Master the RPG in Duke Nukem Forever! Learn its firing modes, the powerful tracking rocket, and how to perform the risky but rewarding rocket jump. We cover its evolution too!

Alright, let's talk about the RPG in Duke Nukem Forever. This bad boy is a heavy hitter, firing rockets with a serious splash radius. You've got two ways to blast with it: 1. Standard Rocket: Just a regular rocket shot. Good for general mayhem. 2. Tracking Rocket: This is where it gets fun. Keep your crosshairs on an enemy. You'll see them change from green to yellow, then red. Once it's red, the rocket will lock onto that sucker. Keep the lock by firing again while still on target – it'll keep tracking! Now, for a classic Duke move: rocket jumping. Look down, fire the RPG, and jump. You'll launch yourself higher and farther, but fair warning, it'll cost you some health. Use it wisely! The RPG actually went through a bunch of looks during development, which is pretty cool to see: * 1997-1998: A really unique-looking version. * 1999-2002: This one looked a lot like the classic RPG from Duke Nukem 3D. * 2002-2004: Similar stance to the final version, but with a different, more detailed white texture. * 2006: Used white textures and had some resemblance to the final RPG. * 2009: Got updated textures and a different positioning. It's always neat to see how weapons evolve, right?
