Can we make sure that flux grenades remain as they were, because they aren't spammed.
Please?

Heavies have more density than smaller targets so it should be the other way round. |

I meant slightly higher damage to larger targets, and slightly lower damage to smaller targets. Heavies have more density than smaller targets so it should be the other way round. They already have more health! Anyway, an explosion's damage is caused by three things: the heat, the shrapnel and the shockwave. The larger the target, the more likely it is to be hit by shrapnel. The more surface area, the more of the shockwave's energy that the object absorbs. Pretty much the same for heat.
Anyway, we are getting off-track here. When it comes to an explosion, being larger is like being closer. A large ball a moderate distance away from an explosion will often take as much force as a small ball that is close to the explosion. It can handle it better, but the amount of force exerted is similar.
Regardless, I wasn't really referring to heavies. Why would I? The size difference is barely there. It might be heavier, sure, but in terms of surface area and volume, it's nearly the same. |

Things with less density get ripped apart by the pressure change alot easier but you are right about the heavy taking more shrapnel. |

Regardless, a larger object will be hit with more force than a smaller one, even without shrapnel. |

Quote:Get rid of nanohive restock. No. Instead, add a delay to prevent spamming. Regardless, grenades don't work like they should. In modern military usage, grenades can still cause damage ten meters away, but in Dust 514 you can completely avoid damage by standing a few meters back. It's not about physical realism, mind you, it's about tactical realism. Grenades in Dust 514 are NOT the equivalent of modern grenades. Furthermore, it's not the equivalent in terms of damage, either. A locus grenade at your feet is more lethal than three or four assault rifle rounds to your head in Dust 514, but in the real world it's the other way around. You might get your legs blown off, but it's less lethal than multiple bits of metal going through your brain at high speeds.
How is it confusiong? The current STD grenades become the new ADV, ADV become the new PRO, and PRO become the OFF. New STD would have to be created, and then all dmg profiles would have to be brought in closer together. |
