Please? Pleeeaaaase?

In contrast to what I assume is now 99% of the player base, I play objective gametypes in order to achieve the objective, and not to pad my kill-death ratio. In the case of King of the Hill, however, whatever fun there is to be had is obscured by the multitude of explosive devices bouncing all over the map, such that players can be removed from the Hill by enemies that are on the other side of the battleground. So, please–PLEASE–remove grenades from the King of the Hill playlist. Or, even better, turn the Hill into a shielded area so that players must actually enter it in order to evict its current occupants; this would solve the additional problem of players attacking Hill occupants while making no effort to actively capture the Hill. (Doing this does not make you a better player; it makes you a poor sportsman and a lousy human being.)

Nope, just use Thruster pack to get away from them.

Maximum 3 frags per person, thruster clearing hardly any distance, and confined spaces like Haven. You clearly have no idea what you’re talking about or have never played with grenade spammers.

I don’t use grenades to pad my K/D. I use them to clear out enemies from the Hill so I can get in it. Most of the time, it’s not possible to do this without grenades.

Good teamwork can easily clear a Hill, but there’s no reason whatsoever to engage in it when you can simply spam the Hill with grenades. They limit creativity.
