I had this idea, that if you're shot while preparing to throw a grenade (are holding down mouse button to increase the throwing distance), the grenade should fall from your hands right where you are standing, and explode, as it normally would after throwing it. As if the dying guy would have pulled the pin right before his death. It would be a nice surprise for whoever would be coming for your weapon right after your death... ;)

Be a neat little thing to have. But i dunno, it'd be a full feature or a check box option, i'm saying the devs would make it a check box, cause it would get a bit annoying after a while, and turning it off would be fun... then you turn it back on and enjoy the blood.

You pull the pin the moment the weapon is selected so it makes more sence that the grenade would explode after you are killed while holding it.

It would only be annoying if your the one smart enough to approach dead bodies with live grenades next to them

This is not something that could be exploited or unbalance the gameplay. Just avoid the dead body and you avoid the grenade.

Oh, i didn't realize that the pin is auto pulled upon taking it out.

If so, i'm sure some won't be happy about that.

Wait, or is it really?

I will have to go check myself before I comment any further

You know, this is already implemented.

Only the grenade will fly as if you threw it at whatever distance you had it set to throw.

Well there you go. :p

we must not have noticed because those grenades fly off the screen so fast.

Yeah, it is kinda hard to notice. You can easily see this though if you have the throw range set to automatic (don't hold in pri or alt fire to charge throw range) and then just deliberately get yourself killed. Can't remember if you have to release the lever first or not in order for it to work though.

I have gotten quite a few kills this way though. I haven't worked out a system to do this consistently yet, though. :P

this happens.. especially to BE.

i have a grenade prepared, he kills me.. then the grande drops.. and since he likes to inspect corpses, it always gets him :D

If i'm not being attacked by 5 other bots, i usually observe the carnage that i have wrought.

I know this sounds creepy but I am sort of a mad scientist when it comes to BW. When I kill somebody, I inspect their bodies, their muscle forms, their stumps, EVERYTHING. Then I take a random weapon and inspect the physics.

By the way, does shooting a dead body or slashing it cause any blood to come out? It would be nice to have it like that.

yup thats creepy....i do like the idea for having more blood when shooting a corpse and such though...

and on topic to the grenades, it seems the feature is already in place so the topic is moot

Unfortunately no.
