Last night I was killed twice by a player who tossed/dropped a remote explosive and detonated it like an "instant" grenade. Does anybody else think that's bogus?
I'm fine with somebody mining someplace with an explosive or getting killed by a grenade, but by using a remote explosive as an improvised "insta-grenade"? Give me a break. |

Heh, well it's the first time it's happened to me in over 10 months of playing. Sorry if I'm re-hashing old stuff.
But seems a bit unfair to just "drop and trigger" something that can instant kill. at least I can take a hit from a contact grenade in my heavy suit. Maybe if something that "large" of a damage thing had some sort of activation delay or something? |

If you let the guy get i range to toss and wait for the delay to detonate, all while you couldn't react, YOU HAD IT COMING. GG 
Sure didn't seem to be a delay involved to me. |

Here is a scenario your a heavy trudging up a set of stairs a scout jumps from the upper ledge and before you can react they throw not place an RE it slides down the stairs and BAM your dead. WTF, that is F***** stupid. You should have to set them it should take 2-3 seconds to place not throw an RE. I am a heavy were the F*** am I supposed to go, I cant jump more than an 1in. You can take that BS somewhere else.
I have to agree with Calvin on this. I can see that it has amusement value but my decked out heavy, like Calvin's, can't move worth a darn, and reference to another poster, it was that supply depot area where i got smoked by a RE.
As another poster indicated, there is amusement value.
I should point out that the "RE" grenade took out another player, me, and a spawn point (I think).
Hardly seems fair. And I bet that scout suit was dirt cheap too. |
