Make the nades smaller.

[Fixious]

Seriously, it looks like I'm throwing a god damn basketball. Make 'em smaller, but keep the current amount of damage and radius.

 

[Immanent]

Yes please do, except the freaking hitbox on them are freaking huge. -_- they set off clusters from atleast 2+ meters away...

DON'T YOU SEE THE RESEMBLANCE!

And of course it can be a sci-fi grenade.
So besides changing how big it is, it could do with a different look.

Maybe they put the nade inside the basketball!

Though the damage dealt drops off by the distance, clusters should have a minimun damage limit to set them off.

I don't see why handgrenades should be smaller, you're tossing something that explodes with a large area of effect in MA, decent side compared to the nades on the GrenadeLauncher.

Edit:
"area of effect" ._.

Guys, stop using the term hitbox if you're actually talking about area of effect or explosion radius.

[...] clusters should have a minimun damage limit to set them off. [...]

They do.

I agree with the general idea of this thread by the way, and want to add, that they've been even larger than they are now.

I meant hitbox, but forgot to elaborate. They are so freaking big, that you actually have to wait a couple of seconds after throwing the nade and shooting the GL, otherwise it will just blow up in your face. Or you could just totally alter your aim so you miss it.

See the devs do listen!

He's not a dev.

 

[Gheist]

He's not a dev.

Which isn't what he was saying. The grenades have been even bigger before they've hit public testing, and the developers toned down their size due to initial feedback.

 

[Volt Cruelerz]

I would be fine with a graphical reduction in size, but I like the hitboxes as is.

How about we make the hitboxes smaller too? I keep killing myself because I'm throwing a grenade, Moving away from it and hitting it with a rocket.

[stefygraff]

Oi, i approve fixilious! Those green ballz are very ugly, keep the concept but make it a bit little and maybe yellow or red but not green

 

[Gheist]

[...] Those green ballz are very ugly [...]

Whuoat? The only thing green is the mortar projectile. The handgrenades are blue or red (boost/frag).

 

[anak]

the thing about size is, things look bigger when they're closer to you.

their size seems fine to me once they're as far away from me as the grenades usually are.

You just described Hand Nade Jump.. I fail to see the problem here?

 

[Armageddon]

This is one thing i didn't complain at all about lol.

I like the AOE on them, I'm the type of player that only uses Max Throw so for me they work really well. A lot can change between me and my target at the max throw distance, the AOE helps.

yep, and i was talking about them... its ugly! I call it the Vomit grenade. A red or yellow color for those grenades would be much better

Then you're the only one. This thread is about the size of the handgrenades.
