Most people here know that if C4 is placed on other C4 and the original detonates the one placed on the original gets removed.
I bit o a n00b tactic, I know, but if you cover the MCT with remote C4 the enemy has to place theirs on top of yours.
After they are done you can detonate your C4 and make theirs dissapear.
Anyone ever tried this?

lol, seems like a good idea if you know theres a big apc rush coming, but just having seems like a waste of the c4 limit. I know I've done that to myself alot with hitwire in the enemies building.

Hitwire? Scary!
Yes it does (unfortunately) add to your mine-limit.

But yeah it'd be kinda cool if it worked when a big apc rush came or something, lol. I'm sure the other team would have a tantrum. Of course you could just mine the entrances to make sure that they didn't get in in the first place.
|
Tantrums are more favourable.

Spamming whole shit load of Timed C4 seems more favourable, although with more deadly results.

...and while somebody's busy coating the MCT of the Bar/HoN with remotes, the proxies are mysteriously vanishing from the Ref!
If there were no mine limit, this tactic would actually work. In practice, all it does is make proper mining of the rest of the base more difficult. And for what? The attackers may well kill the owner of the remotes, causing them to go *poof.* Suddenly your MCT is uncovered and the back door to one of your structures isn't mined. Proximity mines don't vanish when their owner dies. They also are perfectly capable of detonating themselves if the person who placed them isn't in the area, and they don't time out and blow up at the wrong moment.
If you want the MCT defended, stay near it and use your explosives on the enemies trying to attack it- don't plant them on the terminal in the hopes that the attackers won't kill you first. There is no substitute for proper mining.
"Arms discourage and keep the invader and plunderer in awe, and preserve order in the world as well as property. Horrid mischief would ensue were (the law-abiding) deprived of the use of them." - Thomas Paine
Remember, kids: illiteracy is cool. If you took the time to read this, you are clearly a loser who will never get laid. You've been warned.

Sometimes usefull if you got only one building left. But then its maybe much more usefull to just mine up the building. So noone even gets near it,.
Thanks.

Supposedly grenades do the same damage to the exterior of buildings that (infantry) rockets do.

Rockets and grenades do less damage on MCT...less splash. =\

I thought the MCT wasn't affected by splash damage.

It's isn't, that's why covering a person in remotes and running against the MCT doesn't kill a building.
