I think the original idea belonged to poaw - But here it is anyway.
40mm grenades should be bought in bulk. Thats right, bulk. 6-8 nades.
Force players to be a grenadier, if they want to carry nades.
With this system, you can get rid of the huge overbulking of grenades - they still will be heavy - but this is for a useable number of them. It seems kind of odd that the grenades are 4 bulk, while the m67 hand grenade is only one. Thats right, 2 40mm nades are as bulky as one shotgun.
And as a final protection against abuse, there is the arming range to consider. Increasing the arming range (through usage of a certain mutator...) reduces "cheap kills" CONSIDERABLY.
Realistic shrapnel implementation is still useable.
Just my thoughts on the 40mm as a weapon, as it is quite an interesting weapon to play with/against when used in its proper implementation.
