i think they should make a squad buster or some other kind of paint granade that instead of going off on impact, it should go off after a set amount of time after the pin is pulled. like 5 seconds after you pull that pin. that might be kinda cool. what do you think?

How would they make a paint grenade that would do that?  Batteries? 

I honestly see no point in it.  The cost of such an item would make it impractical.

i just impossible to make a paintball granade that can do that because it would have to be made electric power source or be harmful in some way

Impractical? BS. So in real life, M-67 grenades are impractical because there timed? Your right and the government, Army, Marines, and all other zcountries are wrong?

Your argument is crap.

Think about it.

Do you honestly think REAL gernades cost $5?  Do you honestly think government budgets are the same as a player's budget?

Use your brain kid, a timed paint gernade would cost $20 and up.  Can you honmestly see a player buying one of those?

And for those of you saying springs and crap would work, your wrong.  A paint grenade works by throwing it so paint if forced out.  To make it timed it would take a pressure source and a timer system.  How the hell do you plan to provide a pressure source that will not kill or hurt someone?

yah darurs right a paint grenade works cuz it hit the ground and the impact forces all the paint out

u might be able to use co2 as a pressure source but it would be complicated, expensive, and possibly dangerous

How about latex grenade that has a twisted neck.  Twisted in a way that would take 3-5 seconds for the pressure of the paint inside to force its way out.

Firstly, most paintmines run off trip wires, or they use remotes.

Secondly, you dont throw a paintmine

Thirdly, How the hell does this have anything to do with a timed gernade?

My point about cost was that a timed gernade would NOT be reuseable. 

Imagine trying to find the thing on 10 acres or more of land, hell try find it in your backyard after a few hours of play.  The next point would be how do you intend to reuse the gernade?  How are you going to fill it again?

Prove me wrong, you go out and build this thing and sell it.

P.S - You havent seen any flames from me, by the way.

I am simpley stating why your idea wont work
