thread, only the speed you died is important tbh, you can count if you want to know how many reflects you die during a round (Even if you're rallying, it never goes beyond 50+)

A Rocket reflected once is never gonna be 250mph, and I'm not saying it's how many times you as a single player has reflected the one rocket in play.

I'm talking the amount of times the rocket itself has been reflected before it kills, and yeah it's not needed by any stretch but that's just a thing I would have liked to see is all.

Ok, let's say two players are rallying.
If the rocket gets 20 reflects and then gets switched to you, you get the (20 reflects) message. What's the point? You died without reflecting once, that'll just annoy players imo.

 

[vinny]

i don't see how it would annoy players, its just a fun quality of life suggestion
edit lol cute: you are defending this too much for little to no reasoning

 

[Djusan]

We have a lots of thing to work on db before doing this kind of thing tbf,
"annoy" is maybe a bad and strong word here but it is in my opinion useless to have a counter like this.
