Whats with the new breed of lamers???

The suicide grenaders seem to be everywhere now. Where did these losers come from? It seems to be the new method of deriving enjoyment by ruining the game for others. Spearhead just makes the matter worse. Now, instead of being able to shoot these guys and run away before the nade goes off, the short fuse catches you every time. These little girls can just pull the pin and chase you until the grenade goes off. WTF!!!!!

EA owes us a patch. At least something to make SH only as buggy as MOHAA. What horseshit! mad:

When this happens you should follow Monty Pythons example

Another case of EA fucking up again.
the grenade shouldn't start cooking right away.
and what's with teh not being able to open doors with a nade in your hand, did Barnes think it's so important to hold the pin in the other hand???

actually running away is a bad idea, best to shoot while running backwards or something.

nades can probably have the fuse removed by removing the "fuse" line in the tik, but since they seemingly hard-coded the rifle whip i'm not so sure.

Bazooka_Joe · 12-03-2002, 07:51 PM

Stryker, as for the door thing, I hate that too, but technically, it's retarded. OK, let's analyze.

1) The grenade is primed and ready to throw, meaning that you have your hand on the nade, and the other on the fuse. This makes it not possible to open doors. True

2) The nade is primed and is cooking off in your hand. This means the pin is pulled, and you should only need one free hand to throw the nade. This should allow you to open doors.

EA, Pick and choose, man! One or the other!

Mr_nStuff · 12-03-2002, 07:53 PM

The nades are fine. They should fix the door thing..

And who cares if someone suicides. It's actually a smart thing to do if you are stuck with the nade already pulled and some spray and pray smg'er only goes to realism servers comes running up.

Also.. If someone wants to come on and just do suicide-bomb rampage runs. Who cares.. That gives you one more thing to practice avoiding. It's not like they are cheating. And it's not like everyone plays your stile.

How boring would that be anyways.

12-03-2002, 08:00 PM

who cares? the people who are actually trying to play instead of screwing around like a bunch of kids.

Mr_nStuff · 12-04-2002, 02:05 AM

blah... It's a game bro.. And again.. It's not like they are cheating. Hell.. they aren't even spamming.

You all take the game alittle to seriously. Online games will always have clowns.

Lets recap...
-- Constantly repeating a voice taunt the duration of your stay. <-- Lamer
-- Suicide Bomber.. Watch out for that guy! <-- Clown
-- Standing in a doorway to block team traffic flow.. <-- Lamer
-- Leaning while running. Doesn't he look silly? <-- Clown
-- Constantly dishing out snide remarks after death.. <-- Crybaby.

just because it's a game means we aren't allowed to have a good time?

Druid · 12-04-2002, 02:10 AM

I would have to agree with Mr_nStuff

Mr_nStuff · 12-04-2002, 02:12 AM

Well it's a public game.. You should have a good time.. But that will be increasingly difficult if you expect the other 19 strangers playing to act exactly like you.

He got quite owned. I just finished playing a couple matches where people were doing that. So annoying.

Yeah.. Sad.. I thought they would be more like America's Army grenades.. I love it so much, I'm going to explain it anyways..

1) Equip the grenade with the proper button.
2) Press AltFire to position yourself for an underhand or overhand throw.
3) Press and hold Fire to cock-back your arm for the throw, aiming with your other hand.
4) Press AltFire to pull the pin and cook the grenade before releasing if desired.

Oh well.. America's Army owns MOH.. Not sure what happened with the game. it's not very popular..
