et server suggestion Increase Mine limit/allow creators chance to walk over them?

[F257]

Would it be possible to increase the limit to 50? I think,for the size of the server and the limited number of players, 100 would be too much for some, but 50 i think would be nice. Also, not being able to walk over your own mines is slightly pesky, particulary if you've boxed yourself in a corner or up to a wall. Any chance of getting this form of suicide off?

Welcome to the forums.

 

I would like to know which mode you are asking for? ETPUB or Jaymod?

 

1. Do you mean to say you want 50 mines instead of 25?

 

2. What you mean by size of the server and limit number of players?

 

You are not allowed to walk on your mine because you can see where you have planted your mine. If you are in the corner you can always use sprint + jump and get out of the corner alive.

 

Suppose, if we enable that thing somehow then image Axis engineer planting mines all over the entrance of objective place and it would be way hard for allies.

 

Thanks for the suggestion.

Thank you

Jaymod - ain't checked out ETPUB yet (mainly because the map rotation dosen't excite me so )

Yes Indeede

Jaymod is 32 players max (looking at SL here; dunno if they're all public slots or if you have some private ones). That means 16 players max per team. Although i would like 100 mines, i know for some that having 100 mines to look out for when there are only 16 of you - and at least a quarter of your team most unlikely unable to see the mines - can be a bit frustating. For a bigger server - says 64 - 100 would be fine. Lots of players, lots of opportunity to use them. More attackers means you need to defend more so you deploy more landmines. With less players, it can seem OTT

Isin't the point of landmines to make it hard for allies I mean, you're going to want to plant landmines in front of a door or around a tank etc, not in an alcove and hope they blunder their way into there. I usually wend up /kill myself to get out.

That really does not compute,sorry. Why would not see your own landmines

 

 

Thanks for the suggestion.

hold on here allies get just as many landmines - the point is for engis on both sides to slaughter people who can't spot mines and to generally make walking around difficult for everyone =p

 

100 mines is a bit much.. give half the people that play ET 100 mines and 80 of them will never get stepped on. IMO 25 is super-generous as it is, if you know where to put them to be effective you can get 30 mine kills on either team without needing 100 mines.

I think that 50 its too much but 25 is perfect

[Knifetwister]

I think that on big maps you could add like 5 or 10 mines. But for smaller maps, you keep it the way it is.

 

Just giving my 2 cents.
