There is an indicator you just don't see it because everyone cooks their grenades.

I would be against this as it's to much handholding. Sound effects are very good at the moment and it adds statighy to a grenade throw depending on whether the target is in a quiet or loud area. Lol, I know, talking about grenades and strategy is a bit off with the present resupply mechanics. If an earlier idea of limiting grenade resupply to depot is brought in then strategy will become used by necessity.

Just something on the sound that a friend brought to light for me. He didn't realise that the pulse sound for each second of the grenade fuse was there due to the preset volume of the music and announcements blotted the sound out. This was just in the last week!! Since getting my mate to set up the same way I have my settings it has been alot better for him.

I've a basic set of stereo headphones and with music and announcements at level 10, chat at 80, and SFX at 60, I can hear a grenade bounce off the ground beside me with direction, or even the pulse sound from someone cooking it close by, even while shooting the HMG. Putting back in an indicator really is just removing some of the immersion that is possible, aside from being to much handholding.

If one looks where they are walking, seeing grenades is not an issue. Keep your eyes peeled for the red pineapples on the ground and stay away. The grenade indicator in chromosome was broken. It allowed information to be seen that should be earned not just freely given, much like seeing all mercs on your minimap if they are seen by one member of the team.

Is this in game settings? I'll have to go look at this.

So you sound ***** instead of looking for things visually?

Get out here bro! Same thing, different method.

I'm a fat HMG user so I've to use everything seeing as I'm blind radar wise. Obviously screen indicators would make life easier for me to attempt to waddle away, but my preference is for none, although I respect you desire for them. I'm happy to have the visuals purely from seeing a grenade being thrown in my view. Everyone to their own.

Lol my comment looks so insulting I meant to say "sound wh0re".

When someone throws a grenade I just want to know if they threw it left of me, right, above, below, inverted, black & white, Whatever!

Simple thing really.
In real life, I can look down and up in less than a second to get my bearings, in here you have to have your sensitivity at an unreasonable level.
