Now you can't blow up claymore with grenade... THAT IS SO STUPID AND FREAKING BLOWS the spirit of Battlefield 2. If like playing a game in Warlord or Sharqi Peninsula. You can't pass by a certain spot if there is a claymore on it. That is so freaking stupid. I was playing a game in Sharqi Peninsula and I was taking out some enemies on hotel roof and I entered building inside. I was locked inside the building when the enemy put claymore on both roof and entrance exit,was totally ****ed. Put claymore as it is. IT IS SO STUPID NOT BEING ABLE TO BLOW CLAYMORE WITH NADES. It totally screw the gameplay in Palace of Warlord. You can't enter this enter that and the distance of claymore is moronic also. I got blown up 2 metre in front of claymore and I think it feels unrealistic. When one is sprinting it gave no chance for one to stop before the claymore blows up... I mean you see claymore as soon as it is in front of you and by the time you discover it, you are gone..I don't know ... But i feel the new claymore totally screw up infantry gameplay by limiting some infantry access route.

Re: Claymore is so stupid!
That does make sense. They maybe should have left Claymores alone and allowed them to be blown by C4 or 'nades. They would be affected by these things in the real world anyway. -
Re: Claymore is so stupid!
Ok deep breath...
But seriously, I think you do have a point. While "locking" someone in a bunker with a claymore sounds hilarious. Yea, thats kinda lame.Comment

Yeah it's pretty stupid. I enjoyed using them for suicides.Comment

Re: Claymore is so stupid!
Combined with not being able to jump and shoot, and noob toobs ineffective as you round the corner, you can't do much about them getting it down.
Once its down, you have no way to blow it up. If you have a squad behind you, it will wipe most of them out.
There is currently NO counter to them in BF2 or SF infantry CQC.
The palace on warlord was so much fun, and now has snipers running rampant in a Close Quarters Combat map.
This is the perfect example of overcompensating changes to suit people who aren't happy with needing a degree of skill and whine on the forums that "(insert vehicle/weapon/kit) owns me hard sometimes, and i should be able to own everything" instead of thinking through the proposed changes logically.Comment

Re: Claymore is so stupid!
Im spamming all my claymores and Mines everywere and anywere now and totaly cutting off roads to flags and alley ways and door ways. Thats what Dice wants thats what Ill do.
I found it great to day to lay mines all around the road I was sitting back and firing from with my tank. As soon as a rival tank would chase me, theyd end up riding over the mines I set under myself or behidn me.
With claymores, heck and CQC maps just drop them in high traffic alleys now, 2 snipers and 2 engies can cut off alleys and roads at first map on Karkland if done right..
I guess to deal with idots who cant tell that red skulls are bad, they had to dumb the game down to there idot level those people operated on.Comment

Re: Claymore is so stupid!
YEAH.. I was playing Warlord just now. THE COMBAT IN THE PALACE IS SCREWED UP. The opposing team is massing claymores in the palace and THEY FREAKING DON'T get penalty for that by disabling claymore friendly fire. I mean HOW CAN one engage in firefight if claymore is everywhere in the Palace? You want to capture flag yet your access is blocked..It is freak! TEAMMATE passing over claymore don't get blown up? WTF? WHILE ENEMY passing claymore in front just 2 metres get blown up,it is stupid.Comment

Re: Claymore is so stupid!
So its stupid and totaly ruins your bf2.
I think that you need to broaden your style of gameplay just a little if something like this is ****ing you off

Re: Claymore is so stupid!
I was hopeing that they featured they "pick up" (all) explosives on the engy class only...this would solve some issues....maybe in the next one...it's laggy enough as it is!!!!:)Comment

Re: Claymore is so stupid!
Allright I have to be honest. I play Warlord mostly and I pretty love the CQB inside the palace. The new claymore is totally screwing up the battle inside the Palace. That's just about it, in playing other maps it doesn't affects me that much. Just I think it is unfair you can't access some place to take out sniper in a roof top. Limiting access IMO just ruin the gameplay. You know for a FPS game where infantries are moving around, don't you think limiting access will ruin the gameplay? IMO claymore function is to blow up someone unnoticed not block access.Comment

Re: Claymore is so stupid!
Isn't FF on mines and Claymores server controlled.
What you describe does sound like a problem. Perhaps server admins will start adjusting for this.Comment

Re: Claymore is so stupid!
Its decided..all squads and teams have to have the designated suisidal claymore detonator. Thsi new players goal is to jump on claymores to open up alleys and such.
Think about 3 snipers claymoring a path to a flag...you now can totaly insure no one gets close to a flag on foot without some one to take a death.
basically going sniper know means if you have access to an area heavy traveled and have time to pop your claymores out in that area you are guarateed 1 or 2 kills.Comment

Re: Claymore is so stupid!
what i love is mines/claymores used to be unaffected by explosives..then 1.03 or whatever came along and changed it so you could blow them up with explosives...then they changed it back again? Wtf? make up your minds!!Comment

Re: Claymore is so stupid!
I noticed today that some snipers were going crazy with setting claymores everyone on the Karkand map I was on..
So I have a question.. Does the claymore only blow up if an enemy passes by and not a teammate?Comment

Re: Claymore is so stupid!
Im positive EA and Dice decided were all to much a pack of morons..
So they gave us better weapons and noob-proof tools.
Now anyone can drop explosives and get kills, no one needs to worry about the in-effective accuracy of the gun compared to there dmg, and anyone and there mother can when a dog fight if they get behind you.Comment
