I'll start:
I have yet to play another game where the (Locus/flux) nade mechanics are this good. I can make my nades hit exactly where and when I want them to as long as I'm focused and playing well.
I bounce them on the floor and they'll roll foreward predictably almost every time, I can bounce them off walls and I can make them explode over people's heads when they're behind cover as long as my timeing is up to par.
I very rarely die from other nades since they're normally "spottable" and its mostly the very skilled or the total random throw like in all shooters that gets me the very few times they kill me.
KZ 2 also had great nade mechanics, but I like Dust's better.
In this ara at least - Great job CCP!
Sorry,but I find the grenade mechanics to be not very good in this game,and this is coming from a former MAG player that had about 10k frag grenade kills.
Reaction time is too slow when throwing.The physics are better than before,but still need work.The character's all have wuss arms.
Sorry,but there's no way I can agree with this post.
As for what this game does better than any other shooter,I struggle to come up with anything.I'm not hating,it's just that right now it's a subpar shooter. |

LOL - you couldn't even cook the nades in MAG, even the most elite of players used to toss them in the enemies general direction, I've seen enough MAG vids to claim this. There might be people out there but I haven't seen a single MAG vid with skilled nade gameplay. Lots and lots of players swapped the nades out for an Acoustic locator or whatnot. They had a very long range, a quality I don't miss in Dust, it feels about right. I think the reaction time should be what it is. Its moronic that someone can go from wielding a gun to toss a nade in the blink of an eye, this is even more so with insta nades. When the nades are cooked the release time is instant, as it should be. And for the record, it would surprice me if I had less than 10K nade kills so far in Dust....
You haven't seen skilled MAG nades because I was never able to make a video.I do have player testimony that can corroborate my skills with them though.
Another problem with the nades in Dust is that once you pull is out,it's automatically armed,something that I find to be quite stupid.The way is should work is you push L2 to pull it out,then push again to cook and throw.
Sorry,but just from my unparallelled skill level in using grenades in MAG,I just feel like these grenades aren't nearly as good. Sounds like you like them more realistic,which is fine,but doesn't make for fun gameplay.
