CRASH BUG Detected: Grenades in a bucket!

[ShockwaveGT]

So I've been replaying parts of the game where you find a lot of grenades. To help me use them in a fire fight, I opted to find a box or bucket to carry around 10 grenades with me, but I noticed repeated crashes when I did that. Just now, I was transporting 5 Xen Grenades and 1 regular grenade for a "boss fight" and the game instantly crashed after I tipped the bucket to it's side to face the doorway where I would be positioning myself.

I assume that the CPU calculation regarding collision are causing the crash but I was wondering if anyone else was facing this issue.

What if you set bucket down and pull them out 1 at a time

yes i've had this issue as well, only with a crate. and not just with grenades, on chapter 7, i had it happen with a crate full of glass bottles i was carrying.

[NKT4EVER]

yes i belive when the game has to do the physics with too many items it gets messed up, thats why in certain areas the grenades will be attached to something when there are many, like the combine soldiers have holsters and medpacks will be stabbed into dead guys and stuff. its definitly a bug they knew about :/

I experienced grenades being somehow ejected from a box, downwards, ending up under the floor. And I also experienced a crash with the same box and some grenades. This was at the place were you get introduced to grenades and can toss them down at the zombies.

I am at in the same spot and I am bringing a crate full of nades too. As soon as I reach some stair it crashes lol (happened twice).

Okay then, well, I won't do it anymore if more people are experiencing the same crashing bug. Too bad though, I wish they would have looked into that...

Yup reported this myself just yesterday, it's actually "any" interaction with grenades happening rapidly causes a full game crash. Just picking them up rapidly multiple times will crash the game almost every time, also sometimes just turning when holding one can cause a crash. Basically the only crashing this game gets, are ALL from grenade related physics/collisions/etc. Someone coded them very poorly. (It's literally only the grenades that cause this.)

I've had this same problem. Well, my boyfriend has, but I just watch him play it via discord screenshare. He found out you could carry things in buckets, and he was ecstatic. Until we found out that doing that in most places will crash the game, and even if you reload and try to carry whatever you were carrying in the bucket, the game would crash. It's... Annoying, to say the least, and I just wish buckets worked because he seemed so cute and happy when we found it out.

It's funny how this game encourages physics interactions, yet the moment you fill up a bucket with grenades, the entire game crashes. Hopefully they will patch this soon.

thats the game letting you know you are pushing it too hard, as much as you would think the devs would want you to hoard grenades and put them in the plentiful boxes strewn about, i really dont think they did concerning how me and many others crash from doing it, hell i only crashed and i only had about 5 in one box.
