BF2S Forums Because of Complaining about Nade fests...

Can anyone with some real-life experience tell us how many grenades a soldier (could) carry?

How about a voting option of leaving them alone?

Personnaly I think they should be left alone, an M61 frag grenade weighs about 16 ounces (or 1lb) and I think has an effetive killing range of about 4m. That's about the same full killing radius of a nade in BF2, so they got that right, when I was out on DofE I was carrying a 50lb pack, I think a fully grown man who soldiers for a living can carry 4lb's of grenades along with his full pack of ammo/rations/weapon.

The nades in Bf2 are as good as they should be and we can carry as many as we should be able to, for the love of god please stop trying to nerf this game.

It wouldn't make sense if the Ammo bag can't refil Grenades when it can refill ANY OTHER ammo that's in the game.

Like Tank shells, Anti Tank missle, Choppers minigun ammo, Choppers Missle, Airplanes missle and normal minigun ammo, APC bullets, C4 and you name it.
If they should take away one everything else should go away.

Just let the damn grenades be alone and don't head into the main grenade spam areas. Take a way around it because when everyone is focusing on one spot you can easily get past them on another spot.

Moral of my post: It's the abusers ruining the game, not the "whiners" complaining about the abuse.

I'm sure downpours of grenades that resemble arty weren't part of the original gameplan.

I agree though. Nades are fine. Just the abuse of them isn't.

Your story goes wrong at #4

Here's how it goes for nades.

I think the solution is to convert all the guns in BF2 to squirtguns, and all the grenades into water balloons.

And support players carry several large buckets full of water, commanders can drop mobile hoses so people can refill

ROFL

That would be an interesting mod

Wouldn't make sense? A lot of things in BF2 don't make sense but are still fun.

In all seriousness though, what's more fun: gun fights or nade fests? I think we all know the answer to that one. 1 nade per ammo pack is a rational idea. Why does change scare you all so much?

Yea but it certainly wouldn't make sense if the Ammo bag won't be able to fill up full ammo on Grenades but can refill 5-6 Rockets in an instant if you throw it out. Beside it would just give the Support Kit more points when people pick them up to.

Only getting 1+ grenade from a bag means you need to cast out several fill their grenade stock. which means 4-5 + extra ammo point.

i hate grenades with a passion, but im not complaining to get them nerfed. Im not going to dummy down to the level of "whiny bitch at totalbf2.com"

After the bullshit grenades of CS and CS:S I love how deadly BF2s grenades are.  Grenades are fucking lovely.  They are very lethal in real life, and it would not be unreasonable for a soldier to have at least 3-4 grenades on his person at the onset of an operation.  They are used to clear rooms, flush people out, and just maim and kill in general.  Period. 

More whining from people who suck at BF2.  This is not CS.  Play smart, and you will live:  you will spot claymores, you will base more of your gameplay on strategic positioning and less on your supposedly l337 aim (which probably sucks anyway), and you will make the capture of strategic locations priority number one.

I have no problem with the grenade fests on IO Karkand, or any other map.  In fact, I love it.  I played a full 64 man karkand last night as MEC and went 56/7...the unrelenting hail of shrapnel coming at the hotel never kept me from getting kills or medics from reviving my ass.  In short, play smarter, bitch less...no more nerfing anything as far as I'm concerned. (Except claymores...we should be able to blow them up if we can spot one before it blows...they changed that with a patch though, so reverting isn't really a nerfing.)
