They just need to get rid of the AH PANIC NADE button and make a switch mechanic where you have to switch to the nade and then press R1 to throw it and then pull back up your gun. If you are going to throw nades it should make to vulnerable to someone gunning your down for a few moments. Just make pressing L2 like pressing R2 to swap weapons.....make L2 pull up and swap between equipment (Nade, Hive, needle)

I support

R1 - Shoot
L1 - ADS
R2 - Swap Between Main/Sidearm
L2 - Swap Between Equipment/Grenades (would requre grenade rework so you take out grenades before throwing them.)

I like the cooked grenade idea, was running as a militia heavy today and died the first 4 times to grenades. Can't say I can complain too much though, because I laid a nanohive on top of one of the builidings and spammed grenades for a minute.

It's just too easy to tap L2 on a wish and a prayer.

I like the idea to have L2 switch between grenades and equipment, but really what needs to happen is to lengthen the the fuse on the locus grenades so you have to cook it to use it effectively against suspecting people. I think 4-5 seconds should be good amount of time before the grenade blows.

Longer timer is the answer with cook for shorter effect.

That said many ppl including myself have all our merc pack goodies back which mean fused locus nades(no timer, straight blow up on impact).

Fair warning my dragonfly shotty will be rocking those till i can move back into std logi/md/flux combo. So if you see me run cause i got nanohives and nade spam addiction till they are all gone, ive only died 3 times with that suit so ive still got 47 more uses unless i buy another merc back..

Consider it payback for all the stomping i took when i first came onto this beta 3 weeks ago.

I don't agree with the people wanting to switch between grenades and equipment. The draw-time on a grenade already seems longer than other shooters, while the max distance seems very short to me. I do think a 5 second fuse would be a nice variant, but the Militia grenades only come with 2 rounds for them, take a while to toss out, and don't travel very far. I mostly play with a sniper or laser gun, they aren't good up close. Dropping a grenade at my feet to deter a direct pursuit is a tactic.

Making grenade worse is not the solution for suicide grenades. A better fix is what other systems use and give you credit for the kill if you "assisted" in the self-death

I just think it's because everybody health is low right now because of the reset. That's why everyone is spamming the grenades because they are easy kills.

dedicated grenade button has to go.

At least 70% of my deaths from today have been for players tossing nades.
