Another option is to use the commo rose as an aiming indicator.

i do not wanna ask too much, but could you re-animate the arm and put the forefinger or the thumb to aim?

I try this yesterday and did not work. Its like the grenade has a lot of "bullet drop". The Red Orchestra "hand aiming" is great, It really works. You should make something like this:

At least i use it in the Red Orchestra OstFront and it was very usefull.

It's not that tough to do bud. You hold rmb down and aim with your thumb of the hand that is up. But everyone makes mistakes. Just keep on trying.

At least you didn't tk 10 teammates. Lol

I usually use the finger rather than where the cross is, I used to be ninja at getting grenades into the bunkers in Mestia but I have lost the skill a bit.

From all the comments here I'm actually quite happy with how we have it in PR

this is just something you have to practice, and be sensible when throwing explosives around, if it's a small orrifice then get right up to it before throwing

I like to wait for an opportunity to fall back during infantry combat, and when I know I'm being advanced upon; simply right click to drop the grenade and run away.

Aim? A grenade? Hahahahaha.

On Yamalia, our trench got "raided" and I stayed behind, prone and sneaked behind the enemy, knifed one, right click dropped a good ol M67, and took 4 more guys with me.

Oh, and if the grenade drop is a bit much, sacrifice overall distance from target for sheer velocity.
I don't remember how but some combination of keys will allow you to pull the pin, run and jump during the throw!

Xalt knows what I'm about.

I would even like to see a small amount of random deviation when throwing grenades.
Because its just not realistic that you can pinpoint a small window in the second floor every time, and right now you CAN do it ingame, if you have enough practice.
There should always be a certain risk in trying to throw grenades through small holes, windows and stuff.

I think it's realistic if you practice IRL, so why not if you practice in PR? People consistently throw much more accurately and with more power IRL that people throw grenades in PR - it's not like you throw in PR like a freak baseball pitcher or professional cricketer. Well, maybe you throw like an English cricketer at the Ashes...

I had same problems when I started to play but after a couple of throws you get use to it and its normal.
