Um... I'm doing something wrong because my grenades get stuck in the air? Strange game design then... Are you kidding??? And they can get stuck in the air even when you're not moving. Last night I was hitting fly traps with them so I wouldn't have to move, and when my friend would throw a grenade first, mine would get stuck in the air, and vice versa. What exactly are we doing wrong? Trying to use the same weapon on enemies near each other - heaven forbid! Anyone having this bug PLEASE report it - it won't get fixed if I'm the only one reporting it because then they think *I'm* doing something wrong... just like this guy.

Alright. So they haven't been getting stuck in the air as much, but I discovered an even more annoying problem.
Earlier, I was also throwing grenades at Fly Traps. Even though most of them hit (and I could tell because the damage amount in red popped up), they still didn't damage the health meter on the Fly Trap. I had to aim and hit it square on the head for it to do any damage.

Also, at Navy Forts, the grenades almost always fall straight through the floor if you don't aim right.

Wouldn't it be nice if they had an aiming tool for the grenades? Like they do for the pistol and dagger?

It's sad cause your response sounds a lot like the response we get in the emails. It's something we are doing wrong... Umm no your damn grenades get stuck in mid air.
Not if you don't move while you're throwing them. Of course PotCO knows grenades are bugged! But you can avoid the glitch if you stand still while you throw without Long Volley. I don't want to start a flame war, so case closed.

Sorry for the double post, but when I said don't write in, I didn't say it right. I meant to say that you shouldn't get fuming mad about the problem.

As I said before, you can still get the bug if you are standing still. It happened while I was hitting fly traps and my friend was throwing at the same time. Neither of us was moving.

I'm not fuming "bad", I'm just trying to encourage other people to submit bug reports. If everyone assumes someone else will do it, then Disney doesn't realize how much of a problem it is. And apparently I'm not the only one who is frustrated with this bug. Whether or not Disney knows grenades are bugged, if they don't get the bug reports they can't figure out WHY they are bugged and fix it - they just think it's a problem on my end.

So I made one typo and one mistake in my near 300 posts. Give me a break lol

I've never had the glitch when standing still AND using Long Volley.
PotCO already knows about the problem obviously. I never said you shouldn't report it, I just wanted to mention that they probably already know.

Okay this is what I know of them so far, no a lot I must add...
One, they stick whenever they want, but MUCH more so when others are using them

Two, if you don't HIT something with them, they will NOT injure the enemy even if they show the subtraction in red.
Once you HIT someone, it will dole the damage out to all the surrounding enemies in the area

Yep.
In other words, these things need a lot of help.

Before there is further comment on IF the grenades are bugged, please review This Post in which Disney address the Grenades.

It takes a bit to get used to them. Took me several levels to get the aim right, and i'm still not perfect, but my grenades are lvl 12 atm
