It looks like you missed by a hair and the grenade triggered its seeking behavior but whipped right around him and into the wall. Stickies do fail sometimes.

1) You want to talk about a grenade and say nothing about that filthy quick scope? Looks like a XIM.
2) Flux grenades are garbage. Quick movement gets people out of them pretty reliably.

I used stickies when I first started playing because I mained sunbreaker and then switched to zoning grenades when I started trying out other classes. Recently I've been playing with stickies again. Not great, but pretty fun. Very good against shotgun chargers.

Of all the stickies Flux is easily the worst. I swear their damage is RNG and their "stick arc" is a lot smaller than something like a Fusion. You're much better served getting creative with Skips while in close quarters.

Yeah, I usually use skips or arcbolts. Otoh I played a game the other day as a sunbreaker with the armamentarium, max disc, simmering flames, and fusions. It was gross. So many 'get it off' badges.

Flux grenades fall off of people a lot of the time but talk about satisfying when they work on shotties.

Lol holy poo poo

BlindSite
Feb 8, 2009

So I played 9 games yestersay - 1 solo then 3 with cheesefactory, then 5 more solo accross rift and zone control did ok in the first game but it was sweaty as gently caress, lots of clan tags and players I recognised, lots of red and yellow connections, got dumped out of the first game with cheese factory with a weasel error but I was just chugging dicks that game, our team had all negative k/d ratios except cheesefactory.

Did poo poo in the 2nd ok in the 3rd, dominated in the 4th, 5th, 6th, did dog poo poo in the 7th and finished mid table with a 2.3 kd in the final game.

The only change in the lobbies where i did well compared to poo poo wasnt the opponent quality because there were a lot of the same guys in the same matches because bungies match making is currently so tight you couldnt pull a pin from its rear end with a tractor it was a lack of red bar gods.

One game we played on frontier I just dropped dead and the kill screen didnt have what killed me just that I got killed by an opponent I was engaged with, even though i head shot him twice with my 1kys, neither shot registered.

Right now it seems I can play with the same 8 or 9 players in a lobby and swing between a 3 kd and a .5 kd depending on where the red bar gods are team wise. You lose all map control, heavy control and fall victim to team shooting, super trains and spawn exploiting so much more when the connections are hosed.

Theres some days I'll think maybe my aim is just off or something only to record the game and watch it back to find that its just a lack of registration in the bullets.

Cosmos community thread is full of the same complaints and reports. Its beyond a joke at this point.

I'll suck it up and keep playing but the poo poo thing is now having a crisp game is stupid rare.

I ended up trying King's Fall normal with some randoms from lfg.Got all the way to Daughters despite my best efforts to gently caress up the jumping puzzles for half an hour. That was fun and the guys were pretty chill.
