Rexinator Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Happens now and then, but if a Landmine Kill Award will be out, it will happen more often. The times some engy walk over a mine is usually not on purpose, with the award I assure you almost every engy will do it on purpose. If Landmine Award get implemented it will cause for a harder job for admins, rage between players and bad ethics in gameplay. I'm sorry but I gotta disagree with this statement. And please re read what you just typed. "The times some engy walk over a mine is usually not on purpose, with the award I assure you almost every engy will do it on purpose." No why would an engy step on their own mine on purpose? Or even an opposing teams mine? Just to get an award? I think not. I play engy religiously on our servers. I at no point am thinking about how many landmine frags I'm trying to rack up. I just lay em in the proper locations and they get triggered, then I lay some more down. It's just how it goes. I like the idea of an award for highest landmine fragger. I think all the other awards are kinda boring, especially the knife killer award (for obvious reasons stated above). Maybe we need a highest shotgun killer award too? Considering that you only get 6 shots in your barrel/clip and you gotta make every shot count with the shotty. Compared to the normal mg where you can just spray and pray. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since they will get the kill themself, therefore they trigger there teammates mine to replant with their own mine. Seing that on Silent and HC there are only 15 mines (give or take a few) the mines will go empty fast, so as people are people, they will trigger their teammates mines. With the Award people will think of how many mine kills they rack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuckun Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 All the 'problems' being listed here are invalidated by the fact that 95% of our players dont play for awards... In fact from what I see most of the clan dont even bother with them (personal choice, some people like awards, others just like to have fun and not concern themselves with awards - each to their own!) - so unless the server is going to announce 'ALL ENGINEERS - WE NOW HAVE A LANDMINE KILLS AWARD YOU CAN WIN BY SPAMMING LANDMINES!' then I highly doubt there's going to be any issues The only valid issue is that landmines arent a weapon everyone has like the knife etc.. So next it will be satchel award, dyno award, improvised demolition award etc.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Sumiko Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 The only valid issue is that landmines arent a weapon everyone has like the knife etc.. So next it will be satchel award, dyno award, improvised demolition award etc.. I'd have to disagree. Sure, ofc we could have those other awards too, but they'll never be as meaningful as a landmine award. Like I've said in my other post, only a good engi, most likely playing/defending the objective, and therefore helping his/her team, would get enough landmine kills to claim this award. An engi can't run around aimlessly the whole map and throw landmines at enemies and hope to get a kill. So imo the award would actually be earned by that engi and would have different meaning than a knife, satchel, dyno or imp. demolition award. For these award people won't play the map nor will they help their team - they'd be playing only for the award. They'll be playing out of character by running around with those said weapons out during the whole map and hope for a lucky stab or quick enough satchel detonation while suffering a many death in the process, or, go camp bots on an empty server. So, imo, not exactly comparable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
