Claymores

Why don't we have claymores in the game, or can they be unlocked?

Re: Claymores

They are not part of the game. Maybe everyone at DICE was tired of them.

Yeah, ah well

Re: Claymores

I was kinda surprised there were none, but if you think about the mortar strikes and claymores and all the weapon options have, Recon would be a bit overpowered.

Re: Claymores

Yeah, well that's true, I just unlocked the mortar strike yesterday, I usually play Engineer

I was overjoyed when I found out there would be no claymores in BC2

Re: Claymores

I too was bummed when I discovered they weren't in the game. But after playing for a couple of months now, I can see where they would be a bit too powerful given all of the buildings that are enterable. Think about it, a couple of recons could pretty much lock down an objective.

Re: Claymores

Claymore/APM will be huge annoy in this game. The maps are too small to accomodate Claymore/APM. Lke Rafterman said, it will easily kill Rush mode in favor of the defenders. Those were huge annoyance in BF2/2142, and it's good that there is none in BC2.

Re: Claymores

I think they would have been great if they were like the real thing instead of proximity mines. A Claymore with a clicker would be awesome. Especially when you are a defender. But we can use C4 in the same way.

Re: Claymores

I'm glad they were removed and hope they never come back in any way, shape or form.

I wish they had claymores, it would be helpful for us snipers...

It can be used with tripwire type fuzes.

This.

Re: Claymores

The maps are so small, and with so much chaos already going on, claymores would just pile onto the annoyance factor.
