But I thought I might as well post them.

In the video you can see the mine despawns after the explosion.

Think the design is pretty neat for indoor, somewhat concealed but still visible due the lightning but not to bright, good balance it seems.

I liked the visibility of the originals. The new ones seems to blend in too much. But I suppose that can be overcome as you learn to recognize them over time.

They could be bright pink blobs and you probably still wouldn't notice them when theres tons of other people distracting you

Notes to self:

1) Carry Jammer Grenades or equivalent at all times.

2) Never enter a building first.

Honestly, I'm not particularly enthusiastic about how mines look and play right now. In almost every fps I have played, indoor mines are usually not very fun, and are frequently abused by campers. Like you guys, I saw them before Hamma dies in the footage, but the positioning of the mines is such that I am really worried that they could be too powerful. Hopefully there are some shoot through cover mechanics, a better way to detect mines, or some vulnerability in the proximity sensors. Otherwise, this will be child's play to abuse and extremely frustrating to deal with.

There is a question, are jammers even in?
