One of my favorite places to plant is in the courtyard on fishhook, in the shadow of the tree. People usually dont expect blowing up while walking in the open, itll get em every time.

Ya i love that spot too. Also in the grass at the top of the tunnel and inside the front boathouse door. I like them on the cobblestone back path also!

I put mines out in random spots that you wouldn't think there would be a mine there. If you put one in the doorways some moron will come and run right over them even if they are clearly seen. I HATE when I run in a door an the mine is beside it and I run the opposite way and it blows up and kills me. Pine Mines should only blow when walked over not when you come close to them. Lag also wrecks mines because people run RIGHT OVER them and do not die. I also hate mines because you put them down call them out 50 million times an you will still have that idiot on your team that runs over them or the idiot on your team that puts them down and doesn't call them out I HATE that. Mines do come in handy holding a place down all by yourself tho.

Or you can NOT be a fool and put hostages on Hold Position near a mine, because all the SEAL has to do is grab em and run backwards, boom, hostage(s) run over your mine, youre minus on points, and you can lose, not a good plan.


When you are planting a mine, if you want it in some specific spot, when you plant it, look on the ground, as you plant it, if you move your guy WITH RIGHT ANALOG, he turns around or w/e and you can place the mine in a precise spot. So say you want it right on a specific tile, then while you plant, if you know you're off a little to the right, while your d00d plants it, turns your right analog to the left a little.
lol...what big red said was just plain funny. Must have been playing with noobs the entire time. Well played otter.

The Mine in the dead body trick

Is not only good strategy, but it's funny! Stick 'em on the respawn ramp in frostfire if your a terrorist is a good one. But call it out twice and make sure your not standing in the way of your exiting teammates.

A few good places in Enowapi: Open the gate & mine the bridge. They can be pretty tough to see.
Jump down the back ledge and put them in the brush there. Have someone let you back in.
On the raised portion of the base (the upper part by the ladder hut) - put them in all the foliage where a terrorist sniper would usually lay. The first thing the Seals do when they breach is run around up there looking for the prone terrorists hiding in the brush.
Also, same with the foliage in the middle by the basement ramp.
You should: #1) Make sure your teamates know not to run through the brush in the base and #2) change this up every round or so, because they'll eventually start to 'nade the spots.

Nah, i understand wut u wer saying, and its true if u put the hostages right next to them, but i wuz thinking specifically of fish-hook. If you put the mine in the door or at the base of the stairs, and then put the hostages along the wall near the door/ along the railing above the stairs, the blast from the mine or nade will blow them away.

I think the best modes for mines are breaches. When you kill the guy with the bomb, place on on the bomb.
