Overview

This rocket launcher gameplay prototype is inspired by the FGM-172 SRAW from Battlefield 4. The SRAW is more complicated to implement in Unreal than the other rocket launchers in the game, and I wanted that challenge. I was also motivated to implement the SRAW as it is a weapon I admire deeply from a gameplay design perspective.

I also got to learn about wire-guided missile systems, which is strangely fascinating.

The video below shows the outcome of my first 5 hours of work on this prototype. I did my best to capture the look and feel of using an FGM-172 SRAW Rocket Launcher.
