"If you think something is possible then it probably is"
I tried two things
1) shooting a grenade trap with my gun. It only overlayed a bullethole texture on top of the grenade which looked like the wall, so I thought it worked but it didn't and when I opened the door, it went boom
2) blowing up a grate with a grenade which didn't work either

So maybe... don't show that message to players in the future xD

Sure, but the things I tried weren't some big brain odd ideas, it was literally the basic idea of "I will make a grenade blow up by shooting it" and "I will blow up a blockade"
My logic was that of literally 2000s games, nothing advanced. I wonder what is the special thing that I may think about that is possible and not directly something you have to do to progress xD

I totally agree. For a game that is touting the "Play how you want" card, there are a surprising amount of restrictions to how you can play...

Can you explode a grenade by shooting it? Does it work that way in real life? I'm going to google this and see if Mythbusters did a thing on this...

EDIT: Apparently, in 99% of cases, shooting a grenade will do nothing. The only way to shoot it and make it explode would be to hit the detonator to start the normal chain-reaction leading to the explosion.

i think one of the escape items is in the chained room so thats probably why you cant access it or theres a item that helps you later in the game
which means we need a chain cutter or idk what to call (and the symbols changed on my keyboard does anyone know how to fix this i cant find the question mark)

While I would normally agree, in the very same game you can explode a barrel of gunpowder by shooting it, which is also not how it works in real life. So then it just gives the game a lack of consistency.

Fair point, but I just assumed video game logic is different than real life logic, and as Kackerjax pointed out, the game *does* have "pew pew = boom" logic with gunpowder barrels.

Yeah I spent an embarrassing amount of time trying to figure out how to disarm the traps before I looked up a video where someone just threw a chair into the trip wire. Like I can see the grenade and the wire, yet I can't do anything about it? Maybe there is some way of dealing with those in the full release that we haven't seen yet.

Interesting. I didn't locate the gunpowder. Also, I completely agree with others who posted regarding video game logic implying shooting something to blow it up being common practice. I do kind of hope the full product allows for shooting a tripwire grenade to detonate it. I'm with you in that I like consistency, logic or not.

Also, you know- if not the grenade, I think it's safe to assume that shooting it would harm the wire (or at least shooting the wire should work then)

Dang it. Now I'm curious if those trip-wires work off high tension, and if a bullet hitting the line would act as a pushing force versus a cutting force.

I shot a grenade trap and it blew up, maybe you just missed the hitbox.
alguien sabe con que tecla se recarga el arma?

Why would you shoot the trap if you can just jump over it? lol
