Yeah, when you're off-host, sometimes you will throw "blank" grenades that will just disappear instead of going off, sometimes you will throw grenades that will go off really late (and sometimes be invisible), or you will do the grenade hand throwing motion, but no grenade will ever be thrown.  The last one is my personal favorite, especially with the Drell Vanguard, because it looks like you just charged into a group of enemies and started doing fist bumps like some Jersey Shore reject.  CERBERUS DANCE PARTY!

Déjà Vu!

Does anybody else have issues with the grenades not always working or exploding when they're supposed to?

 

I find that when my squad and I have hacking objectives it is crucial that we hold position to expedite the mission, and as such, we get swarmed. A resolution I find is to lay grenades, but they don't always go off, and when you have bastards like phantoms swarming you in close confinement and limited cover, you need every advantage you can get.

 

I noticed that happening to me before but I have come to understand that this is happening due to your power use being canceled.  For example, you throw a grenade and then dodge immediately after, there seems to be a % chance that the grenade is canceled by your dodge.  Also, if you get stunned by geth primes or hunters, etc.

Nah, I just use the grenades to clear spawns. I see where you're having issues, try shooting the phantoms before they get to the hack/LZ.

maybe spinning in circles with a flame thrower would be better since your grenades arent going off 

[Onewomanarmy]

Why can each character only carry such few grenades? It's not enough, it will never be enough. 

 

And no.... upgrades aren't easy to get.....

[Caineghis2500]

^^Getting upgrades from the lolRNG store was pretty easy for me. Playing platinum often should get you the credits to upgrade your gear pretty fast

Getting upgrades in general isn't super hard if you build up your manifest correctly, i.e. maxing commons and uncommons, then moving on to rares after you've cleared out all the garbage. I was surprised by how quickly I was able to get decent stuff once I stopped stupidly saving up for PSPs all the time (which took a while because no one was around to tell me how to do things for a decent chunk of time).

 

Granted, when I say "quickly," I mean after an obsessive amount of gameplay in a condensed period of time.

Grenades.

 

Grenades?

 

Grenades.

I've gotten tons and tons of upgrades but so far only the upgrade with the +1 extra grenade, it's just not enough people. All I do is play Gold and plat, okay I stopped playing plat but that was all the guys dragged me through from the start and until recently so I've upgraded plenty. It must be very rare those grenades upgrades, do I have to play for several years? LOL

Nah, I've only been playing for a few months and I maxed my grenade gear around a month ago.

 

Have you considered a blood sacrifice to the RNG Gods?

Ah! That's terrible!

 

If this is indeed true, it explains a lot, because I tend to throw grenades in tight situations.

Thanks for the response.

 

It's tough, because if my team and I, Pick Up Games, are not communicating, they'll think I'm just being an ******* by not standing in the circle. I've been yelled at in the past for trying to tactically dart in and out, and pick off nasties. 

 

The grenades have been my alternative, but now that I'm learning of how power cancels can occur (and how the games are based off the HOST's connection [!]), I'll try to be more patient with the animations.

 

Seriously, though, you can't always stick in those freaking circles.

Yeah sometimes you might have to abandon the objective or launch a missile if it's going into a group of bosses, but if your concern is baddies in the objective, there are better alternatives than grenades. Snapcheese, Reeger, stasis, lash, chain overload, a BE or TE, and flamer are some of the easier ones.
