The Hushed Casket was founded in 2002 shortly after the launch of the XBOX console. Today the Hushed Casket is a thriving community of gamers, playing together and publishing news and stories that have appeared in major media properties like Newsweek, G4TV, USA Today, and Penny Arcade. Some game developers have even referenced our guides and news to support their gamers. We don't play Halo. We LAN Halo.

GG BattleItch. CoD4 rant.

GG BattleItch.

CoD4 rant. How fun do you think CoD4 would be if everyone ran around with grenade launchers? It'd be a different game in a similar way that Rockets-only in the Halo games make the games very different. It brings everyone's K/D ratio toward 1:1 when everyone uses them. I hope CoD4 doesn't go there. Everyone with Grenade Launchers on Vacant wouldn't be a game that I'd like to play.

The Noob Combo in Halo 2 was called such because it was an easy and effective way for anybody of any skill level to get a kill on anybody of any skill level. The same goes for Grenade Launchers in CoD4, BF2, Ghost Recon, any of the Tom Clancy games, etc.

Can someone tell me how to deal with a Grenade Launcher on a map like Vacant?

I can't counter a Grenade Launcher. I can only try to avoid it.
