Jonesy... Yeh, I got home last night after a piss-up and was fairly drunk.

I felt I needed to put my point across as clearly as I could, heh.

You do agree with me, though

Gunny, I'd not class those players as kids as a rule, although I know what you mean.

You do prove in what you said that those who do play that way don't tend to do very well, though, so does it really matter?

You mention kills and deaths so I assume you're refering to Deathmatch or TeamDM. There isn't any objective but to kill as many as you can in those, so random grenade lobbing is perfectly justified there, imo.

This thread really refers to objective mostly and how some people only use grenades to get easy kills.

I'm not sure that I'd enjoy this game as much if all we had was rifles, smgs and mgs and nothing else. That'd be so limiting and there'd be a lot less variety to keep us going for long.

Some people's opinion is that grenades should be used this way, others think they should be used another.

The thing about opinions they are neither right or wrong. They're just opinions.

In real life most soldiers had rigorous training (or at least as much as they could fit in) before they got sent into battle. They would be fully aware that randomly chucking their grenades would probably just waste them. They would be fully aware of tactics and how working as a team will get results.

But this is a game. It may be lame in your eyes to use grenades first then run in blindly to meet death, but for the person who does it it might just be considered fun.

You really wouldn't want to play a game that perfectly modelled war down to the very finest detail.

It'd be a shite game then.

Whether someone uses grenades as a team effort or not, whether someone uses a shotgun, smg, mg, sniper, rocket or pistol, they all have their right to do whatever they enjoy.

Until someone dies and you become King you don't really have any right to say they don't.

You're entitled to your opinion though.

My opinion is if I am not enjoying a game because of something someone else does I either stop playing or make it as hard as possible for them to do it.

I have to bite my typing tongue a lot. I get stressed when someone who is crap gets loads of kills from using 'cheap' tactics.

I do keep playing though, and I presume you all do too. The better moments always outweight the worse, especially if you're a good player.
