I’ve been hoping for drone recall for a looonnnggg time, basically gave up hope of going stealth when I was running with a drone because sometimes they decide to blast a non-aggo’d bug 50m away

Same, will make it much more viable

Programmable ammo on the recoilless I'm hoping is like the flak - range based detonation.

That's my assumption, but as an anti-tank weapon I can't imagine it would have good AP capability with a prox detonation. But hey, if they add that capability then fuck yeah, I love it.

That would be a nice way to differentiate it from the other rocket launchers like the EAT, Commando, and Quesar. Right now only run RR if it’s a bot elimination mission because it one shots dropships, otherwise I would prefer the quasar because the free backpack slot is worth the slight damage reduction to me.

Hope the stalwart gets some decent armour peircing

Air Burst is such a generous weapon. It gracefully gave RR programmable ammo.
