It is not really even a new thing.
The explosive arrows of the crossbow do the same.
If I was a betting man I would say they will probably reduce the velocity and/or the blast radius.
Personally I would had preferred mortar gadgets to having so many different direct fire explosives
EDIT: Called it, they reduced the blast radius
@UP_Hawxxeye The explosive arrows of the crossbow ?!?
Hell no, far less velocity, longer reload for 1 shot only, and blast radius far smaller... Oh and by the way crossbow is a primary weapon meaning a lot on the performance of the whole loadout.
"It's not a new thing"... In a certain way you're right we already had explosions, but it bring more of them, with easier utilisation and it's more efficient (still comparaing like you did with crossbow).
You can't pretend you've seen as many crossblow as we see SPH users.
I've already made a thread on this, how the combinaison of more and more explosive spam tools turn Breakthrough in something quite disgusting on many flag zones.
Because we had all vehicule passenger seats with 30mm canons, 40mm grenade launchers, mortar, cinetic grenades, etc. etc. You could had all tools from infantry as hand grenades, rockets, etc. etc.
Adding more and more season after season change the game because usual counters are over saturated now, Irish trophy last very short those days for exemple. And in my opinion, not for the best (but anybody may thing differently).
The SPH blast radius is far too large.
