Hah, so true! I haven’t heard or seen anything about a portable rocket so I think you’re correct. The only heavy weapons (which won’t help against vehicles) are essentially the big machine gun and flamethrower, the same ones the heavy NPC’s have.

ryven@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 weeks agoWith regard to vehicle combat, I find it very strange that the very first NPC we meet has a man-portable surface-to-air missile launcher, but there don’t seem to be any anti-vehicular weapons that players can use.
Or at least I think there aren’t; I’m not nearly as far as you are, but I looked ahead in the research tab and didn’t see any.

There are lasguns, and the same missile launcher the NPC has is also craftable.

Oh nice! Do you know the name of the launcher? All my searches just bring up ornithopter rockets.

It’s called “Regis Missile Launcher” and is in the last tier.

You can craft that same missile launcher, it’s not even a unique weapon, but a normal tech tree unlock. You can also use a lasgun against vehicles (which you need to find a schematic for or gain from a mission).

Oh cool, I guess I just didn’t see it!
