Grenades should bounce

[Glock_Coma]

I think that having bouncing nades would add to the gameplay and make it more realistic. Right now the nades stick to anything. Case and point: throw a nade at a wall...and it'll stick to it.

does it? i've not noticed tbh...i wouldn't think nades would bounce much as they were pretty heavy - unless its a hard smooth surface perhaps

 

[vbloke]

they seem to deflect off things - ive seen that. but after the initial deflection they do seem to "fall"
I would love it if i could hear it better when they land..... im sure they dont always make any noise - even when they land on concrete - maybe thats just me tho..

Grenades dont bounce dude in real life

I threw the russian nade at a metal pole, it bounced 45 degrees and landed smack down in a german mg-nest. It was beautiful.

I've bounced nades off walls plenty of times . They dont roll but thats ok, it makes them easier to use.

Don't grenades weight quite a lot? I mean they aren't superballs that bounce all the time but they're made of steel and weight a lot. As you may know, steel doesn't bounce

Yeah, its kind of impossible for grenades especially the potatoe masher to bounce, seeing as how they are steel. They should roll better though imo.

the round grenades in war had the advantage of fragmentation but had the problem of rolling down from hills. The stick grenades threw farther and didn't roll down hills as much, but they only used blast impact.

I guess we'll have to wait until the Unreal Engine 3.0 version of Red Orchestra...

Then grenades can be modelled with real-life gravity...
Everything can be affected with 1 physics setting, using gravity, bouyancy, etc.
