I don't know if this has been suggested, but what about proximity mines as a special bonus type thing, like the cluster grenades? You get 3 mines in the box, just like clusters, and you can plant them around. If a ally sets one off, it doesn't hurt them, like with any sort of grenades, but they hurt your enemies and yourself if you land on them? Just a thought. Opinions?

Mines have been suggested many times in the past, but not recently (if I remember correctly), so I thought I'd approve this topic just to throw the idea out there again. - Stalky

Yes, even I have suggested this a few months ago. And I still think this would be a sweet bonus.

As long as it doesn't have a hugmunous power on it, it's alright with me.

Nay. I wouldn't like it spawn on top of one of those. Or cap the flag just to get ripped apart by mines. Even if it is a bonus. Perhaps if the "mine-layer" had to "set it up" and it would take a long time. Then I would be fine with that.

That and waved a big red flag saying "Shoot me"

I hope we can find a counter measure or some restriction like it can be sett off by explosions or it can't be planted at respawn points or it will take a reasonable time to plant one. If we accept some restrictions then I wish to make these mines a secondary instead of a bonus.

Oh and can we not let it be set off by our own teammates? I wouldn't want to plant them just to see my teammates set them off one by one and saying things like: WTF?! Which dumbass noob planting stupid mines at stupid place?!

what if bullets set off mines? and, in addition, mines automatically detonate in 45 seconds? eh?

I like the bullet sets off mine idea! Minigun can finally put to some real use!

As for the 45 secs detonate it needs to be considered. It's not that short but if it's accepted make mines a secondary and let us able to carry 5 mines at a time.

Can we also adjust it so you can see your own team's mines? This case we don't accidently all plant multiple mines at the same spot jsut be to sett of by 1 enemy.

Naw, I don't like the idea of mines. Throw a ton on the flag, no fun.

The mines blowing up after 45 seconds or so is stupid, because then they aren't proximity mines anymore, are they? Proximity mines blow when someone/something gets to close to them. Having them blow up after 45 seconds is juse plain silly.

no, he means (i think) that they are there and blow up, but if they aren't detonated after 45 seconds, they blow

sounds terrible. any proximity weapon, since so powerful, should remain lifelike and actually take time to plant and all. but this wont happen and is therefore a lame idea. i hate it and hope it never comes to be reality...

heh... the mines would have to be planted in right places, coz ppl mostly jump all the time. ; )

have special polygons that accept mines/blow up mines/not accept mines

You people seem not to know the soldat clan scene, have you ever even played a clan war ? this would not be playable...

If there had to be special polys to plant, then we have to rebuild all the maps in the game.

Yea, I would like this a lot since you can put those mines in places soldiers frequently move or if in CTF you could place some near your flag xD
I like this idea!

I approve of this only if it's added in weapon mods, so you can make a minigun mine layer and turn the map into a death pit.

NO MINES!!! it would suck for a 2d game.

and what the hell is with all these dragons, dragon tamer dragonslayer and now dragonreborn

Lay 3 mines on spawn points, flag areas, and on healthpacks in your enemy's base. GG no re.

Why it would suck on Soldat? I think it's great.
