throwing back grenades

[karstinpk]

am i the only one that thinks throwing back grenades would be a good thing?

No you are not the only one. If you used the Search function in the forum you would know this.

been talked about A LOT

but not much since the beta came out

People said it wouldn't be possible as you wouldn't have the time.

Well I've seen enough that I'm convinced I could toss my fair share back, and probably even kill the stupid player who threw them without cooking them.

 

[Luckless]

I've definitely been killed by grenades that I would have had time to toss out of the area safely, such as throwing out a window, but had no time to sprint clear of.

The only thing it would require is some safety checks for TKs on nades picked up by the other team. The whole dual ownership issue is one that I haven't seen handled well in games that do offer this feature. (ie, I pick up a nade that I don't actually have time to throw clear, I would have been dead either way, but because I picked it up, it 'became mine', and therefore I 'killed myself', and possibly some teammates.)

 

[Justin MacDuro]

Totally agree , this thing should be added .

Throwing and kicking grenades away is a real life tactic, and it should be implemented.

Trenches even include a secondary grenade trench that you kick a live grenade into to minimize the damage it causes to you and your teammates.

I mean, the whole reason you cook grenades is so that the enemy can't throw them back!

I've had a grenade land right in front of my face while i was prone, and all i could do was stare at it.

I could have easily just tossed it away.

so yeah, throwback would be nice

I agree, but make sure that the grenades "ownership" is still the original throwers. As i see it if you are throwing a grenade you should make sure the enemy can't use it to his advantage. Would help keep players from wasting both of their grenades on one target.

what do u mean?

 

[Josef Nader]

If the enemy team throws your grenade back, and it kills one of your team mates, you get points off for team killing because it's technically your fault for not cooking the grenade.

 

[Lipton Iced Soup]

Exactly what i meant.

Even if it would be implemented, 95% of times it would explode before you pick it, other 5% : it explodes .1 sec after you throw it, and die anyway.

 

[Dödluvan]

Not realistic, not gonna happen.

 

[Coreldan]

I'd be just happy with even a possibility to kick it. Seeing that they seem to have pretty OK physics (they will roll downhill from corpses etc), so all you need to add is some acceleration from the characters end and it would push the grenade a fair share to the direction you are facing. You might end up kicking it to a bunch of friendlies, though

Also allow me to jump on the grenade and shower my allies in blood whilst saving their hides.

 

[Sgt.NightFire]

I remember Medal Of Honor Airborne had the Kick grenade away option, it was awesome kicking a grenade back to the enemy and than seeing his grenade explode in his own face...

Not true

As I've said, there were many times where throwing them back would have been completely possible
