Okay, start up Halo 2. Go in any game. Now, note that you start looking straight forward. Just straight, no angle up or down. This is 0 degrees of angle. Now, look straight up. This would be 90 degrees of angle, but you can't quite make it to straight up when you look. Now, look exactly half way between 90 degrees and 0 degrees. This is 45 degrees, also known as terminal angle to some throwers. 45 degrees has many, many nicknames. Throwing a nade at 0 degrees just throws it straight. Throwing a nade 90 degrees will have it come right back down (or would, if you could throw at 90 degrees). Edge 0 up slightly, and it goes farther. Edge 90 down slightly, and it goes farther. It does this until 45 degrees. 45 degrees is the position at which you can throw nades the farthest. |
thats pretty cool. i will have to think about that when i throw grenades now.  |
