All grenade resupply should be removed from the game, you should get 2 grenades until you die and no possibility of getting more |

I think this is alright, as a defender that holds a resupply point should be able to fight off an onslaught somehow. |

This is the problem.
They changed grenades to cater to people who've never played video games before, so they can get some kills. It's absurd. Give us back our old grenades please, or at least take out the option to cook grenades, since you clearly don't want skill to be involved with them in any way, shape, or form. |

i would rather see the timer increased from 2 seconds to 3.5 or 4 seconds AND have grenades use up more nanites so the hives expired faster and would make higher level nanohives more valuable.

It's a shame really. If it acts like a grenade, looks like a grenade and behaves like a grenade.. Then it must be deadly and hence forth nerfed. |

Lets just take all the violent weapons out of the game and throw rocks at each other 0o. On a serious note, why stop at grenades? lets get rid of the mass drivers as well, surely we all hate someone spamming it. I say adapt,if you see an enemy, hesitate before rushing full blast,. A grenade spammer is no worse than a sniper,once you know the POS,advance with caution and lay their soul to rest. |

I do not disagree with you, but which gives more pleasure and takes more skill(or a little luck)?
A well thrown grenade that produces a triple kill.
or a Mass Driver camping above you waiting for the aimed shot that produces a triple kill? |

This is an example of what happens when you mess around with things too much. It seems as if someone has a compulsion that they cannot resist. Instead of changing one thing to nerf a weapon or suit, three things get changed. THey decide to tweak the grenade toss and, well, this happens. Hopefully there will come a time when when we can all leave well enough alone.
But since this is beta, might as well scratch that itch. In this case the changes to grenades were for the most part not improvements.
We used to have some grenades that exploded on contact, cavity thukker, so on. And basic grenades with a long timer that could be cooked. There was a decent difference between the various types of grenades and they seemed to work well.
There was no forum outcry about grenades, no reason at all to change the timer so that all grenades immediately turned into explode on contact basically.
The re-supply your grenades thing is valuable, and can really help when you are dealing with vehicle spam and need to get more av nades. It helps to keep the LAV derby in check in pub matches.
But right now the militia grenade and a supply depot or nanohive is the poor man's mass driver. Hopefully the timer will be changed back to something like it used to be to allow players to use more skill, planning and timing to get kills with grenades. I used to get some satisfaction out of a good grenade kill. Now they just feel cheap. |
