Xervion Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 (edited) All I see on the server anymore is "The bomb was nerfed!? I couldn't even get 1 kill with it in the first place!". I also see countless threads crying about how the bomb should be un-nerfed and that no one can get a kill with it. Although, while I'm playing I see a lot of people getting 3 kills with one bomb. All it takes is to wait for the perfect time to run up and get them. You should be able to get at least 1 kill with the bomb if you aren't a derp. Un-Nerfing the Bomb! The bomb doesn't need un-nerfed. The bomb is perfect as it is in my opinion. You just have to know the range of it and when the best time to set it off is. I did have problems with the bomb when I first started playing jailbreak, but you will soon get used to the way the bomb is and will be able to constantly gather 2 or 3 people kills with one bomb. Range of the Bomb The range of the bomb is about from the solitary to the sauna for a lethal blast if you stood in the middle between them, but will probably reach as far as the farthest leg of fountain for them to get hurt. Also, the bomb range and damage is also altered by your rep! So the bomb will get better the longer you're playing the server. Keep in mind that the further away they are, the less damage it does. I like to think of the bombs range as about two or three times the range of a frag grenade in frag wars. Proof the Bomb can do Damage! The round before this picture was taken, two people got 3 kills each. Although I wasn't able to capture the other ones, this one happened when all the T's got into the knife arena, and most of the CT's that were alive were standing next to or close to the button. I guess they didn't think someone had a bomb So I guess what I'm trying to prove here is that everyone needs to just figure out the range of the bomb, and quit crying over how "un-powerful" it is. There could be no bomb in the first place. **Yes, I realise that teamspeak makes it hard to see who got killed, but you can still make out how many people died from it Edited August 12, 2013 by Xervion 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xafizzle Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 But I want a bigger bomb! I think the bomb should be stronger the less rep you have! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeathShot Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 People will always bitch and whine, lets face it. Bombs are fine and always have been in CS:S. Yet, that doesn't stop people from crying about it on forums because they can't use it properly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skeletor1991 Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 I really don't see a problem with the bomb. I die enough from the thing even when I feel out of its range. Keep it the way it is instead of having to go back and forth trying to change the thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xervion Posted August 13, 2013 Author Share Posted August 13, 2013 I think its just because the people that just join the server are new and they don't have a lot of rep so the bombs range isn't that good. IMO me, at 100 rep, can still get 2 to 4 cts with one bomb because they're derps. Whiners will be whiners though 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whiners will be whiners though I'll take 2-4 cts killed at 100 rep then the 85 or so for a HE grenade that MAYBE hurts 1-2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iShootCats Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 (edited) In my opion the bomb nerf was a dumb idea. I'm having instances were I have a ct just a few feet away from me the bomb goes off I see him/her "jump" but no kill. I loved how the bomb was used to cause chaos and panic among the cts(duh it's a bomb). Now it's just move a feet back shoot bomb carrier and I get away with it. If you were derp enough to get close to the T and his bomb you should die. Edited September 4, 2013 by iShootCats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither died, just thrown to the other side of the cage...and that's it. Maybe it wasn't close enough, I don't know, but it looked like the guy did it right next to the cts feet.

Maybe the bomb nerf was overdone I don't know but hopefully someone sees our pleas. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
