Gonna get a lot of flak for this , but from a game design standpoint this is actually amazing . No , really . You ' re demonstrating exactly how GOOD the design on the grenade launchers is . Self damage is greater than enemy damage ? Makes sense from a game design standpoint . Discourages use of explosives spam in CQC . Means less oneforsuicide tradesDoesn ' t kill in one hit ? Means you don ' t spawn with 3 free oneshot kills in the chamber and it means the explosives can still give full credit toward scorestreaks fairly . Despite Modern Warfare Remastered nobody appears to remember the classic cries of noob toob that the popular low level unlock of the underslung grenade launcher had garnered as a title . You ' re also demonstrating just how poor decisions reap poor results . You fired a grenade at your feet and got punished for it . Who ' d have thought ?
