Tip Tip: You can prime grenades. All grenades have a fuse of 6 seconds (except the concussion grenade, it has a fuse of 4 seconds). Just hold the grenade as long as you deem necessary. When released, the fuse will keep running, and the grenade will explode prematurely. Use this to your advantage to give the enemy no chance to escape. A grenade will always retain a minimum fuse of 2 seconds. You cannot blow yourself up when priming a grenade.
