i believe it should have grenades, but shouldn't start off with them, just to keep it safe. frags only, just to keep it human.

No. Grenades kill in one hit in swat.
Not fun.

that's why you shouldn't start off with them. they can help, i find myself usually at the mercy of two to three people at a time, and can't even the playing field with a good ol' explosive. the LAN parties i go to, or host in some occasions, play this variant of SWAT all the time. It works okay.

ill do it in both ways...

yes, if you wanna be a noob throwing gnads and kill in 1 hit, too easy. less ppl playing

no,if you dont wanna die fast, keep same


i chose no bc i hate gnades on swat and i played it 2 times in a row and i die soo fast when im in middle killing 33-4 guys and the other teammates throw gnades and kill me it makes me mad (custom game)

that's my point, everyone dies to fast. 1 vs 3 in a room is no contest, if the one were to throw a grenade, he/she would probably still die from the inevitable shots fired upon them, but there's that chance that those bastards are gonna die with him/her.

yeah but wouldnt you get mad if all they did was just throw gnades and you walk in one...you will have to many death loss...and if your hiding and someone just throws a gnade and your dead...im a camper and spawn killer i dont like that...im not trying to bring you down or anything i know it sounds like i am...it would kick butt to have gnades but i mean it would have alot of ppl dieing and it would be heck haha

Why? Camping is strategy. If your doing swat on Ascension would you stay in a tower or run around in the bowl like an idiot?

Having grenades on swat could be pretty fun. But it does get annoying when youre trying to kill people and someone just throws a grenade and kills everyone. If you serious about playing swat, dont use grenades and if not serious, add rocket lauchers for all I care.

I played a rumble pit swat game with nades.... it was WAY to easy. I went 25kills 6deaths on desolation

no because in regular swat you can die in one hit from a grenade, in swat it wouldnt be fair or fun -.-

SWAT with grenades would be even worse than the way it is now... it's the most pointless playlist ever.

you still die from one shot in the head. and on another note from a guy or girl earlier. if run in the bowl on ascension like an idiot, you deserve to be shot, i run from area to area systematically. the map layout is vaguely triangular, i run around the map killing this, that and the other, not hiding in a dark corner.

besides, grenades make everything interesting. maybe you guys don't through yourselves into the fray of battle, but i do. usually because i need to make the fight shift towards my team's goals. once in while, you gotta take a hit for your team to achieve a win.

Stay still... It's for science.

I like to have grenades in SWAT. For those who have bad reaction time/aim could join in the fun with their incredible arms. They can still contribute to the game. It isn't as easy as this sounds either. Throwing grenades isn't all you would do. Throw one thoughtlessly and kaboom you are -1 and considered a team killer. So I believe it should.

Never eat yellow snow, unless of course, you spilled your Mt. Dew!

I am fine with things staying the same but if nades were to be added you should just get one to start and none on the map.
Also, this really should be in optimatch playlist forum.

Swat is a one hit kill anyways..... So Grenades would be just as useful. I Don't get why you guys wouldn't like them.

I see where you're coming from, but i dont agree with it. SWAT is already challenging enough without shields and motion sensors. Also, as long as you have fast reflexes and good accuracy, you can pretty much be the king of swat.

LC out

We have custom matches with Swat and grenades all the time. It's a fun variant on SWAT. Main reason I like it is that some folks we play with aren't gamers so it gives them another avenue of attack vs spending all their time backflipping and for those that are good with nades, it's a blast (yeah, poor pun, but couldn't help it).

I wouldn't want SWAT with grenades on matchmade only custom matches.

I say no 'cuz I played an 8vs8 SWAT LAN game (which was awesome btw) b4 and we tryed it w/ grenades onec and it was kinda' nice to get 3 and 4 kills at a time but it sucked to get killed the moment you spawned 1/2 the time and it just didn't have the same feel to the game.
We also tryed it 4vs4 just 2 c if it was 'cuz we had a lot of people.... and the same thing happend that I explaned above
But it is fun from time 2 time
