Hi, I've seen footage on the Internet of the grenade launchers cross hair adjusting to the terrain, showing where the grenade will land. But all I get is a fixed gray cross hair. Is it a dx10 feature only? Or is something not right with my game?
COD 4 grenade launcher
- Thread starter young
- Start date
Not seen that myself, was it ingame footage or a cut-scene?
As for NOOB-TUBE comment, get over it, everyone has access to the weapon. Use it or don't, but do remember that it's part of the game. If you don't like it that much then go play something else. Failing that, adjust and adapt.

I don't use it my self but will have to use it just for the tasks.
But there is no skill & no time to get out of the way like a normal nade.
And to often the other person was a dead man if it was not for the tube as i started shooting first, with bullets hitting them & they only had time for an instant kill with the tube.
And i just cant get used to it has you don't hear anything at close range & you just die wondering WTF just happened.
If they put a delay be before going off that would change allot of things.

dont mind people using it tactically, but some people go round just with the tube out, and use it just to survive, not because theres someone round a corner and they want to catch them 1st without having the delay of a nade, cooked or otherwise
All they need to do is put in the realistic range arming device found in all grenade launchers. It must travel around 20-30ft atleast before it will arm itself. Hit someone in the head with a grenade from 5ft and all you'd do would be to stun them. Which would be quite fun I admit.
Hit someone in the head with a 203 at 5ft and they would be in serious trouble.
That's not the issue, the problem is people who run around with the launcher prepared to fire constantly. It's such a jerk thing to do, you are only prepared for certain encounters but chances are you will be able to take out a good few people before biting the dust, respawning with 2 new nades and doing it again. Brainless and pathetic.

Nade Lamers have been around a long while, detracts from the game imo.
in the head, yeah an m433 would cause massive trauma and possibly death, but anywhere also and it wouldn't necessarily do much damage, unlike ingame.
The game where you can pumped full of lead, and shake it off by sitting in a corner or have little to zero recoil.
Bit sad to moan about the Tube in COD4 as you only get 2 shells. I've reset my stats & as a noob with 1 nade the Tube is my distance weapon & room clearer. I like the full auto weapon though so i must admit to being more of a shooter on COD4 but still you really can't moan about 2 shells surely.
it does have a range arming, if you hit someone point blank it's doesn't explode or if you shoot your feet.
And a lump of metal hitting you in the head with that much momentum at that range would kill you.

Not understanding the moaning about the grenade launcher. In most games theres a wepaon people feel the need to moan about - generally those who are either rubbish or take it too seriously. You can use it, get your own back on them, or change server? Seriously, its a weapon that has 2 shells, why the fuss?!
Plenty of Servers where there banned.
