It seems that when Im using a mass driver that the grenades dont explode. I can tell however if this is an issue with the graphics or with the grenades not exploding. Anyone have insight on this? |

I've encountered this too. It seems to be related to the flight-time of the grenade. If you let it fly a decent distance before hitting something, it explodes on contact. If you shoot at something too close.... It fizzles and nothing happens...
Arming delays are fine and all, but I'd still like the damn thing to explode after a few bounces. |

I actually feel that I've encountered the same thing but with grenades and REs (Oh yes, bring it!). There are times when no explosion seems to happen, the grenade or RE just disappears when it should trigger or is triggered.
I've always thought that it's a graphics bug, but I've never really tested the issue, it seems to occur quite randomly, though mostly (as you said) when the explosions are right next to you, or possibly when an RE is triggered very soon after it is thrown, though thinking back, this might actually be different.
Trying to remember I think I've seen this thing happen when I throw an RE next to the hacking module at an objective to explode any other REs there, the RE slides underneath the "legs" of the objective building and then triggering it (only perhaps a second after throwing) nothing happens.
So I'm thinking it might have something to do with being in tight, enclosed spaces or something similar.
That is all. |

MD grenade failure is a well reported problem in this build. It seems to be related to both hit detection and the actual angle the grenade hits the geometry. Maybe you noticed how few explosions you get when shooting on installations or vehicles. |

They just aren't detonating on impact. This will probably be fixed in the next patch.  |

I had a similar issue with remote explosives(never used as short range grenades, looking forward to 5 sec delay nerf, but not reduced count since many are needed to take out vehicles). I tossed a couple on a damaged surya, backed off and pushed button, merc pushed button on arm. Then nothing, tried four or five more times as tank drove off to repair, then they went off killed tank and gave me three kills. So, I know my remotes did go off at last. Why not the first time I activated them?
I have also noticed many dude av grenades and mass driver rounds, hope new build fixes it, if not please work on it ccp. The mass driver is ok even with the glitch, need to test if it's overpowered when bug is gone. |

Yes they actually explode, the animation doesnt show most of the time :( It also doesnt help that smoke trail animation isnt an accurate way to tell where the grenade actually lands |

I have already reported this several times in the past and this actually happens with all explosives. if the item causing the detonation hits you from certain angle it deals no damage and the explosion fails for some reason. most of the time this happens when you hit someone from lower altitude. you can easily reproduce this with a CRU => you can throw a remote explosive under some of the CRU, let it detonate and you will see no explosion and no damage done. |
