That's what I was thinking.

Yeah, if you see a grenade, run like f***!

i'd run like the wind if the blokes in game were fast enough blackwire

If i see a grenade come over, i just take my hands off the keyboard and mouse, swear and then watch it explode.

what if your in the prone position and grenade lands in front of you?

well standard procedure is to jump 20 meters into the air and scatter yourself over a large area.

This thread is reminding me of VBF2 and its grenade pwnage (shudder) i once saw 2 squads not sing weapons but insted launching grenade after grenade as there support guy reloaded them.

Infantry Basic Drill

The Basic Drill is what all individual soldiers should do by instinct if they come under "effective fire".

*It goes as follows:

*run two or three steps
*drop to the ground or into cover and provide indirect suppresive fire in the general direction of the enemy
*crawl a few yards (or move under concealment/cover)
*observe
*shoot (identified targets of opportunity within effective range)
*move
*observe
*shoot
*move
*repeat until issued orders

The basic drill is designed to get a soldier into cover, move him from the last position where they were likely to be seen by the enemy, and get him engaging any targets within range that he can see. For example, to provide a few simple steps for him to follow under stress that will keep him alive and positively engaged until his commander makes an appreciation and issues instructions. '''Note:''' Different armies tend to have different variants of this method, but the main objective is still the same: To keep a soldier alive during the first seconds of combat stress.

when a nade is thrown at you, if you are near a wall go prone and get your head as close to the wall as your can, its to do with the hitbox if your head is in the wall you take the least amount of damage
