The Stun grenade currently affects the car too. Your screen goes all white for about 5 secs. In that time you can shoot the car, tube, or C4 it or just simply run away. I thnk its fine the way it is. I get chased around the same time as anybody else and some times I get killed most times, I kill the car. It didn't use to be like this but I adapted my tactics. I am not using anything other than what you guys use. If you get good with sound processing use the EMP nade before you see the car. The EMP nade has a pretty wide circular blast radius. I have seen it disable my car when someone was in the other room. You may not be able to outsmart a smart player all the time.
Tips:
- If you hear a car coming your way run up to a corner and throw the nade in front of you. The car driver won't see it and by the time they realize it will be too late.
- If you're in confined places throw the EMP nade when the car is coming up close to you, NOT on you. As in, you do not have Line Of Sigh (LOS) but Doppler effect distance measurement. The car cannot navigate away easily and you can disable it.
- Throw a Flash grenade type nade to disable a car will make it far too easy. It's instant bang and people will be able to kill the cars without any tactics involved. Reminds me of an argument on ACR being too 'noob' friendly.
I know people like me, who love chasing around people with Hardwired probably annoy the shit out of people who hate getting blown up by cars. Much in the same way I hate the helmet. I wish it were gone, because a lot of my game play relies on one shot/burst kills. I move from target to target or try to move very quickly when they are in sight. If one person has a helmet and I couldn't kill them while trying to another, I am dead.
So again, If you make killing the car too easy people will stop using it all together. Nowadays pretty much everyone uses Hardwired so its already pretty challenging to kill someone with a car. The timer is 30 seconds, its a long time to stalk a person. I usually toil around until and give intel to my teammates on enemy locations and when I am down to 10s in the timer I blow up the campers/snipers. If I find or I think I found some familiar friend player I chase them specifically for personal amuse. I am not always right but I have gotten pretty good at it by behavioral study. A lot of people run in their unique ways even though their characters have the same avatar. I can easily spot @@Giggles, @@azzkikr, @@Nighto @TagGer and a few other players when they are in the opposite team. It is a guess but an educated guess nonetheless. I usually identify @@ChknFngr by the way he throws the EMP nade, right on his feet like a dumbass, HAHAAA , much love.
