I think the ark is fine. You don't throw a grenade at eye level that's just silly, it will end up closer to you than the enemy. As for the not exploding part are you sure they didn't explode mid flight? if you throw too far they can explode before hitting the ground. |

As for the not exploding part are you sure they didn't explode mid flight? if you throw too far they can explode before hitting the ground. I still think it's too high, I can't lob it across a room without it hitting a ceiling. I have to look 45 degrees down to do it properly. It makes no sense. Also, yeah, I'm sure they don't blow up sometimes. I'll throw a nade and I'll wait for it to explode, and it won't. Possibly a lag thing.
Maybe I'll have to watch out for that. But if they chage the ark you will not be able to throw as far or over containers like you can now because if you decrease the default angle you decrease the maximum angle too. |

Nope! It should stick to your leg and follow you! Bah I still want the ability to grenade myself to respawn when I'm down. Such a waste of a good grenade.

Honestly there's a few clipping things they need to fix with greneades first. More than once i've had grenades bounce off, or even stick to, invisible parts that extend from the scenery. Mostly this happens with pipes, buildings and fortification walls. |
