Yeah, I'm reading that and rolling..

Hand grenades as melee weapons? Well, credit for originality there, frissy.

Same here. My email is already locked at Bethesda forums. I can't register there with my MAIN email adress. They're so fucking sneaky... they hate us all. Especially me and PiP.

Dreddy, if we can't already smell you coming from a mile, we're already dead, buried and have no need to worry about it :D

It's not really like that. More like in the ways that throwing part would be merged with the melee, because using a knife, throwing a knife are partly in the same area. All the morons are just clanging to the idea that I want to use a grenade as a melee weapon...which is not true.

Or they could just delete throwing and also delete grenades. Which would suck. Last time I checked, you sometimes THROW the grenades.

haha, I'm just yankin' your chain, frissy. I just thought that was a pretty fuckin' funny thing to latch on to.

I get your point though and agree, to an extent, but in practice? I can wield a knife with fair enough proficiency, but ask me to throw it and I'm just going to bruise someone.

True, but would you be able to throw a knife without any proficiency in using a knife?

I'm good at knife throwing but using a grenade in close combat... I don't know. Sound incredibly korean to me.

I'm not saying you should, but using a grenade (not a live one!) as a hitting tool would work. A bad idea, because a knife or a baseballbat is better.

Still, I think that if you are good in throwing a knife you are also better in throwing a grenade (live or not). That's the point.

Yeah. Throwing a grenade is WAY easier. A knife has to spin and shit, you need lots of training so you can assess the distance etc etc etc...

A grenade is simply toss&boom.

Throwing a hand grenade is mainly dependent on strength, if you've tried it.

I know, but strength isn't everything. And yes, I've tried (also did the Duck and Cover :D)

Actualy, even as a corpse youd wana smell Dreddy coming, as he is prolly intending to molester your corpse.




As far as throwing goes, I say it needs to be used more.

Have a dartboard in a bar, you can make money (or have small local quests) based on hitting the dartboard from across the bar and such, and get in a fight if you miss and hit someone (all based on your throwing skill, not your ability to click the Xbox controller just right.........)



But yeah, that said, Bethesda's fourm is irrelvent until proven to be otherwise.

Luckily for me, Im used to using proxies and fake emails (got a handy firexox extension for those) to troll fourms, so I might always go back to test the limits of this fourm.

Also, I think the surface is a bigger factor than throwing technique or whatever, especially outdoors. Grenades can bounce pretty unpredictably. I remember one bouncing off a tree and killing myself. :giggle:

True, that's why they teach you to throw it in a high arc. So that it basically lands quite vertically, not horizontally.
