nade bug

[(TM)KillJoy]

I'll tell you what really bugs me, (even though no one asked) ...

I'll be playing along, and want to toss a nade, and then when I'm holding the button down to toss it, it appears to just sit there, then after a few seconds, I see it flying thru the air, and I never had any control of how far it goes. Sometimes it doesnt even go anywhere, and falls straight to my feet. When that happens, I can expect a teamkill, or have to run like heck to get out of the way. Sometimes they throw fine, but I never know when that will be. This happen to everyone? ...is it lag? ...anyway to avoid it?

Re: nade bug

Left mouse throws full strength, right mouse lets you control power, if you just click the right it will fall right to your feet, you gotta hold the right mouse long enough to throw it at full power.

Re: nade bug

Didnt know that at all. Is there any reason you would care to do that rather than just learning how to "aim" with the left mouse botton only?

Re: nade bug

The left mouse button way is far, far better. Only use the right mouse if you need to throw it close range, like dropping it. Even then, you can just left mouse and aim so it bounces off the ground.

Re: nade bug

it is lag, sometimes when i get it i see two get thrown (only 1 explodes). And right click nade is dam useful, left is useful most of the time but right is much better for placing it.

it is not far, far better unless you are a nade spammer

the best way to use nades is to prime them with right-click, this way you could run around, crouch, prone, etc and then release the nade even more quickly than left click when you need it

you can also lob them over ledges or onto rooftops with right click without just chunking the thing way over or past what you're trying to hit

or you can right click without holding to drop a nade if someone is chasing you on foot
