This is something I’ve believed to be a problem for a long time. Brendan spam. It has become much more prominent on halo 5 than any other halo. I don’t think the grenade needs to be nerfed at all but I do have an idea to reduce this problem. Either limit the amount of grenades that can found on the map, or limit each player to one grenade when they spawn or for the entire game. This will limit the amount of grenades that will be in the arena at a time, preventing excessive grenade spam. It will also encourage players to think more critically of how they use their grenades. Instead of just chucking them and picking up more, you have to use them carefully and precisely. Also, removing hitmarkers with grenades would also help. There’s no reason that a grenade needs a hitmarkers, it only encourages grenade spam. Please feel free to disagree and comment.

Who is Brendan?
Anyway I agree we should be given more grenades. Incendiary and spike grenades should return and we should start with three of all varieties.
The game has hit makers and nades and bullets, as well as kill markers.
As for grenades I will quote this from HCS.
“heading over to sniper side where there are 82 grenades throw in that direction from the start of every game”

Don’t know what your point is for hitmarkers but fr the HVS quite, I can explain. When there’s a spot, that holds a power position, and has a lot a traffic, spamming grenades is a tactic used to keep people out. That’s not what’s happening. Players are just throwing grenades in random directions hoping for a kill. Its prevents a player from being able to fight back, something halo gameplay was known for.

Huh? Maybe you should explain those points to the OP.

He is the OP.
Honestly I don’t see anybody just throwing random grenades. They’re always strategically placed and never randomly thrown hoping for a kill.

People are slow today. I was pointing out that his own arguments refute his initial point.

You can’t read tone. It would’ve been easier to say sarcasm or lol.

Oh you changed your pic to the arbiter instead of the wasp. I would’ve recognized it then.
Lowering grenade volume at start isnt going to help anything. Look at Warzone Assault. you start with one grenade and there’s STILL spam.

I motion for a petition to force comedyshermit to use his old wasp avatar. I also did not immediately recognize him and that is unacceptable.

I changed my emblem in game. Apparently the old emblem is no longer available as an avatar when you do that.

Sorry comedyshermit, us 2 people have spoken. Change it back NOW!
Lol
I think hit markers in general are stupid
finally somebody who understands the struggle. I don’t throw as much grenades as everyone else does. But the constant spam is ridiculous. Especially when your trying to hide for a few seconds and that one little a hole grenade comes bouncing in to ruin your day. In arena when one team is on one side the other team on the other. I tend to be the only one trying to shoot while everyone else lodges grenades. And of course warzone. Specifically assault. When your in the armory you usually have 12 grenades bouncing in other than bullets.
Grenade spam is the only thing I hate about this game right now.
Well that and snipers.
I feel the grenade spam was worse in Reach (as far as team slayer/arena) but yeah WZA is pretty bad and is worse because of the infinite grenade hog.

> I think hit markers in general are stupid
What? No! They are awesome! Very well implemented in Halo 5.
Grenade spam is everyone’s excuse for unsuccessful attempts to hide…
i feel like people might throw a few more grenades in this game than in previous halo’s… Due to Hitmarkers, that clue the attacker in on ones whereabouts. But there are plenty of tools for use to evade those grenades
