Battlefield V: 12 Tips & Tricks The Game Doesn't Tell You

5. You Can Finally Throw Grenades Back

One of the most infuriating parts of Battlefield 1 was the incessant grenade spam. If you weren't horrifically suffocating thanks to a gas grenade or having to stop drop and roll because somebody tossed an incendiary your way, enemies were chucking tank grenades into bottlenecks, leaving you to watch the explosive just sit there while you waited for your inevitable destruction.

Thankfully, not only has Battlefield V reduced the effectiveness of grenades across the board, they've finally added the ability for you to throw them back if you're quick enough. Even though Call of Duty 4 introduced this feature literally a decade ago, it's relieving to see DICE embrace it, as it gives you more options when a grenade is thrown into a room than just watching with your pants around your ankles as it detonates in your face.
