Bugs[]

Playstation 3 An odd glitch with this item; if you move an extinguisher, and then detonate it (shoot or toss a grenade), the shrapnel will spread out as normal, but one or two pieces of shrapnel (usually the top and bottom of the canister) will spawn where the extinguisher originally was, even if it's impossible for anything to have blasted to that location.
