why couldn't they just get rid of grenades? it worked well from team fortress 2 Because there are grenades in war. What they should have done is make it so Scavenger doesn't refill your grenades, and with One Man Army, you can't switch back to the same class and refill your grenades. |

I'm gonna go ahead and go on a limb and say that there has never been a war in which people just randomly toss grenades all over the place hoping to kill someone.  |

I'm sure at times WWI felt like that. |

Battlefield is really against grenade spam.
See?

It adds a significant part of strategy to MW2. But I will say people pulling the pin and then having the grenade roll somewhere (which is doable outside of the Martyrdom deathstreak) gets on my nerves, not to mention the fact it can be done with Semtex as well which doesn't even begin it's countdown until it's out of your hand and should stick right to the ground but doesn't.
And then the "noobtubers" wouldn't be so bad if it had some sequence where they had to ready the gun and launch it ala the rocket launchers/thumper grenade launcher. The fact they can just shoot that off as quick as you could a simple handgun is lame.

It's attached to below the barrel of the rifle and has a normal trigger design just like a rifle...just gotta aim up and pull the trigger. |

In real life now way in hell could hit anything that well by hip firing it. That is why I prefer BF:BC2 more. No knife lunge and hardly anyone uses 40mm's, usually only for breaching walls (at least I do). |

I've got Modern Warfare 2 and Battlefield Bad Company 2 and I honestly prefer MW. I really haven't spent a whole lot of time with Battlefield though.

I used to be an ace at getting double and triple kills with grenades.
And now that I only have one, I prefer to stick people with my semtec.

I mean just look at this: Well this and hopefully it doesn't take 3 bullets to kill you in BC2. Man, that free weekend really left me sour. |

Lag compensation has always been pretty awful in COD games. Honestly, you should invest in BC2 not because COD pisses you off at times, but because it is head and shoulders the better game, without question. In order to do truly well (other than idly sniping or sitting around and reviving everyone) you must play as a team. It greatly increases the fun you have while playing. |

The fact they can just shoot that off as quick as you could a simple handgun is lame. The only strategy there is to be had with the grenade is timing/aiming correctly or even aiming the grenade at un-exploded cars so they go boom when the grenade goes boom. And honestly, how many people do either of those? Nearly everyone just aims up at the sky and chucks their grenades hoping it kills something, and normally....it does.... |

I can't start a game on Afghan without someone grenading one of the spawns.
I'm more annoyed by the spawn killing in MW2. I've been in a few games where I've died 5 or 6 times in a row without taking a single step (I don't mean "I walked 5 steps and died"....I mean, I literally didn't even pull my gun out).
The game is still oddly addicting.

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare had a LOT of people just tossing grenades at the very beginning of the game as soon as you spawned. Once you had the trajectory down, a map like the Ship level in that game was going to be grenaded like crazy. Also, from what I read, COD4 was the first game where frag grenades were actually implemented, so maybe that could be why it's a pretty hit or miss thing. |
