The whole grenade/throwing knife thing
By: Triumph-Rat Date: March 17, 2020, 11:14 am

Right, to start with, I am a fat (ish) middle (to late) aged man
(confirmed) who considers exercise to be walking from the living
room to the kitchen to make another coffee (sorry, meant fetch
another beer).
So how is it that I can throw things faster than highly trained,
athletically fit soldiers????
Also, I am pretty sure that if I have something in my hand (for
example a live grenade) and someone kills me I will drop it,
therefore still causing it to explode and not just wink out of
existence like something out of Harry Potter.
Or is there some element of grenade behaviour I am missing ????

Disappearing frags, thermite etc.. are very annoying.

One of my favorite moves with a grenade was in Advanced Warfare
domination. I would go to cap a flag and I would load and hold
a semtex, then lay prone near the flag. If someone then killed
me, the semtex would automatically release, unbeknownst to the
enemy who would rush in to take the flag...and then get blown
up! I got many a kill that way...the revenge was sweet. ;)

I havent had that issue yet(thank god) but i do feel your pain
in other departments.
Im no athlete but i can pick up a bottle of beer and throw it
faster than my character can pull a grenade out and throw it. I
dont get why CoD isnt more real world about this. You get two at
most and might be able to restock the grenades. Its not like
throwing them right would make you over powered.
This is also a complaint i have with rocket launchers.
Id fire a rocket only to die when my rocket is just coming out
the barrel. When i die my launched, primed rocket disappears
like it wasnt about to explode. If that doesnt get me raging,
switching to and bringing ANY launcher to sights is like
watching my grandma lift a sandbag. As if Id be op if i could
launch ONE rocket 3 seconds faster.

I am using the Strela as my last launcher to get gold and even
if you get to fire and it lands at their feet it still doesn't
kill them!!
ITS A ROCKET, IT BLOWS THINGS UP!!!!!!! [emoji51]

I'll be honest, I still don't understand why we don't drop
grenades upon death. It would definitely make it more
interesting for those running scavenger, to have to get up close
to my dead body, where there might be a grenade.
Even though I consider myself in decent shape (thanks entirely
to having a beagle that demands 2 miles of walking every day,
even when my back can't handle it), and despite being a college
baseball player, I, too, have nothing on the arms of these
soldiers who Chuck grenades.
Oh well, in the grand scheme of things, I don't really give a
shiit until I bounce a grenade off of the side of a building
while attempting to throw it through a window. That, more than
anything, honks me off. Campers? Fine, they outplay me.
Quickscopers? They've honed their craft, so good on them. My own
damn frag grenade, that's where I get peaced off, because its my
own fault, lol.

The Strela was the third one (second to last) launcher I
levelled up to gold. I experienced the same frustration. It had
to be a direct hit to get the kill. Argh!
