The excellent AOE killing and high killing range of the gun grenade make it difficult for other weapons to fight against it at medium and close range. The gun needs to hit the enemy to cause damage, but the gun grenade doesn’t need it. Even if it doesn’t hit you directly, and it explodes on the wall or ground around you, it can still kill you, which makes the gun seem weak and depressed in the confrontation of the gun grenade

So far I haven’t seen this supposed grenade spam in my matches, or maybe I kill them faster than they can load and use the grenade launcher. Anyways maybe they would nerf the reload speed of grenade launchers, but honestly you can deal with them more often than not, you see uneven terrain is a good place to take cover from them, or simply shot the guy, before he can use the grenade launcher, also avoid obvious grenade launcher kill zones, like if you only have a single guy in front of the build most heavily focused by the opponent’s, the odds of losing a squad to a grenade are far lower, also using the flanks and not obvious positions to attack or defend greatly reduces the odds of dying to any method to clear defended buildings, such as grenade launchers, tank cannons and MGs (that yes go thru walls), bombing runs, and artillery.
So there are lots of options for ways to avoid such deaths by explosives. If anything the use of more explosives, pushes people to clear areas more methodically instead of doing a classic soviets,l charge towards a fortified position. And against any decent player that never worked, I had got upwards of 160 kills in some matches, because of people mindlessly charging against my MG position.
Grenade launcher , is an explosive device and not a single bullet. It takes less skills to aim, ok yes but it is still an explosive. Yes I get killed more often by the grenade launcher, mostly when I am in buildings but thats it. Saw already people with 2-3 infantry squads, full of it, spaming them from the backyard. What do you want to do? I laugh my ass of when they get hit by a suicide bomber.
It’s kinda pathetic when people gravitate towards op changes. They bitched that riflemen squads are useless and we don’t need k98 with grenade launcher but are now spamming multiple squads full of them, talk about huge ass hypocrites.

This issue is also discussed recently in our Chinese community, so far the conclusion is that a gernade laucher lacks assault compacity since it is still a bolt-action weapon and can’t be used by your AI. A lack of auto firepower can be fatal especially in high-level matches . Indeed it’s OP, but that is all.
