BF2S Forums When, OH When are E.A. Going to get rid of the DAMN claymores?

fe.lep, you are not playing the game right, you're letting the game play you..use a freaking engineer with some buddies.. it works .. I've done it many times. Personally I think EA should give points to the Engy for wrenching up clays/mines. I've taken the TV and Palace with Engy, Medic and Support... the sniper aint shit with his wimpy pistol against a Jack, G36E and a PKM, just us 3 we took out a couple brutes and snipers that kept spawning at the palace like retards running a race backwards.

fe.lep it seems the only post u have not responded too is my post about ur ammo bag statpadding......

As its not related to the topic and quite honestly childish in its approach I ignored it. Im not here to get into a flame war with idiots or discuss unrelated topics.

You followed it up with

"NO...the claymore needs no adjusting! no-one agrees with you ok so shut up now - statpadder"

just to confirm my assumption.

My stats just mean I put down more ammo than you, Report them to E.A. if u wish. I will still be here with the same stats next week.



Anyway, Work done for the day, Enjoy the topic.

OKay this is going nowhere.

I think hes got some VERY valid points, The Claymores are destroying SF. They need to fix this

By the time noobs are done bitching about every weapon in the game we will all be running around with foam bats like in anger management. Then those will get nerfed and well all be reduced to bitch slapping.

The only valid solution to claymore whores is to allow frendly fire on them. I use claymore quite a lot even if I do not get a lot of kills out of them. But by allowing frendly fire beleive me I would be very carefull. Very few servers actualy are set that way. Good thing they advertise it otherwise I would be kicked all the time. I hate TK look at my specs.

I wounder why so few servers actualy allow frendly fire? This includes mines as well.

I don't understand how you're dying so much from claymore especially in Special Forces and especially with an assault kit.  Use your damn grappling hook to get up to the TV Station!  They usually put the claymore at the ladder.

Have medics around to revive you.  And no they won't get blasted by another claymore if they fall back.  Any claymores that are detonated will detonate nearby claymores by the concussive blast.  Try taking out the sniper before he lays another mine.

Another option is to go and cap another flag.  That will increase ticket drain on their side forcing them to come to you.  So defend and rack up some of those "unskillful kills" yourself.  All the flags can't be claymored.  If they are, then there should be a few easy kills for you as snipers really don't have close quarters combat abilities.

If you have a full squad rushing a flag with two medics in that squad you shouldn't have too much trouble getting it.  One guy is the meat shield that takes it for the team, the medic revives him, and he gets blown again, revive, blown, revive. Meanwhile your other squad members are clearing out the area.  With 3 or 4 guys still alive and the dead ones spawning on he squad leader you should be able to cap the flag within seconds. Then set up camp and return the favour.

I thought engineers could deactivate mines AND claymores. Just make sure you're standing on the right side. Ok, no more whining....

Hate to say it, but you have facts wrong there.  He has died 65 times while HOLDING claymores, not FROM claymores.  Which means he is a hypocrite because you have to have a claymore out a lot to be killed 65 times with it as your active weapon.  I always place some in Karkand to cover myself at the start of a round, when I snipe, and as you can see in my stats I've only been killed 3 times with it out.  I use them as they were meant to be used, as defensive protection against people wanting to knife my ass.  To have been killed 65 times with claymores out means -fe.lep- must use them offensively.  A good tactic, but you don't do that and then bitch about claymores being overpowered.

...you sure?  If this were true I'd a quite a lot FEWER knife deaths and more defib deaths

You folks whine too damn much. Snipers need claymores. Tired of getting ass handed to them by them? Be a little more watchful. You pansy.

Mmm..I kinda agree, BUT I think the AP mines should work like they did it ET.  As in, you step on it and it doesn't blow until you get off.  They DO still make those, right?? 

Holly shit! You actually can. Unbelievable. You learn somethin new every day.

Ya know, -fe.lep- started this thread to complain that the Claymore is a "cheap" and "skilless" weapon.

But I look at his stats and see that his favorite weapon is the Grenade Launcher, and his favorite vehicle is the Tank.  What other weapons in BF2 are cheaper and skilless than the Tank and Noob-tube?


I can imagin this being the thread title of one of -fe.lep-'s future threads---> "EA, I jumped off the top of a building on a BF2 map, I didn't open my parachute and I hit the ground and died. Take gravity out of BF2 !!!"
