Grenades À La Enemy Territory?

<div class="IPBDescription">fuse...</div> For as far as I heard, the handgrenades(w00t!) are going to have a fuse of 4 seconds, in other words, they are useless for 70% of the map.
Now I wonder, is it possible for them to start the countdown as the nades in Wolfenstein: enemy territory?
The fuse starts running when you pressed fire so you can, with some timing, throw a killing-nade around the corner.

    But we don't want grenades like in TFC where you need to throw grenades perfectly to make up 50% of your damage.

    TFC style grenades would be fun, but very unbalanced. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

    ET had some great grenades, I cant believe I almost forgot about them. Probably the coolest grenades, second only to HL2 alpha grenades

    I personally dont think adding grenades is going to make the game better. It just makes it harder to balance. If the grenades become as usable as a tfc or cs grenade it will gives the marines the uncanny ability to own multiple aliens at one time and to ruin any ambush the aliens try to set up. The way the grenades are now they just dont do enough damage over an area and they dont go where we want them to go. So right now grenades are useless, and if they get fixed they will make the marines overpowerd.

    and they lag the server something awful.

    I dont mind the grenade, it give marines a chance to scare off or even kill that damn lerk in the vent sporing your base.
