The Claymore-spammers on Karkand are just the same lame kind of players like the medic-whores and grenade-spammers.Luckily the übergay C4-tossers are gone.
I used claymores too in high traffic areas,but I got my veteran explosives and the good conduct medal in the same round on Karkand with FF ON!So don't talk about no-skill-easy-kill-weapon.
Now that I got my expert explosives for some time now claymores are just tools of the trade.
I use them for flag defence or try to lure people in it when I'm in a close combat-situation.But I don't do this jihadstyle-claymoring,my claymores are always already placed when somebody chases me.
And no,claymores shouldn't be destroyable by grenades,everybody would just nadespam like crazy before entering a building or turning a corner.And if one clay blows up there's a frickin' chainreaction which detonates every claymore or at-mine in the vicinity -> mines become useless again.
All the claymore-whiners want an easy solution where they don't have to use their brain,except for:claymore -> throw nades.
I've posted so many ideas which would make the claymore-spamming impossible and gives the attacker a very good chance to avoid a clay.
Such as:
Longer setup time for claymores.Claymores need to be actually set,just not thrown on the ground.This takes out the spamming and forces snipers to place them more tactically.
Ability to spot and mark claymores as a dot on the minimap and with colored smoke ingame.
Clicking noise and short delay when claymore is triggered so that the attacker has a chance to go prone and gets wounded but not killed.(You guys already get a friggin' big red skull on the right of your screen!!)
Ability to defuse claymores for every class,but more technique than just hurling a nade required.Something like go prone,crawl very,very slowly and when at the claymore some seconds for the actual defusing.
Claymores are primarily not intended to kill the enemy(nobody thinks that the enemy is as stupid as the common Karkandwhore),they are intended to SLOW DOWN the enemy.
And there's no slowing down the enemy when he just has to chuck grenades like crazy and keep charging!!
NO to "grenadeable" claymores!!!!
