grenades

[Cover is a friend]

If a enemy arms a grenade and throws it, will you be able to shoot the grenade in mid-air or while its still in a locusts hand?

[Zoso Fan]

Good question! Maybe, but i think it might be too hard to pull off... :)

[soda]

would be very cool but also very hard, it would be like trying to hit a bee in mid air with a dart!

i remember in css, i saw this mayb 2 times, a guy would throw a grenaded up and then shoot it wit a shotgun and would make it go flying, it might b capable in GoW but it isn't like, OMG I'M AIMING FOR HIS GRENADE SO IT FLIES AWAY! its more of a luck shot lol

I think they did it in Halo 2 but the physics engine wasn't strong enough to fully implement it if they did. I think that Epic did add it though seeing as how both them and us pride this game on real-time, super-realistic gameplay. I'm quessing that since everything is so dynamic with the Unreal 3 engine, grenade shooting shouldn't be a problem.

And yes, like wookie said, it would be a complete luck shot.

I could be possible if it was a high lob and you had a sniper rifle. Imagine sniping a smoke grenade on a persons belt, blinding them, cool.:cool:

[Uday23]

i talked about this with either Rexx or Rigor, i forgot, maybe but it would be too hard to do, and would rarely ever happen

[0v3rd0$3]

very cool idea but it should only be done with shotguns,world war 1 style :) -OD

Actually it would be more like trying to shoot a grenade with a bullet...:D

[XxinfurnoxX]

if you can shoot it on thare belt it wouldnt be that hard if you had a sniper rifel all you need to do is see it and pull the triger most ppl hezitate for a split sec and the chance is lost all you need to do is get with some freinds and try over and over and over......ect.

[imusthaveGoW]

it would be 2 easy tokill people if you could shoot the nades on their belt becaue the fire is so rapid that 70% of the times that your trying to kill someone it will be because of their nades xploding ontheir belts

[pWnyoUNOw]

that would be cool but ithink it would be something people would just try to get good at shoooting nades so they get one hit killls. it would be like the doual heavy cannons in chromehounds and ruin it

[Locust Bait]

I doubt that would happend, you need to know the exact location of the nade, and like someone else said, people hesitate a split second. That ones even more of a luck shot. I will just keep with head shots, unless I'm surrounded and the enemy are tightly packed. BOOM! 10 kills.

[imusthaveGoW]

the game looks good as it is so htey should just keep it like this

halo 2 had you blow up a frag if it was shot, but not plasmas, any way i believe ages ago there was some post about how a grenade can be manipulated with bullets, like pushed off course if you will, but i couldnt tell you where. this was also such a long time ago, and i believe it was nothing but speculation, even at the time :)

[Hornet]

Not nececcarily. If htey are swinging it around, then fire your machine gun at the grenade while it is like that. BOOM! Well, that is if it owuld blow up while still in their hands. If not, then you have a very fast firing but pretty accurate machine gun. USE IT!
It all depends on how the physics engine will impliment this. If it actually works well where if I shoot a stream of bullets with the correct leading then it should blow up, then it will be awesome. In halo 2 this was implemented poorly by hte physics engine, making it near impossible to do it with the lag or even the fact that it would always work anyway.
I would love to see this.

It would be cool. But if you could shoot them on a player's belt making it explode...it should only be done with a snipre rifle. Otherwise grenades would be blowing people apart constantly netting multiple grenade kills.

[L337 Lemming]

well i dont like the idea of blowing up grenades on a belt, it would tarnish the experience, for me anyway. i think if they have been chucked and are in the air, or when they land, like just before they go BOOM! then thats cool, but otherwise there would be 1 little person just aiming for the belt all the time

[Soul]

Shooting a grenade would be fun, but what if you could pick it up and throw it back at them? Although, the time would be really short so you'd have to be quick.
If your not quick enough it explodes in your hand. :D

[Magnum 50 Cal]

Actually it would be more like trying to shoot a grenade with a bullet...:DOr you may be able to shoot at some one while thay are targeting and the grenade falls down and still explodes. Or could pick it up after some one has thrown it?

i cant wait for this game
