Would be more epic if we didn't have to reload.

From the tf2 wiki page:

so it does fire from the center according to that post since it says rockets go straight into the xhair which the regular rl ones dont

Yeah, it fires straight down the crosshairs, like a hitscan weapon (so technically the rocket comes out of your eyes). It does change how you have to rocket jump. In particular, horizontal jumps are much harder. You have to turn 180 degrees and hold back to get a good jump. With any of the other launchers you only have to turn 130 degrees or so and you can just hold left.

I've heard that it may become craftable soon since the game is banned in Germany and those who bought the game before the promotion got kinda screwed over.
