M2 Fragmentation Grenade

Master the M2 Fragmentation Grenade in Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare! Learn its stats, effective uses, and how to counter enemy grenades with this expert guide.

Hey there! Let's talk about the M2 Fragmentation Grenade in Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare. This is your go-to for clearing out groups of enemies and flushing them out of cover. Think of it as your best friend when you've got a bunch of baddies huddled together or hiding behind something.

Stats:

• Range: Medium
• Rate of Fire: Medium
• Damage: Very High
• Mobility: Very Fast

What it Does:

Basically, this grenade's metal casing breaks apart into a ton of deadly fragments when it explodes. It's awesome for taking out infantry, especially those dug into defensive positions. Just a heads-up, though, they won't do much against armored vehicles.

How to Use It (and Not Blow Yourself Up):

You'll be tossing these around a lot, so you'll get the hang of it fast. In Call of Duty: United Offensive (and similar mechanics often apply), you can 'cook' the grenade by holding down the right-click button. You'll see your crosshair blink about six times – that's your cue! Toss it *before* it blinks too many times, or you'll be in for a nasty surprise (and a respawn). Trust me, you don't want to blow yourself up with your own grenade.

Enemy Grenades & Other Tips:

• Watch Out: Enemy grenades are just as dangerous, if not more so. If you see one land near you, don't try to be a hero and pick it up. Your best bet is to just run like crazy or dive for cover immediately.
• Group Takedowns: Spot a cluster of enemies, especially those with those little light-bulbs over their heads (meaning they're chatting and not paying attention)? That's prime grenade territory. Toss one in and enjoy the chaos – and maybe some funny chat reactions.
• Flush 'em Out: Enemies hiding in buildings or behind cover? Lob a grenade their way. When they scatter, you can pick them off with your gun.
• Area Denial: Toss them into windows where you suspect enemies are hiding, or even in the path of incoming jeeps.
• Teammate Awareness: Remember you've got teammates around. Don't toss grenades so carelessly that you end up taking them out. We're all trying to win here!
• Console Commands (If You're Really Stuck): In some situations, if you get stuck in a glitch, you might be tempted to type `/kill` in the console. If that's not an option, well, you know what to do with a grenade... just try not to catch yourself with it!

A Little History:

While there isn't a ton of deep history on the M2 specifically, just holding one (in real life, or even imagining it) gives you a sense of its weight. They're not exactly light, which is why soldiers wouldn't just chuck them around like baseballs all the time – you'd definitely strain your arm!
