Xonotic Forums

Maybe there could be some grenades (you could throw [not g-Launcher]) in xonotic!
They would be fun on 1on1 matches but also on normal gameplay!

I thought of the following types:
- High Explosive (highter damage than the g-launcher ones)
- Shield (bulletproof bulb)
- FlashBANG
- Mines
- Implosion Grenade (hook secondary)

What do you think?

I think having the grenade launcher and this throwing of grenades would be a bit to much, and that would require another animation.
I do kind of like some of your types, though the primary is already sticky.

Keep the ideas coming

Definitely not throwing. Special ammo types for mortar, sure.

Hand grenades are just too slow for fast packed gameplay IMO.

Mortar secondary is like grenades.. or not?
If I want to have 'flashbang' grenades and stuff like that I play e.g. Battlefield but not Xonotic. That just does not fit.

You cearly haven't played Quake2 in multiplayer

No, don't over complicate the game.

after thinking a bit () I can only say that you're right! Grenades don't fit in Xonotic!
sorry for spamming the forum with that idea!
