Thanks for voicing this for us, Tink.
We removed this for two reasons:
We removed this for two reasons:
- Based on the stories that were shared with us, Marines rarely cooked frags.
- Accidental deaths were very common for players.

1. Rarely means that it did happen and was a factual event therefore should be included.AmperCamper wrote: ↑Wed Mar 20, 2024 6:15 am Thanks for voicing this for us, Tink.

2. Accidents happen. We learn from them. I got to be a decent player by accidently getting my a$$ handed to me and learning not to do that again. This is no reason to not have a feature in a game. I mean, because its hard? really?
This is going the way of the easy button. Just because new players get dead isn't a reason to dumb down the game for the rest of us. I died a few times cooking a frag until someone explained what was happening. After learning the mechanic was broken, I figured out how to use it properly. With the way the bots react now, cooking a frag would be very useful. Fix the mechanics. Don't remove a feature of the game. One step forward...

I vote for bringing cooking back.
Just like the stories, players rarely cook frags too.
But for those of who would like to....

That's because there was nothing to indicate that the grenade was actually armed - character pulled the pin, but spoon (which from my understanding needs to be ejected to arm the fuse) was still in place.

I agree. Cooking frags helped a lot when trying to blow up vbieds and now when you throw a frag into a building the enemies just run out instead of them not having a chance to run out.

Re: Bring back the ability to cook a frag.
Id like to see cooking back as well.
People dying from cooking grenades is expected and a calculated risk.
We find more people are dying from uncooked grenades because of the extremely long delay. Some players toss one in a building and then other players enter and die, We call it the Hot potato.
