Commiting Suicide with Nades
« on: September 18, 2007, 09:15:26 PM »
Hey,

 I am having a serious problem with this committing suicide problem with paint nades.
This is becoming very annoying and it needs to be removed by my opinion.
or
Instead of a suicide, how about if you hit yourself with the paint nade you loss 100 paint balls and if you have less then 100 you go down to 10 paint balls.

I really would like something new instead of a suicide.

Helps the other team in your case :P Timed nades don't kill you anyways, just primed ones

No, i know that.
But what im talking about when you toss a normal nade and it bounces back at you and explodes under you and it kills you.
I dont want that mistake to happen anymore.
and i if it didnt help i would like it better.

What's the logic behind that?

dropgren if you must get rid of them.

OR

Throw genades more carefully.

Actually, now that I think about it, I seem to have a similar problem: other teams' paintballs keep killing me. This is becoming quite an issue. Could some kind of paint-shield be implemented so that these pesky balls stop eliminating me? Ruins the game, in my opinion.

You can't suicide bomb with primed nades.

If it wasn't in there you would have newbdininjas throwing them around like tossed salad and such, especially if the admins decided to put the # of nades way up there. And from the main forum page the first part of this thread title is very scary, I was a bit worried about what would be in here.

Isn't there a way to turn it off, anyway? If not, an option for that might be a good fix, then your next step is annoying admins so they will change it.

Well i still say having it reduce your paint balls instead of a suicide would be a much greater part of the game because im tired of committing suicide when its not the action im trying to accomplish.

Please think about this Jitspoe, i think this would be a great idea for the game in the next build.

I frequently pjack in the middle of priming a nade, and I end up killing myself.  I think the suicide should be taken off as well.

It's also annoying when right after you throw a nade, a teammate just jumps right in front of you, hits the nade, and you get killed on the bounce-back. So another option is to make it so that nades won't explode upon impact with a teammate.

and impact nades. i do believe in scenario play even if you hit yourself with a paint grenade you are eliminated. i think thats how it goes. i think its any kinda of paint and you are out. but not too sure. correct me if i am wrong.

Grenade suicides are the only thing that keeps newbies and Europeans from grenade rushing every round.  I think grenade ffire should be turned on as well.  I would also like to see the grenade defaults changed from 2 paint 1 smoke to 1 paint 3 smoke.  Smoke grenades can be very strategic, but not so much when people throw the only one just to pick up that last paint grenade.

what has does fact a player is european have to do with them being compelled to grenade rush every round?

I think the implementation as it is is fine, Eiii said it perfectly imo.

Nobody. Kills themselves more with nades than me. I average at least 3 suicides per match.

LoL
I have noticed, so this is another reasons why I would like an alternate action instead of a suicide.
