    Using grenades and molotov cocktails?

    How do you use the grenade & molotov cocktail with keyboard & mouse? As stated in the User Manual, I hold down the "1" key and select the grenade, but when I release the "1" key, it goes back to the assault rifle. Thus, I have been unable to use a grenade or molotov cocktail on any of the missions.

    Help please.

    Middle mouse click is the default to throw them.

    I think 9 and 0 select one or the other.

    At least in SP mode.

    9 & 0 bring them up in the lower right part of the screen. However, I do not have a middle mouse (just a mouse wheel) and this does not bring them up in order to throw them. Any other thoughts on how I may be able to use them?

    I am truly at a loss.

    Usually the wheel can be clicked just like a middle mouse button (i.e. it is both a wheel and a button).

    You can also use the options to reassign the action to any button you wish.

    Thanks for your help on this. By using the "Options" menu I was able to reassign the throwing of grenades & molotov cocktails to another key which enabled me to use them.
    Your input was very helpful.

    Good gaming !!
