Removing the ability to throw remotes makes it impossible to place them on tanks, which is seriously a valid use for remotes. As is a tank will stutter back and forth to ensure remotes slide right off of them, so ues lets make it so that tanks can more easily run you over and shoot you down while theyre slip'n'sliding about keeping your remotes from sticking. Bad idea, thx. Youll prolly manage to get this terrible idea added and then ppl will stop using remotes forever.
RE's are not the only answer to tanks. You have Forge Guns, PLC, Swarms, Flux/AV Nade, Proxi RE.

I know dying to explosives is frustrating. But demolitions have to be leveled into like any other weapon.
If you died 5x in a match to a rifle would you be coming and asking for rifles to be broken beyond usefulness?
Of course not, but that's what happened with grenades and it was successful.
Now that's what you're trying to do with remotes and why? Because someone else decided to level into it and you didn't?
If remotes get broken than rifles need to be broken too. Hell just break the whole game.
Make all drop suits have infinite HP and all weapons do 0 damage
Using the 'slippery slope' method of argument is a logical fallacy and shouldn't be used. Obviously that won't happen. I do not think it's too much to ask to remove the range of deploying an RE to 0. To having it be dropped at your feet so you can't throw them like a grenade. But I see your concern. Here's what I think we should do.
We implement a protocol that allows us to either 'tap' the fire button for the RE which allows us to throw it like a grenade. Doing the same damage as a regular grenade of its quality level. However, if you want the big bang as it were, you'll need to arm it. So you'll have to go against a surface, hold the button while it takes one second to plant and arm. Then you can detonate it for maximum effect. I do not think this is unreasonable... do you?
I want to help DUST become a better experience for everyone. Let's work together!
