    Alright, I've been reading a lot about implementing the ability to throw C4.

    I also got off of my lazy ass and played some CoD (MW3).

    In no way, shape, or form is that C4 thrown.
    It's tossed.
    At most, you can toss it, like, what, a few feet away from you?

    In Minecraft you have a 4-block range of placing things.
    That's more than enough to be equal to how far you can "throw" the C4 in actual CoD.

    Unless you guys want bloody slingshots for C4, it basically already has the ability to be "thrown".
    Hell, it's better than throwing.
    You get the same range and it goes down instantly.

    We already have thrown C4.
    We don't need people throwing it across the goddamned map.

    Ok. Point made. Slightly pointless, however.

    Plz no. Throwable c4 would cause havoc. Not a good idea. More reasons to hate c4.

    So a discussion thread in the Discussion subforum is pointless now?

    How much more retarded can the MPS forums get?
    Didn't read the OP at all, did you?
    I'm arguing against thrown C4.

    Please read before making a random post to up your post count so you can get mod.
    You're only hurting yourself.

    Tell 'em how it is tac! GAWSH! (Another thing I like about you)
    Again, agreed with everything you said. GG, you get everything right in my eyes.
    So, one thing I want to bring up specifically you said is that:
    If this would be implemented, you could get zombies placing C4 in the weirdest places.
    I agree, we pretty much do have thrown C4. Nicely done tac.

    It's not a discussion, you're not adding an idea or asking a question. You're simply stating that you think c4 is good as is.

    Of course.
    What better way to spark discussion than stating your opinion?

    Would you prefer I edit the OP to say:
    "HUE LET'S TALK CEE 4"

    How about asking a question. A question like "What do you guys think of the idea that c4 has no need to be buffed? Because <reasons>...

    It's a thread.
    In the Discussion subforum.
    It's already implied.

    Anyone with a shred of common sense will know to chime in with their own opinion on it.

    The only reason I would personally want c4 to be thrown or tossed would be when the c4 gets nerfed to not give damage through walls.

    That would complicate things, coding and during gameplay.
    1. Coding problems: Unless you code this to turn into a potion (or arrow), then turn back into a lever wherever it hits, I cannot think of another way to code it.
    2. Gaming complications: It would be hard to aim. Also, this could re-buff it to where it can go OVER a wall if you aim it right.

    It may be a challenge but I faith it could be coded.

    The whole point to having c4 throwable or tossable would be for getting it around corners or obstacles since the damage can not hurt players through walls.

    You can get around corners with c4 because of the 4 block place (as tac said).
    I do have faith in the coders that they can do this if they really wanted to.

    True, but most times you have to expose yourself which usually leads to a taking damage or even death.
    With c4 tossable the arch would be able to get around most obstacles and making c4 more effective than it will be upon the nerf.
    Plus if you want to kill someone with c4 when they nerf it then you have to place it and wait for someone to wander by, while if you can propel it through the air you can hit more players and boost the items effectiveness.

    Apologies for not taking the "Implied" message. This seemed like you talking to the people who want throw-able C4, and telling them that they should stop asking for it. Also, not sure, but somebody has mentioned this in a thread somewhere.

    C4s and Ray guns suck in my opinion. Cheapest weapons in the server so far.

    In my opinion throwable C4 is Extremely OP.
