Subject: Why are bad players so good at throwing grenades?

Spam them enough and eventually you will throw good ones.

Not to mention they are overpowered.

The 343 forums suck. They're full of retarded kids and mods who got butthurt in the B.net forums for being told that they're bad.

Everybody else's grenades are more powerful than mine are.

Also, I can never Evade away from a grenade. It'll either follow me or make me register damage as if I hadn't Evaded. Same goes with the melee.

You have to Evade to the side. If you Evade forward, you'll end up hitting the frag mid-flight and it will bounce of your body toward your Evade's destination.


I'll evade backwards or to the side, and the grenade will follow me, and it doesn't seem to matter where'll the grenade will first bounce. I actually had a grenade hit me in the face, and then follow me backwards after I evaded backwards.

Goat was famous. Irie was infamous. Gh0st was FaMaS.

My stats in Halol 4

Typical Waypoint post.
no it's "its got to go" you wouldn't say the "it is got to go" would you?

I looked at this thread and I wondered why I made a topic like this.

Derp.

Real account.

Join me as we make new friends from different communities!

If you assign every letter of the alphabet a number, a is 1, b is 2, etc., and you take all of the values of the word "MATH", and add them, you get 42. So math is the meaning of life, the universe, and everything.

They're like good players with the DMR, they both depend on it so they get better with them to the point where they can't kill without them.

It seems to me that the standard of shooting has dropped a lot since Halo 3! I think people depend on their grenades now, people just tend to rush and throw.

I miss Halo. Maybe Halo 4 will change that.

Edit: Lol nope

One of the easier things to get kills with means more people can kill with it. That combined with the fact that it is all they seem to do at all ranges making them more experienced at it gives them a decent to good skill with grenade placement.

The real question is this: why are good players so bad at avoiding grenades?


Truth. If you're good, you'll be able to avoid them. I'm godawful and even I can tilt the left thumbstick a little backward to back out of the blast radius.


Wish you'd teach me the secret. I hold back, jump, and jetpack away from nades and still take my full shield and 2/3rds health damage.


See where the grenade is coming from? I know this sounds crazy, but run toward that path.

Chances are, if the grenade lands right next to you, it'll bounce a bit farther past you. If you run forward, you'll put the most amount of distance between yourself and the explosion.

If that doesn't work, then maybe I'm just lucky as all hell.
This never happens, once a reachtard throws a grenade,it'll stop under your feet and explode instantly, it wont roll, it wont bounce, it'll just stick there than blow up.

Happens to me quite often.

Stop arguing over imaginary -blam!-. May as well argue over Santa Claus. There will never be proof that there is/was a god - and before people start saying "HERP DERP PROVE THERE WASN'T ONE ROFLOLOL" well, you are the people who made it up in the first place so we know there isn't one
What created the big bang then? A coalition of genetically modified TR-909s with extra distortion?

It doesn't require huge amounts of skill to use a WMD.

That has happened to me so many times. It seems more like the frag sticks to you instead of following. Either way its absolutely retarded.
