Give them their grenades back. There are three reasons why this makes sense.

1. They are facing mobs of zombies. Grenades are area-affect, crowd control type weapons. Makes sense that they would have them

2. The Marines do the grenade motion all the time. its built into their AI, and they often waste time trying to throw nonexistant grenades. Giving em grenades would fix this problem

3. Giving them grenades would stop the zombie camping Often times, zombies gang up on a Marine and kill him, stopping his ability to respawn. if you gave them grenades, they could thin out the mobs of zombies so spawn camping wouldn't be so much of a problem.

Hope you agree, and any other ideas would be welcome

I was referring to bb_carnage, where the zombies rape everyone

i never get raped... play it smart and u wont get infected

How can you play it smart when 5 playerzombies are camping and normal zombies are raping everything what moves.

by killing them.

Gd idea, the dev team was thinking of implementing explosives... i think it would be better for the rines to have them. Also i got infected 16 times on carnage rofl. I don't normaly get infected once ....

I think it's a cool idea, but it does have some flaws, like making things too easy. I don't think the marines should get it for that reason. Though maybe you could have some type of rare explosive (like a, oh I don't know..... gernade) with a very very slow respawn. That way you would have a chance every *great* so often to clear out a billion zombies that are keeping players from an area.

I remember being pinned on top of the car out with low ammo in BB_Carnage while half the zombies in the map totally infected everyone at the respawn point. Then the infected playes came to screw me over while I fired the few shots I had left at them, just so we all could respawn into the same problem. That could have been prevented.

If you do add some kinda massive damage explosive, make it more like a prize you cherish and hold onto untill it's absolutely needed. Not just another weapon to make life easy. I think that's a pretty good balance there.

Note players wont have the grenades, only the Marines will

Just make them regular old Half Life grenades, they aren't overpowered, and it would stop the Marines from doing a now-useless throw grenade motion (by turning into an effective throw grenade motion )

Recrofne, a flamethrower would have done the job just as well as an explosive there.

Explosives are comming for the players, I see no reason why Marines need them, though the grenade throwing animation should be cut out. Marines are NOT expected to hold an area against an overwhelming swarm.

Grenades are already in the game (Tacoland and a vew other maps)

a grenade would be good for marines and players

marines = only throw grenade every now and then, so it just kills a few, stil time 2 get exp.! like every minute or sumin :S

I'm wondering, does anyone give reasons to support their suggestions and opinions anymore?

I stand on my previous points that there is no need for marines to have grenades....
