Rubber nades!

So, I put my hand on this new GL today. I landed my very first nade right into some hallway and got it back in my face! It must be a whip... wait... whips no longer whack nades back in your face! Ah, then wh... oh, it's a wall! Nades are made of rubber, if you touch some objects and it's not a ground, dem nades will bounce like if they touched good old whip, like if the floor was lava and they are too scared to fall, like if they were walljumping skulks! Dem little nades. Uncontrollable. Unpredictable. I'ma put my GL away, it's like every room is filled with nades whacking whips now. Except there are no whips.

    Well, people complained about whips OP ability to toss back your nades.
    THIS is their way of dealing with that problem, why not? :)

    Chances are you fired it into a wall during a lagspike on the server.

    The grenades being predicted client-side sure feels more fluid and responsive, but I noticed that the client-side and server-side grenade locations now differ immensely. I had explosions occur up to 5 meters from the perceived projectile, and I had grenades bouncing off walls that were half a meter from where I was aiming at.

    I witnessed this every time I launched a grenade during whole match.

    The collision detection definitely doesn't feel right, it's just incredibly easy to accidentally bounce them off teammates or thin air.
