why doesnt soldier use a jetpack instead of wasting his rockets?
Would be a waste of a secondary slot
>>738713432It would be a shitty secondary if it works just like pyro's
>>738713498>>738713508it should work like rocket jumping does, but simpler since you dont need to 180 everytime u wanna jump
Pyro's jetpack should work like Demoman's charge. Sacrificing a proper secondary should be enough of a downside.
>>738713432Because he doesn't have one
>>738713562Well it would be a funny way to self handicap the shitters who can't rocket jump
>>738713498>he says while using the mantreads or the concheror
>>738713432Honestly if a soldier jetpack worked like >>738713565 and you took reduced fall damage it could be an interesting sidegrade to gunboats, and you can still rocket jump if it's on cooldown or in an emergency

>>738713432Because that's SOULLESS and doesn't match his personality.
>>738713432Gameplay wise, rule of cool.At least i prefer rocket jumping mechanics over press button to jetpack.
Then he'd just be the Egyptian bitch from Overwatch, who was herself clearly made to be a more brainless version of him
>>738713432>>738714149Actually it's just because they included unintended gameplay from the original mod as a feature in this game, same as frame linking in fighting gamessource: pyro even gets a jetpack but soldier doesn't
Soldier can rocket jump, Demoman can sticky jump, medic can (sort of) rocket jump with the quick fix, Engie can sentry jump and Scout is just fast as fuck. Now come up with fun movements mechanics for the other mercs
>>738713432Rocket jumping in tf2 universe is actually very safepeople used it to get to higher floors of buildings before Abraham Lincoln invented stairs
>>738714831reminder that the tf2 universe abe lincoln invented stairs, and then he died trying to rocket jump UP the stairs. he didn't even understand the purpose of his own invention lol
>>738714231yeah but overwatch is gay and retarded, tf2 would make it cool
>tf2fags still fighting against overwatch a decade later

>>738714365pyro can already jump with the detonator/thermal thrustergive heavy the ability to quickly tumble down slopes, slamming enemies in his pathgive sniper the ability to reverse his own gravity because he's australiangive spy a gun that makes him swap place with an enemy and disguise as them (not necessarily killing them in the process)
