Walnuts raises a good clarification. The poll simply asked whether snipers should be allowed to pick up nades (at all), but did not differentiate between doing it on spawn or when they run out during play.
Many player classes should consider whether they need more than the nades provided at spawning. | |

Fixed that for ya.

If I'm on O, I'll wait around for the nade bag. Because I have plans for those extra nades. And the other team isn't going to like them very much.

I don't have issue with most snipers grabbing the nade bag, however there are a select few who stand off to the sides of the batts and just spam them hoping for an easy kill. I enjoy when they do it because it's a dead giveaway, however it's a huge pain in the ass when it's a friendly one that knocks you into the water (especially when you have the flag)
I'm sure I'm not the only one who ran a flag all the way out to the front of your base, prepares to rocket-jump or nade jump or whatever up to the batts only to get slapped in the face with a friendly nade which just fucks your whole system up if you're being chased.
Then again a noob demo that had been watching other demos det-pack the bridge decided to drop one in front of his own base directly below the cap-point, when it went off it threw the flag carrier all the way back to the enemy batts. FAIL! | |

If I'm in a hurry, I'd just grab the armor and scavenge ammo bags on the field.
If I'm not in a hurry, I'm hogging the grenade bag. Then I'm grabbing all three ammo bags - because fuck you.
edit: one thing I'd rather see, instead of banning snipers from using grenades per -X-'s request... limit 2 snipers per team. 4 is too high, and whenever I see a starting team lineup with more than 2 snipers, 90% of the time it's an automatic loss for that team. | |

That song has one of my favorite bass solos to play. Well played Iggy. | |

Quite honestly, the only sniper I have seen use grenades effectively is Gman. This includes myself too, I'm shit at using grenades as a sniper.
The limit for snipers is 2 but it goes to 4 when there's 2 on each team I think. Regardless we had a match the other day where we had 2 snipers and the other team had none. Needless to say how heavily we lost! | |

Gotta love Rush! How are you on Subdivisions?

I like everything up to Roll the Bones. I'm more of an old school Rush guy, but Signals has some good work on it with Subdivisions and New World Man.
The best is 2112 and Caress of Steel. I saw them in concert a couple years back and when they ended the show with Overture, Temples Syrinx and Grand Finale, the place about went nuts. | |

I bet. I wish I could have seen them live, but I haven't. They don't come to my area. :(

I got to see them on their Snakes and Arrows tour when I was 15. Way cool!

I'd been wanting to see them for years, but it never worked out. Two years ago, the wife got us tickets when they came to Detroit. They played the majority of the new album (concept album) but that was okay. I'd go again if the stars all aligned.

Yep, it was funny the timing of the announcement in relation to this conversation. I'm definitely going! | |
