It's really only me and fawkuima that are getting this? I'm considering giving on locuses because cooking goes wrong so often.

BUMP because the grenade bug still hasn't been fixed. CCP, please look at this. I provide details on how to reproduce the glitch below.

1. Start cooking grenade.
2. Move to/aim at location where you want the grenade to go.
3. The half cooked grenade mysteriously disappears out of your hand and goes back on your belt without exploding!

My theory for what is happening here is that at stage 1 I'm fully depressing the L2 button, but in the course of moving/aiming (stage 2) the button becomes only semi-depressed. For some reason semi-depressed is reading as 'return pin to grenade and put back on belt' rather than 'keep cooking grenade'. Whatever the cause, I'd appreciate a fix, as it really impacts playability for me.

You have a different problem than the OP. At least I think so.

What you have is a problem with your controller. Try the newest DS3 you can get your hands on. If you are unable to repeat the problem then repair or replace the DS3.

DUST will have weird menu issues when your controller is starting to get tired. Specifically the menus will scroll way more than you want. That could also be from having more than one DS3 plugged in (so don't do that).

Note that I have had to repair one and replace another to play DUST. The odd thing, to me anyway, is those same controllers could be used in other games.


Good Luck.

i appreciate your input on the subject, but this is not the problem. the bug occurs in the process of cooking a grenade not after or during the throw. the location of the grenade being thrown as nothing to do with the disappearance. as far as i know this is the correct forum, if it is not, then i welcome the move to the correct one. i have searched the forums for related topics but came up flat. nothing i know of is reporting any similar issue.
if you have feed back on ways to make this post more specific i welcome the suggestions.

See this happen to more so heavies not taking any damage from grenades despite them blowing up under there feet. When ever i see people using core grenades they always work up to 4 meters away. M1 and under i've noticed this problem. But with the number of people that get spawn killed from being spawned in the middle of a battle during ambushes. Not on an uplink. The screen is too glitched when you join into battle to react on time for those grenade cookers and people knowing that you will spawn in the middle of them so they are ready for you.

Grenades tend to be over used.

Lot more people are nade spamming.

In the OP you mention two issues: the thing with semi-cooked grenades going back on the belt (the problem I'm also having) and thrown grenades not causing damage. Kal is saying that the second issue is a map glitch, i.e. the map is swallowing the grenade. If you like you could edit the OP so it doesn't mention thrown grenades not causing damage, which is quite a separate issue from the cooking issue.

Hopefully the Devs will note this thread and decide to respond to the problem.

If it doesn't then the other option is to file a petition (CCP's name for a trouble ticket) at [email protected] although my usual caution applies, these are real people so be polite, like you have been todate. They usually respond with an automated email before a person will reply so be patient.
