Remote explosive needs 3sec kd timer after drop, before activation.
Otherwise, this is grenade with 1,5k damage.

Honestly, remotes are 100% fine as is.
I say this as someone who only gets blown up by them, and gets blown up by them regularly.
They require a modicum of intelligence to use, require a good amount of intelligence to use well, and act as a balancing point so that little guys can kill big guys. (Tanks, fatties.)
They're the scissors in rock, paper, scissors. Leave 'em alone.

Nah. They arent thrown very far, why are you getting within like 3M of me, or letting me within 3M of you? Treat all scouts as though they have a shotgun and keep your distance. I never quick RE solid players. They recognize it and move to the side. |

Solid proof that REs are a tool of the devil
In several parts you can see where he's even using some sort of sick MIND CONTROL to FORCE his enemies to stray close to the REs, because obviously nobody would be inattentive enough to not notice a brown box of boom, or dumb enough to sit on top of the RE he saw thrown at him instead of immediately moving away from it. IT IS WITCHCRAFT!
CCP could increase the timer to 10 seconds and I guarantee you I will find a player who will strafe on top of it trying to shoot at me for the entire arming time and then start a thread complaining about "RE grenades" when I press the boomswitch |

I run a heavy and I think remotes are 100% fine right now. They are a great teaching tool. Every time I blow up I learn more about situational awareness. |

My only complaint is the ability to use them while bleeding out. That is where you can get the stupid stuff of someone running into a room, tossing one, people kill him, and then the remote detonates . If someone is able to leap frog over people, throw remotes all over the place, and detonate them after getting to safety, perfect for them. But I just feel that having to get away or detonate them before you die should be required is all. |

RE's have a 2 second activation time already. Long enough for you to move 5 meters away.
Grenades can be thrown 20+ meters. RE's can only be thrown within humping distance. |

I don'tmean 100% of heavies and protoscrubs thinklike that. i know theres hope somewhere on Dust514 in terms of learning from being exploded.

It is WAY more than three metres. There is something very wrong when a thrown remote is treated is a primary weapon for face-to-face confrontations. Especially when it has a longer range than a shotgun. |

No.. it's about 3m. You can't even use inertia to help throw them most times. Try placing one on a ceiling after jumping, and they just fall straight back down. I know they stick upside down because I've placed them on dropship undersides (Makes it hard for them to ever land.) and the ceiling of certain rooms that have banisters you can hop onto.
If you can read this, it means you are reading.

On top of that, you have to switch to them, and they can be destroyed safely.

Yesterday I placed an RE trap on a wall and baited three heavies and two logis running shoulder to shoulder. They fell into my trap, I hit the button, boom...five deaths. It was awesome. They had no situational awareness and thought they could steamroll my little scout suit. They were wrong.
A large majority of scouts use REs now. If you don't realize this you suck. And if you think you can chase a shout for an easy kill you deserve to be blown up.
Gun control is not about guns...it's about control.
The only way to ensure freedom is by having the means to defend it.

I'll try to explain my thought: RE should not be able to be activated immediately after installation, must be present certain period of time, after which you can explode (beep-beep-beep, ready!).
Without this option, the suit meager price becomes an instrument for the impunity destruction of property of substantial value.
ProScouts must have bonus to reduce RE time-to-ready.

Yeah, that will make them usable in what situation exactly?
Now we can kill vehicles with them. We can put them on walls for enemies chasing us to find. We can actually turn the tide of battle by using them in choking points. Or to guard our back in Mutually Assured Destruction scenario when we're on our own behind enemy lines.
We sacrifice equipment for them. No ammo, no scanner, no uplink to farm. We've got three of them.
And still people who cry in topics like this one are people who actually SEE me dropping the RE on the ground and try to SPRINT over it. Every time. I'm sorry, but you should get good.
Cheers,
