icon that pops up? what is it?

Both friendly and enemy mines set it off I think.

I think it's only friendly ones. Which is kinda pointless, because - unlike in earlier games of the Battlefield series - the friendly ones don't harm you. :shakehead:

If you dont want to see them, hit your ALT key. Of course, I like the heads up.

Not just mines, Explosives in general. It can be APMs, RDX or Motion Mines

It means there's mines in the area. Both friendly and enemy mines set it off I think.

Ive been trying to figure out what this thing is or what it means. Ill post a screenshot of it. Thanks, Its the skull and cross bone thing.
