The same happens with penal satchels a lot of times so I guess its only fair

Yes 4 second timer and an entire squad closing to literally hand-shaking distance is totally comparable to 1 dude crouching and shooting a detonate on impact grenade with bugged sound files from almost maximum small arms range.

I made a thread about this issue pretty recently too. Bonus points if the model firing the nade has a G43 and he doesn't even crouch and just shoulder fires the nade with no warning lol.

Gren rifle nade got nerfed so many times already Show Spoiler

to a point where it is almost impossible to oneshot wipe a squad.

Many times there actually is a sound queue.. and the rifle makes a unique sound upon launching the nade.. + it takes around 3 seconds for the nade to land. So yes, I think there is also the player to blame if he loses a squad to it because he didnt pay attention at all on the few occasions without a sound notification.

Or do you also complain that there is no audio warning queue before a tank oneshots your squad with a lucky shot?

I don't care about the damage, the problem is the sound system not working which is pretty dumb according its the only warning you get with this particular grenade. Grenades not always take 3 seconds to land anyway.

Last time I check yeah I was opening this topic on Bugs section so keep your balance and stuff for yourself please.

I THINK the sound bugs and no warning queues have to do with the game code design to not clutter your ears with 50+ game lines at the same time. So when your squad says "on the move" or something, for a set period of time you won't get a grenade warning etc. That's my interpretation at least on why this occurs. Older games did not have this QoL aspect, and instead you would get clusters of information at the same time. This explains why CoH1 wouldn't have this issue while CoH2 does. It is something adopted probably within the last 10-12 years of games.
