EMP-Mine Update

No more damage

It functions just fine...EMP is just doing it's job.

 

Guys, guys, guys.. forget the spearhead ability stuff, all i'm saying is that I find it pretty annoying that the mines activate on uncloaked players. You spend time trying to create a minefield then it gets overrun by your own company.

And btw, I don't see how any of you guys can have such a good use of it. 19/20 hunting players will not go hunting with just 1 cloak. You got a 10 pack, or a 50 pack. You cloak up right away if you have to. I don't get why making EMP-mines only work vs cloaked players would be a such a bad idea, THEY ONLY AFFECT CLOAKED PLAYERS ANYWAYS xD

The mine is good as it is, nvm about the sub-abilitie. But make the d*mn sh*t reliable. Mines are SUPER EASY to juke. SUPER EASY. You need a ton of them, then some uncloaked newbs comes and runs all over them.

 

Unless the noob is doing it on purpose, can't see how someone will accidentally go over all of the EMP mines.

Like i mentioned earlier, I use the EMP mines mainly during cubes. Regardless of how many cloaks the enemy has, once they're uncloaked they can choose to waste an EMP (the standard EMP) and recloak without being locked or they can waste a cloak in the meantime they'll have been locked.

Put yourself in their shoes, players cubing, you're hunting cloaked, suddenly a flash appears and you're uncloaked. Pretty sure you'd get locked left right and centre.
It's about the element of surprise. Travelling in one direction can sometimes lead to one failing to avoid an emp mine in the path. It's happened countless times to me and to many players i've seen.

Lastly, i remember when bp were generous and gave out loads of emp mines in event boxes months ago. Loads of players started complaining on chat about the emp mines causing them grief because noobs were placing them randomly in maps. bye bye cloak.

 

Global America 1, the server of the biggest (Insert Mean Word). They will de-cloak you if, even though they know you're their own company and they will waste your cloak mines, plus people send in friends to take out mines on enemies bases while the base can't shoot them being the same company.

 

hahaha man i feel so good laughing leave me alone specially cuz ur jelouse im hitting that
SO FRESH! DREAM ENVY ME!
YES U WANT IT! U WANT IT!
BUT U JUST CANT HAVE IT "N" HAHAHAHAH

 

Nah i have my limits kid lol don't drag me into this.

 

ah fair point.
I still think using it during cubes is the best time. Perhaps use it during icys aswell.

 

Sorry, but still no.

If you want to uncloak enemy next to you, just drive on it your self, or don't move when you land it, and enemy turns visible, when it explodes.

If thing you suggest would be implemented, this wouldn't be possible to do anymore, and i think its pretty good trick.​

 

Finally a valid point. I rest my case. Though I still won't bother using EMP mines as I think they're sh*t. By the time the enemy runs over an EMP mine or by the time I place one and let it detonate on myself, he lands the first 200k burst or leaves the area. GG

 

Thanks for an honest reply, but I cloak faster than u lock me. I press a key, you need to press my ship on the map. Anyways like I said before I rest my case, I don't bother so much about this mine, if you find use of it I'm glad for you. I don't.

 

A weapon is a weapon. They have it in stock - they use it.

 

excuse me "kid"? -.- look whos talking your so old -.- -.- -.- -.-

 

It would be nice if you could stop the immature insults as it gets annoying seeing your insults as I read through the forums Also go ahead and slam me for commenting on a thread and not being productive towards the OP's thread, but hey, sometimes someone has to be "That person" and be an enemy and point out someone's annoying, negative and unnecessary actions and tell them to stop.

 

Nooo, they things should stay as they're seeing as they do their job perfectly. You don't know how annoying those mines can be, especially once you cloak up, leave port, only to be de-cloaked again, by some noob who set of the mine -.-.

Also, they come in handy, during cubing, and during cbs actions

 

You can "tell" me to stop, but doesn't mean i have to, if you scrubs feel that insulted from the "nicer" "insults" i dish out, then you need some help.

 

cmon people, don't feel insulted by being called a noob. It's not soooo offensive...

But anyway, as many people have pointed out, the EMP-mine has it's many uses.
Close thread?

 

I made this thread as I thought this mine was garbage and needed rework. Seems I was wrong, most of you fellows find use of this mine and that's all that matters. No need to change what already works. You may close this thread ^^

(still think the mine is pure Sh*t though, you aint gonna win that argument)

 

Note: The thread will be re-opened only if the OP requests for it.

Enjoy the game.

Closing due to inactivity.
