    The New Bunny Hopper (C4 Trick)

    So, normally people dont share this kinda stuff publicly. I think that they like the edge they get from knowing little tricks that others dont. Well, I think that the following trick is so cheap that everyone should know how its done. I posted the following in my clan's forum.

    so normally, we are used to seeing someone bunny hop and use the m203. Well, yesterday, I found a new technique used with bunny hopping that is more whorish than ever. You may be surprised when I say it involves C4, but indeed it does. So this is what happens. You see a special forces kit bunny hopping towards you. He's holding C4. Hmmm, kinda odd. So you start shooting, etc. All of a sudden, he jump throws (to throw it farther) C4 at you. You take no heed. He still needs to switch to the detonator and you've got plenty of time to drop him before then. Well, to your surprise, the C4 blows up in mid air, killing you...and you are like, WTF!? What just happened? So you shrug it off. Well, then you notice that you are dying 24/7 from C4. An entire clan is bunny hopping and throwing C4 at you, detonating it prematurely. You are dying constantly and barely have any time to kill your attackers before you get C4'd...This is indeed one of the cheapest things ever, possibly more so than m203, because C4's area of affect is so much larger.

    Ok, so through research, I found out how to detonate C4 without going to your detonator. Weird right? So essentially, you can detonate any C4 at anytime after you throw it. Basically, once you throw the C4, press right click and then emmediatly left click to detonate it (i.e. right click then left click as fast as you can). You will not switch to your detonator (well you will for like, one frame). Your C4 will detonate and right after that you'll have another C4 in your hands.

    *edited so people wouldnt get confused. I had a notion that you detonated the C4 so quickly because when you throw your final C4, your detonator emmediatly comes out. But, through other forum responses to this post, I found out that you can detonate C4 emmediatly with any C4 pack you have, not just the last one*

    HAHA!! mate you've just solved that issue that has been ****in me off for ages!!! you are my hero!!! LOL i was trying it last night. When someone throws it at you usually you can drop him before he blows it up, But there are those times when it hits your face and blows it clean into the next world!!! Thanks man!!!
    I'm gonna get those ****in bunnies back now!!! Mwa haha!!

      Interesting, logical and completely smacktard.

      I sadly will in all likelyhood do that now when I try for Vet SF

        valid tactic imho.
        It is not any cheaper then to shoot some poor infantry grunt with a tank, or throw a nade into a pack of people... plus, he only has one C4 then rearms.
        If you get so close to him that he can throw C4 at you and detonate it killing you but not dying himself, then I think you must have done something seriously wrong...

            Sounds like a winner for my expert explosives if I ever get in the 100h as SF.

            Good thing I try not to let people get close enough for this to happen to me. I have not seen this as a problem. I guess if you play on the 24/7 city servers this would be, but I prefer the vehicles myself.

              Take solace.

              They're going to nerf C4 soon.

                Source? Quote? Link?

                I didn't even think they'd release another patch.

                  Played a Sharqi round last night, and there was a guy on MEC team (he was 1st in their team, of course) who would come close to you, drop C4 (on the ground, it was not mid-air detonation or anything), and detonate it. No bunny hopping. I'd die, he would not. Happened 3 times to me. I shot him though, 2-3 times before he could detonate. Guy had 26 kills and half of the tickets were not used yet. And he was almost at the knife-stabbing distance.

                  As usual, I attribute this to lag or his skill, since there are no hacks for BF2

                    What the hell is so whorish about it? I still can't believe some of you people. Quit creating your own little rules for how the game should be played. If you get your ass kicked by a guy throwing C4, adapt and overcome -- it's not an impossible tactic to defeat.

                    Don't forget that you're not the only person playing BF2. Some people play to kill, others play for points, others play to just to relax. Don't assume that everyone should obtain your gaming style just because you want to play your way.

                    Either purchase your own gaming server or wait until the realism mod is out. Otherwise, publicly saying this isnt a valid tactic isn't really going to change anything :-/

                      So, after getting owned and tired of BF2, I came back on after a break and tried to figure out how they were doing this. I threw the C4 and tried to switch to the detonator as soon as possible. Took forever to switch. There's no way you could blow the C4 in mid air at the rate. Then I got to my last C4. I threw it and my detonator emmediatly came out. OMG. Thats how they are doing it! So, here's the trick. You throw 4 (all but 1) of your C4 away and detonate them. When you throw your last C4, your detonator emmediatly comes out. There is no wait time. You could detonate the C4 right after it leaves your hand if you wanted to. So, now you can jump throw the C4 at people and detonate it in mid air, giving them no chance to escape. Well, you think that's fine right. They can only do it once. Well, here's where the teamwork comes in. Once you've thrown your last C4, you can A) go to a supply box and refill to 1 C4 or B) get a friendly clan member using the support kit to resupply you 1 C4 (i.e. he doesnt drop the supply blag, he just holds it till you get 1). And there you have it.

                      Nice work, there, Sherlock.

                      Too bad all you need to really do is press "right" then "left" mouse buttons in that order as fast as possible, and the C4 you just dumped out detonates immediately... Without having to WAIT SOO LONG for the detonator to appear!


                      Think of it like Goldeneye 64, you just had to press A + B buttons to detonate remote mines immediately.

                        easy to patch it up. just dont let it auto switch to detonator. same right clikc for detonater. easy fix.

                          why patch it.

                          that is like saying auto reload is unfair.



                          This is fine as far i am concerned. I have not yet experienced a tactic that i couldn't counter with a little thought so quite whinning and use your heads boys.

                            well said there, I couldnt have put it nicely.people using the code to the extreme, whats wrong with that? if you dont like it (and I HATE it) just adapt to their style. same way you adapt to expert bombers, or expert tankers etc.

                              This tactic, atleast the correct version, is as old as the demo. Leave it alone.
