The problem is the fuse on grenades is too long for the pathetic damage they do, so people use REs instead.
EDIT: Oh, and their crap capacity too. |

And that's called "sometimes you just die, sh*t happens, deal with it".
People whine about REs for the same reason they whine about snipers: because you can't beat them by spamming them with an assault combat rifle (aka: the "right" way to play) |

Frizbeeing REs when youre outgunned is the right way to play?
The point is, there is no "right" way to play. |

The activation delay for the RE should really be set to 10 seconds for standard REs so their use is shifted to their intended role as a trap device. Add to that that the game frequently glitches the remote in the air so it disappears as it leaves the hand, so you cant really know where the heck it went until it explodes. this is my biggest problem more than anything since I think im clear but I actually moed into it booom im dead
See, this is an actual gripe, because it's an exploitable part of the game, like LAV/HMG heavies. Not someone whining "I don't like this style of play, take it away!" |

Scout with ultra dampeners throws REs like a grenade... Completely working as intended.. Suuuuure.
REs should have a longer activation charge and the damage/range from the RE should be looked at. That would make them pointless. What I'm asking for is a "hack timer" or something that immobilizes the soldier dropping it so it can't be used as a breaching tool, but a trap, as intended.
How is using them as a trap the "intended" use? They are remote explosives. They blow up and kill/destroy crap when you trigger them. That's all. I don't remember reading "use for traps only" in the description. |
