mine tips...

[TheExecution]

For some odd reason this game is biased and you can die walking around a mine.. this givess people a big advantage using mines. Yet they still only seem to work 30% because of lag or other usual lame reasons.

You probably already know some of these, please feel free to add your tricks.

A common one is putting mines behind a door frame..so they are not as visuable to the enemy eye. Here is an example

ll'''''''''''''ll
ll--------ll <---door frame
ll--------ll
ll--------ll
ll--------ll
ll--------ll....................
0 <--------mine





Also you can put them at corners on buildings..the enemy cant see them and when he turns the corner..dead.

Just try hiding mines and not making them visable to the enemy. Hiding them in bushes, shadows ect. Just make sure you call them out on friendly fire.

Nah, the best part is:


ll'''''''''''''ll
ll--------ll <---door frame
ll--------ll
ll--------ll
ll--------ll
ll--------ll....................
0 <--------mine

But when the door opens, it triggers the mine and blows the guy 5 feet backward. Always a classical sight to catch on a video.

One of the best spots to put mines is on the dead bodies, you can barley see them and tons of people just run right over the dead !

[sharpshooter29]

The best spot is to put the mines on dead people.

The best spot to plant mines are in places that people would not think they would be or on dead people. I also think it's good to plant them in bushes or dark areas.

i plant mines on the bomb on breach. sometimes when a seal is in a rush they wont be thinking and just rush to get the bomb...BOOM!

heres the thing with the mines.95% of the ppl playin by now know the "spots" that most ppl use. always SWITCH up wher eyou put your mines from round to round if they are hittin them unless theres just that one place that they keep steppin on (the key is never give the other team credit for being smart or communicating cause generally ppl wont call out where they stepped on a mine or where one is when they ran by it) and will allow other idots to step on it.

key placews are before mentioned, right inside doorways. whereever good dark shadow areas are. and if its a place that is usually mined place them a lil off where they sit so they will see theres none at the "usual" place and roll by right into the real place you put them.also when layin mines try and have a mine buddy, coordinate wher eyou put them so each of yalls mines cover the other.they might miss yours and hit his, vice versa.

also use the stages to your advantage, some or more suited for mines than others.if your on a stage with alot of nice mine spots PLACE them damit!!!! nothin pisses me off more then liek on crossroads or something and am only one laying mines out of 8 ppl. if theres an 8 man team and the level is more mine friendly there should be no less than 3 ppl layin them.MINES ARE YOUR FRIENDS damnit!;) also they are great warnings to let you know an enemy is near if he blows them up.they arent always a gauranteed kill but sometimes just them blowing them up and lettin you get the drop on them or catching them tryin to blow one up gets you the kill.


AND KEY IS ALWAYS CALL YOUR MOTHAFUKIN MINES OUT!!! AND IF YOU DONT HAVE A HEADSET DONT PLANT ANY!!!!

(was in caps for the "special" ppl who do stupid shyt liek that :P

LuFeng I agree with the not calling your mines out stepping on your own teams mine is a motha.

The best place to put mines in rescue missions is in a very open spot, but with no room for the seal to run by. MAKE SURE IT IS VISIBLE AND NEAR A CORNER OR WALL. Then, put the hostages near the mine, but out of sight, so when the seal thorws a nade to blow the mine, poof, the hostages are dead and you win!

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.
