I really don’t like how this feature is now gone. I loved how you could do it in the old halos. To me this should still be in the game. I know it’s a small feature, but to me it’s an important one. Just make it hard to do like the past halo games. What do others think?
I thought the feature was still around for weapons that were precision based, IE BR, DMR, Magnum, Ect.
It was my understanding that it wasn’t… if this is true, can you or someone please link for me?
Only for precision weapons!
I vote no but its only because in h5 the hit box for the grenades was massive! I mean massive! I was blowing up peoples nades while aiming at their face when they were throwing them.
and truthfully, how many people, when they shoot a grenade mid flight can say they were “aiming for it!” Yeah right! Why were they aiming at the Spartans arm? I don’t think we should be rewarded with essentially a free kill because we missed a Spartans tiny head and accidently hit their hand!
They took it out because it was REALLY -Yoinking!- ANNOYING in the beta. If someone was shooting at you and you threw a frag at them, it would instantly explode in you hand and kill you, giving them a cheap kill. You can still shoot nades on the ground i believe, just not out of the air. I am so glad they removed that mechanic.

so much this
only when they’re on the ground.
In the beta it was really easy to shoot a grenade out of the air. I shot two or three grenades that would have killed me and it saved my life.
lol at first I read the thread title as “shoot grenades” like a grenade launcher like the one in Reach. So I said no, then I finally realized what you meant.

it was there in the beta but 343 removed it cause somebody told he/she died when launching a granade because some guy shoot at it, it never happened to me, and I played something like 24h… this feature should come back
I’d love to have this back not only becasue I can get those lucky kills but also for training my sniper as shown at the start of this video.
But it can also be used for more strategic use like you see a grenade which is by a corner, you don’t have any, and you shoot it to hit the apponent on the other side of the corner to weaken him.
Something else I’d like to have back with grenades (well not only nades) is TEAMFIRE!!!
I hate when people can mindlessly throw grenades into a room where his team is just to grab that kill without hurting anyone on the team. It adds a huge skillgap, to be aware of where and when to throw a grenade, shoot a rocket, aim a gun etc.
