Just wondering if I'm missing something or do something wrong but for the life of me I can't use a grenade.

Hand weapons are not an issue but if I hit 7 for a frag grenade (as an example) I can't deploy it. Left mouse button does nothing.

Am I missing something?

Cheers.

There are five possible operations for any army. If you can fight, fight; if you cannot fight, defend; if you cannot defend, flee; if you cannot flee, surrender; if you cannot surrender, die.

You have to hold the grenade button down. Should hear a ticking sound, just don't hold it down too long or it will explode in your hand.

Nwah is correct.

Holding the grenade button down initiates a ticking sound that indicates you have pulled the pin. The longer you hold the key, the further the grenade will be thrown. Releasing the key throws the grenade. Be careful though, if you hold the grenade too long while it's ticking, it'll blow up in you hands.

This is all covered in the manual.

It used to work with the fire button so apologies or missing it in the manual and many thanks for the reply.
