Default Throwing back life grenades

Hey lads,

to get this a bit more concrete as every 5th thread is mentioning the ability to return the hot egg to the sender. Therefore a simple poll thread: Yes or no?

Plz vote!

EDIT: For some reason I couldn't add the poll, sorry.

Couldn't care less, as long as if its implemented its done in a realistic way. In most matches i play in everybody primes their nades anyway.

I want the grenades to be glowing like in the allegedly "Most realistic FPS", OFP2.

Seriously though, nothing wrong with throwing grenades back as long as it doesn't distract the devs from more important things. And the pick-up system has to be improved...

No, IMO.

In real life it is extremely rare. It would be over used in game, so I think it isn't worth putting it in.

I say yes. Also I think that being able to cook grenades isn't realistic yet its in the game already. So why not be able to pick a nade up and throw it its an additional option to running from it the more options the better.

Ofcourse that it completely realistic, thereīs no question about that.

Itīs just a different story, was "cooking" used that much. And thatīs because the fuses were sometimes burning on random/wrong speed, because of the varying quality and errors in mass production. Nasty surprise.

How's it different? Sounds almost like the same argument to me. What soldier is going to stand around and cook a live grenade if it was me I'd want something that's going to kill me in 5 seconds away from me as soon as possible. Even more if the fuse is 3 or 4 seconds long. Same with throwing a live grenade back if you have 2 seconds to lob a grenade over cover or as far as you can get than it should be possible. Realistically if a grenade is 5 meters from you you're not going to run to it to throw it away your going to run the opposite direction and take cover. If you chose to do this in game its your own fault for killing yourself. But if a grenade falls right at your feet you definitely should have the options to lob it away from yourself.

Yep. Youīre right.

What I meant is that cooking a nade is a realistic feature, but it was not used that much, because it was sort of inestimable and dangerous (unreliable fuses). And that is not portrayed in game. Maybe it should be.

And about throwing back grenades. I didnīt argue about it to a direction or a another. I know itīs realistic. My grandfather told me, that he saw it done more than once on the front. But like he said, one had to be really swift guy to do that, and lucky too.

But sure, itīs realistic in the same way as cooking off. Because it was possible to do. But I still canīt decide, should it be in. There are good arguments from both of point of views.

Include it but don't improve the pickup system. That should solve the problem of people doing it all the time.

Yes - but I think you should punt/slap the nade away.
You click "use" and it gets flicked a short lob away like you kicked it clear, in the direction your facing.

You're not picking it up and throwing it back - only Clint Eastwood does that in Where Eagles Dare and you guys just aren't that awesome...

What would be good (and easy to implement) is being able to lie on a newly delivered nade and limit the damage it does - maybe saving your comrades lives who would normally be cleaned up.

Again - this all needs to done with an element of sensibleness...

yes just because it would be nice to have the option. it would not happen often because you can cook your nades. but it would be interesting if your trapped in small room or bunker and a nade flies in and you toss it back killing your would be killers!!!

That's mostly the situation I got in mind. A nade right in front of your feet and you can't do anything.
