"wiffing" a nade

R4MM3R

have a 5% chance that you drop a nade on your feet when you try to trow it.
ads an element of surprise to the game.


i mean its not as silly as an AK47-custom

Why would you want to have this? You get punishment for no reason.

In this game people with skills should win but with this suggestions they might lose for no reason. Well yes 5% are really low but not impossible.

Do I even have to say what's wrong with this idea? -1

ssuiless

so if you throw a nade you have 5% chance a nade gonna be at your feet?
how would that be fair and how do it even make sense?
if it was added then people could be scared to throw it because a nade could be at their feet when they throw it.

5% are really low but I am still against the idea. A game should be about skills not luck.

EIKOOC

The walls and corners does this already.

Should be 90% chance but that's just me

It's not necessarily a bad idea. I mean, granted the chance is low and grenades in Cross Fire do relatively no damage whatsoever, it stops all the "Grenade spammery" in Egypt TD.

Perhaps if the grenades were a 5% dud it'd be better

A better way to stop the grenade spam in Egypt is to have an option to disable all grenades for the host. You can do it with flash/smoke grenades, so why not explosive grenades?

This idea will help with the grenade spam a little bit but other than that, it's pretty much pointless.

I'd still rather have that 5% chance of having a dud as the grenade instead of simply the "All or nothing" type of use.

Though it's not a very large chance that the grenade will explode, it thoroughly reduces the amount of explosions in a TDM match that has 12 minutes and 0 second respawn (which happens to be a LOT of rooms)

If you really just want to stop the grenades in Egypt then it would be better to make it optional like the flash and smoke. It's not only more effective then this suggestion but also more fair.

Proportionately, keep in mind it only reduces 5% of grenades, which isn't a lot at all.

It does however mean a lot more team kills, both nading yourself or your teammate. If you don't notice it's a dud and you stop moving at low HP, you could easily kill yourself without noticing. If you do notice it, then a teammate who doesn't runs along and gets himself killed, and he rages and kicks you.

And especially since it's 12 minutes, there will be a lot of team nading. The amount of grenades thrown in a 12 minute no respawn game is tremendous, and even a 5% chance would result in tons of nades dropped, and in turn, tons of team kills, meaning unfair and unnecessary punishment (another team kill added to your profile). Even though it is not too big of a punishment, it ruins the image for anyone that is checking your profile.
