Default More questions

Sorry if these have already been answered somewhere else.

1. How many grenades soldiers(each class) carry on default? 1 or 2? 32 player server, all have 2 nades --> 64 nades exploding everywhere --> not fun.

2. Has the nades kill zone been reduced/made more complex? 3.3 they are too effective.

3. Can you still throw the nades very far or is the throw distance shorter now?

4. What actions have been done regarding hip shooting. I think that hip shooting should be included(what's the purpose of smgs without it?), but it should be made less effective/accurate.

5. Manual bolting? Yes or no?

6. Is it possible to remove hud information completely? (ammunition, health, other things)

7. I see that there is a feature called bayonet charges. What does this mean exactly? You can sprint while still able to stab with bayonet?

I understand if you want to keep some things unrevealed. If you do, say so, but don't just ignore. Thank you.

I quess it depends are you a normal guy or trained athlete. But since trained athletes can throw a javelin 75-85 meter average(over 90m if you are very good), I guess that throwing a ball is somewhat less than that.

But if you are a soldier with heavy gear on you + rifle on your back I guess that you can't throw it very far.

Anyway, just make the distance so it is good for gameplay and not too unrealistic.

TBH it's very easy to throw a baseball/rock long distances.
I have a friend who can throw a tennis ball probably 100 feet with moderately good accuracy. Personally I have a bad arm and could probably only achieve half that.
It's still a long ways. I have a problem though with people running, jumping, and launching the nade and it going where they throw it. I can't see that happening IRL.

I can throw a baseball around 40m. Not too much but Iīm not very athletic.
With my backpack on my back in a snowballfight on the way home, I can throw the snowball only ~25-30m.
But both isnīt too accurate. In fact it isnīt accurate at all...

Completely irrelevant. A regulation baseball weighs between 142 and 149 grams while a primed F1 grenade weighs 600 grams. A very good major league baseball player can throw a baseball accurately ~90 meters (300 feet) and it weighs 1/4 what an F1 grenade weighs. If you're in battle, tired and tweaked on adrenaline, maybe you can heave a grenade 30 meters. I think some of the arguments about the distances grenades travel in RO:TheMod revolve around a misconception of the distances in the game... Things are closer than they appear.

The furthest a grenade had been thrown was 70 or 80 meters by a German with a Stielhandgrenate. I know Wilsonam knows about this. A better example would be to take a 1 or 2 pound weight and try and throw it as far as you can.
