Tripmines (archived by yourdog)

As u all noticed tripmines are disabled on BG.
on Vietnam they are enabled.

what do u guys think about this ?

[Butcher]

Good idea, Doggy!
I have been missing tripmines on BG for a long time? Why not try it, starting with 3 pieces?
In the meantime you can decrease their damage, if people do not seem to like it. In our experience people get very annoyed when they can be killed by one single mine, but a mines causing ca. 60 HP damage are still tolerated and still a nice additional defense tool.

PLEASEEEEE DO NOT ENABLE tripmines!

---

Most maps are created in such a way that on key points a mine can or cannot be placed. When you add tripmines there are more options to place these mines. What means you'll create a bonus for the defending team because you can protect your objective with tripmines where normally no regular mines can be placed.

Not a fan of tripmines. Most maps force the attacking team through a narrow passage in order to do the objective (or at least some part of it) and tripmines would just ruin all those narrow passages.

I guess the results of that poll is obvious. :P

Voted no, servers should be diffrent from each-other. :P

[Poseidon]

No tripmines please. They are so annoying. Ok and now: when will the server be renamed?

we try to inprove the server chris thats why there is a poll for it,
and so far bg is climbing the ladder, but thanks for your opinion

btw i also vote no i dont like those mines and like poseidon and djuk says it can unbalance the game

[Hani]

not fan of trip mines either

So voted no.

[optee]

I also voted no because I'm not really a fan.

Not only they can block narrow passages , on maps like adlernest and frostbite people may put them on documents that have to be stolen.
