*APM = Anti-Personnel Mines.  APM mines = silly/redundant
(see also PIN numbers and ATM machines)

They need to be destroyable by blasters.

And you people need to stop putting them near freindly CPs.

I know you are thinking "oh but its for defense." Well too bad, you ARE going to kill more friendlies than enemies if you place them WHERE ALLIES ARE SPAWNING. Put them farther away and your teammates will be more aware of their surroundings and they will spot your mines easier. If you insist on placing them near friendly CPs I will punish you every time I accidentally run into one. It is overall YOUR FAULT if you place them so close to the spawn points to where people aren't aware of them  fast enough and they take less than 20 steps and KABOOM. And I could care less about your "justifications" of putting them near CPs. But frankly I dont wan't to hear it, you are hindering your teams advancements.

Now if you are placing them a pretty far distance out from CPs and your teammates are no where near danger, I don't mind at all, its their fault usually.

I put them in areas where the ENEMY WILL move through, but theres allways a random retarded friendly who runs blindly over it then punishes. Also I often see people stop a distance away look at the mine then continue on, BOOM punsish.......F*********************CATS ON*******SPONGE..............RETARDED **********BAS*******..............

"Ohh, what's that up ahead, a red X. No matter keep going, BOOM! Son of a biatch. I'll punish that  stupid jerk. Hmm, that'll teach him to put a prox mine near a cap point. Oh, another red X, BOOM! What the hell. These people better quit throwing these things in strategic locations. Punish him too, that'll teach him. Ohh, whats that, a red X? BOOM!.........ect"

I quit using them because people juts run into, boom and punish. Shame, as they are a incredibly useful.

Sad but true, I don't put them right where people spawn, but people still run into them.......maybe it's because their used to claymores being on the ground, and so are puzzled when their on a wall (where I always put them).

On a side note to the thread starter: Idk why, but your avatar creeps me the hell out.

Actuly on ranked, clan matches APM"s Team kill so ya

Never have that problem and I only play ranked.

Also there are several ways to get around APM mines in 2142 (walking, crouching, proning or deactivating them).   APM mines in FS are un beatable, someone has to run into them inorder to get rid of them.

I always forgive team kills myself, unless I know someone deliberately killed me. Which they never seem to do.

yeah i do too but there seems to be alot of people with bad aim on fs servers. Do i look like a freaking storm trooper if i have no white on.

With respect, I think the item selection bar needs to feature names of weaponry and items, like that of PR. FS has lots of new items that are not exactly intuitive, and like it or not, very few people read documentation before playing.

Rant over...:)

vote kick the tossers ...ooops that slipped out

I've probably racked up more TK's in a round than frags due to loosers punishing me for walking into their own teams mines.
I've never punished anyone for blundering into a mine, it's MY FAULT !!

Surely this can be ironed out, it doesn't happen with the APM's in 2142.

Darth Vader never really choked out a rebel trooper on the cruiser in episode III, all the rebels had actually killed each other with their own mines, the empire took the ship becouse no other rebels could spawn, thay had all punished each other for TK's and no one else was left in the server !!

Oh, by the way Devs, congratulations, cracking mod !
