Personelly i hat claymores. You are atleast 5 feet or more from them but somehow they explode. I hate the fact that to that mines arent universal killers and if your chasing a sniper and he runs over one it doesnt blow up but you stop a couple feet from it and jump backwards it somehow goes off.

I think claymores and tank mines should be lethal for both sides even if thier own team laid it down. It should not be a mec tank drives over a mec engies mine and it doesnt go off, but the us tank drivers it does. Ea needs to fix this

Check out the M18 Claymore in real life... it has a fatality zone of 50M or 150 feet. Also the claymores in Battlefield 2 are directional. Just learn how to get up behind it and you can pick them up with a wrench . http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/land … aymore.htm

I realize that you are new here, but if you would use the big huge search link above, you would find that this subject has been covered ad naseum. Perhaps you have something new to add to one of those discussions.

Are you new to the game? They used to be universal killers but there were many complaints about careless teammates running into friendly mines and claymores blowing themselves up and punishing. Even though it was clearly their fault. So that's why it is the way it is now; friendly fire is off on mines and claymore.

EA takes the easy way out on shit. Rather than taking off teamkilling by (running into friendly explosives/standing in front of a jet) they n00b every single fucking thing they get their hands on.

Its called "friendly fire". Some servers have it turned on, and other servers have it turned off.
i dont see how you could want friendly claymores to kill you! if you lay 2 claymores down....most likely....you will get a TK. and you will loose points! go to karkand 64 player. there are clays everywhere!!!!!!!

Calymores can be an irritant, but I spent many a round trying to get expert explosives with them and succeeded! I find them the best tool to protect a flag.

I think what he he is saying is, take Karkand, before you could run all the way up to the hotel with any claymores but now that FF is off on claymores they are everywhere, at one point last night I counted 20 of them in that patch alone ! The good old gun battle that was hotel is now just a sniper/medic/claymore/nade fest.

What really irritates me about claymores is that you can't detonate them with grenades anymore. I'm not an expert of every single weapon in the modern world, but I'm pretty sure that a hand grenade detonating next to a claymore is gonna do SOMETHING to it. Now that they have been changed, you can't destroy claymores that sit on ladders or the tops of stairs except by getting a face full of claymore and praying that there's a medic nearby or someone to follow through with your assault. I could, of course, be wrong.

BF2S Forums hate claymores, and mines should be universal deaths
