Handgrende does kill me before it explodes

Post by ELVIS(KOHOKPAD) »

Hello
I think it is a bug or error? when you going to throw hand grenade and pull off safety pin? if you been killed at that moment grenade does not explode!?!?!?! my question is WHY??? safety pin is out? grenade must explode anyway but it is not happened? grenade just disappear!!! by magic way??? LOL it is not really realistic!!)))

This is not a bug, it is a BF2 issue.

Basically BF2 grenades have no "cooking off" feature as in CoD for example meaning that when you appear to pull the pin the grenade is not ever going to go off (you could hold it forever on RMB and it would never go off). The grenade becomes a grenade when it is actually thrown (it becomes a live projectile when actually released) so only then will it go off.

It is not something that can be fixed im afraid, blame EA.

Technically though, you only pull the safety pin in the animation. Your guy doesn't release the firing lever until the grenade is thrown. So basically, the animation is totally correct.

But even you throw it? and in that moment until grenade flying to target if you been killed, grenade not explode. so why?

That is a bug, yes.

The fact that it does not go off in your hand is entirely realistic, that's what the safety lever is for.

What the OP describes is the grenade disappearing when the thrower has been killed.

(You pull the pin, hold the grenade in your hand, get shot - but it doesn't fall down and explode, it just disappears)

That's a BF2 issue btw, so I doubt it can be fixed.

Happens to me time to time. If I get show at the very moment I'm throwing the nade, it won't explode, I will just disappear.

Theres a another funny bug there. If you get shot while throwing grenade but never get it off your hand, if someone then takes your kit and chooses the grenade the nade "launches" itself immediately, bug has cost lot of TKs. :D
