Default DOTW: Nades and Grenade Launcher...

So I know a lot of people have their own preferences when it comes to which arsenal of nades to carry. I know some carry 3x frag grenades, other carry stun and flash. What do YOU use?

Also, I know a lot of people hate the grenade launcher, and other's love it... What is your preference?

You can also check out last weeks DOTW here: DOTW: Is the M4 overrated, overpowered, or completely useless?

If you use the GL like you should, its awesome. But most people use it like some retard with no eyes.

I like the stun grenades personally. I quite often lob one into a room as a detection if we don't have a uav and I suspect there are enemies in there. I get to know whether they are in there and can rush in if they are and knife/shoot them.

As for the grenade launcher, I hate it. I'm not bothered if people use it from a distance as that is how it is supposed to be used, but when people run around a corner with it at the ready I get annoyed. The other thing is that Activision/Infinity Ward have encouraged this by making it a requirement for a challenge.

i cant even begin to express how much i HATE that n00bt00b. i completely agree... if its used from the distance, kudos to you. but if you run around with it as your primary weapon, and just flinch at someone 10 feet away, you should die from that too. there really needs to be some sort of reasonable minimum distance for it to detonate on impact. it bugs me so much that its a one-shot kill, and you dont even have to aim properly to be effective with it.

Smoke all the way! Stuns and flashes are fun too. I always manage to hit a sign or a telephone pole when I throw them though, so they explode at my feet..

Stuns are so legit. Throw it in a room and completely stop everyones movement and blind them for five seconds. Its not a totally unfair advantage or anything.

3x Stun for me. A smile always comes to my face when someone actually gets killed from one I just tossed in a room.

One stun, one frag, and an AK walk into a bar. Boom goes the bar and me.

i get mad at the noobtube as previously posted as well. thought i would just leave this though. i unlocked the M14 yesterday and attached the noobtube just to screw around. the map we got was Overgrown and as soon as the round started, i took two steps forward and launched it across the map at the bridge that people use to get across. I got one kill and was like, wow, wtf?! then did it again and got two kills. after the match was over, i detached it from the gun, lol
