Sometimes, I dream about cheese.

you're all aware how the more needles fired into an enemy, the stronger the explosion yes?

lets say i was stand 10 meters away from a grunt and fired 16 needles into him, BOOM

now lets say i was standing 10 meters away from a grunt while Super PolarBear was standing 10 meters away from both of us.
we are all 10 meters away from each other forming an equilateral triangle.
me and Super PolarBear simultaneously fire 8 needles into the grunt, will it matter if half the needles were fired by a different player? resulting in 2 simultaneous explosions which aren't as powerful as me firing 16 solo

or will it not matter? resulting in the same explosion caused by firing 16 needles solo

have i confused anyone? my apologies if i have, what i'm trying to find out is difficult for me to explain through typing

That... and the fact that I'm a little on the short side so most of your needles would be missing.

Never tried it but should be easy enough to run a test.
I'd do it but I lent my copy of CEA to my brother last week.
