Often I'm behind a wall where I know there must be enemies on the other side, but I can't throw a grenade across - since the only options I have are to either throw full strength at a steep angle, or to dump the grenade at my feet.

How about a little meter that charges quickly when you press and hold right mouse button, allowing you to vary the strength of the resulting throw?


(I hope this has not been raised before, at least I couldn't find it on the list of previous suggestions)

you do understand what your asking is already in vbf2 & bf2: PR right?

Hold down right click the longer you hold it the farther you throw it so just right click count to 2 and throw it over the wall if you just click it it will drop at your feet...

I think right click reaches full strenght to quickly...

but then again: Hardcoded right?

No, not at all. It just takes practice, since there's no longer a bar telling you how hard you'll throw. Once you get the hang of it you'll start to be able to throw better. But lengthening/shortening the time till your throw is maxed is not hardcoded in the very least.

Eh, I use my 1337 counterstrike skills. If there's a wall, then there is usually a building next to it.

I just bounce the nade off the building, over the wall and next to my enemies.

It works about 80% of the time.

lol its already in game just hold right mouse button. but it does charge up kind of fast

Thanks for the answers. It should go into the manual.

Would it be too much to ask for that little bar back, showing throwing strength?

In real life you would have a very good idea how hard you were going to throw the grenade, so a filling bar would hardly be unrealistic..

yea if you right click your guy just drops it if you hold it for a second it goes a bit further.
