Not true, casue I use them all the time, and I'm a damn straight shot. I just think your upset because EA didn't provide you as an A.T. with any grenades.... damn! come to think of it, I've probably never seen you throw a grenade.... hmmmm?

In the last week I lost count of the times I was killed by friendly grenades just as I was about to recapture the flag.....and the sad part is.....whoever was tossing the grenades apparently was killed because in every instance the flag was turned the other direction. This made me and my squad have to spawn somewhere else and work back to the flag I wanted to defend.

Every one team kills accidently and I dont think anyone does it on purpose in the heat of battle. But I do think that many times we all tend to react instead of think about the results of our actions. All I am asking here is to stop, look and think before tossing the grenades. You may be hurting your team more than you are helping.

If you didnt already know this.....it is very easy to walk up to most flags that have turned neutral and shoot one, two or even three guys to save the flag. Capturing a flag puts the soldiers doing it in a very difficult to defend situation. I usually run right up to the flag and catch the soldier or soldiers looking the wrong way...especially if there is a UAV on top of the flag. And usually I am with my squad so if I do get killed....they are there with me and they either shoot the guy who shot me, revive me....or recapture the flag so I can respawn at the location I want.

Just something to think about

sounds like someone should visit PR

I agee with you BlueMaxox....I have been killed a number of times when there were two enemy present with me and someone from another squad chucks a nade and kills me and not the other guys. I am personnaly not very good with nades. I have killed many teammates because of my inaccuracy. But, I always check my mini map before I start chucking at a flag. Blue or green is a no go for the nade!

BlueMaxox, your concerns in regards to grenades are clearly justified and I have put much more though into the placement of my grenades since this post.

However, I do notice many soldiers who rarely or never use their grenades and that concerns me. I feel when you have a certain amount of tools to work with, then you must make sure to USE all of those tools as often as possible. Thats it, thats all we get....

I just want us to remember the times we got our Ass' Kicked because the enemy was spamming grenades the entire game.... Too many times to recount. If we are not using our grenades or are worried about using them, then how can we compete against grenade spammers effectively. You fight fire with fire (and water and sand and foam, etc).

So, lets make sure to use our grenades at all times, and lets remember the ass kicking we get when the enemy decides not only to use theirs, but to dominate with them.

I think it's a sad when we die in the game and don't even get a chance to either deploy our defenses or use or weapons (like grenades).

When an Engineer, I try to make sure that I at least deploy 3-4 of my land mines immediately(then I keep 1-2 with me at all times). Likewise with the sniper Kit, I at least am going to defiantely deploy 1 claymore, keeping 1 with me at all times (if possible, saving it for the Thejeep1).

Let's not become grenade spammers ourselves, but lets learn how to effectively eliminate them.

You may have not been thinking of me when posting, But I clearly remember doing it.

Bullets natural trajectory will always curve down due to gravity.

First I was honestly not calling anyone out.....and I can certainly tell you I have done my fair share of unintended team killing and it bugs the shit out of me everytime I do it. As I said in my original post, I don't think anyone does it intentionally. The purpose of my post was to just get the grenande throwers to think before they toss.

I certainly appreciate your honesty on the tks with grenades...but I wasn't calling you out. Hell most of the time I can't remember the guys that played with me during the time I am on. What I do remember is that those that play and hang with me I really appreciate cause it is hard to find people who like to play defense the way I do.

One other thing......I know I am not the best at anything when doing battle.....and if anyone wants to give me pointers to make me better.....I am all ears. What I do have is the heart to do anything it takes to win the game.

See you in my squad I hope smokenspliff!

Believe me I want to.....guess I just need to do it. Think I will down load PR tonight!

Me grenades are my worst enemy I toss them and they bounce off a wall right back onto my squad or I toss one into a swarm of enemies and the only person I kill is a teamate who charged straight into the middle of them moments after I throw the nade, how this happens I do not know that enemy so I try and limit my grenade tossing to when I am alone or with a disciplined squad, and yes I have been known to be the same squad member that charges straight into the middle of the enemy though usually just before the grenade is tossed.

My grenades are deady at taking out entire squads in PR. Sometimes you only 3 or 4 but they are something you do not want to encounter. Some games in the EA series have the grenade damage dumbed down to a small perimeter. Project Reality gives them the Full damage of what a grenade can do.

Stop by and check out the PR forums and download the Free mod that Ranked #2 in the world.

It is purely the most realistic battlefield on the earth in Games.

Project Reality is game you better take serious or you are going to have a lot time to think what you can do different to keep you out of the Respawn time and how to stay alive and to be more effective and usefull to your team.

Project Reality is #1 in my book.
