If your remote explosive kills a teammate you are held accountable for it.

If your remote explosive kills a teammate you are held accountable for it. too lazy to fix it eh? well its not the first time you guys messed something up... Why change it? It is an explosive like the grenade, no longer can you detonate it blindfolded but have to stay close to the objective. You have the passive scanner as scout and can easily see if blue dots are close by before you detonate the RE.We should just be glad proximity mines to not explode when a friendly drives over them or that blue dots cannot* shoot and detonate your RE. At least I presume this is the case as you cannot target blue vehicles with AV grenades and swarmers. I intent to continue using REs in FW. But will be a little more careful now before detonating them.
You don't need passive scanning upgrades to see friendlies and this is more about the RE getting shot by the enemy or an idiot blue and killing an ally.

This is only one of the REs uses, it's also ment to be taking out hostile armor and installations, hence the term 'demolition'.

hell if it's a squad of troll dots they could get me kicked in one organized genecide
if friendlies could not break equipment then perhaps it would be fine. Are you sure team members can shoot blue REs? Is this possible in PC matches? I would assume a team member would not be able to punch or shoot your RE to detonate it. In the same way as team AV grenades will not target team vehicles. If a team member can in fact detonate my RE's I will switch equipment until my standing is high enough to survive a few suicide griefers getting blown up.
Yes it's possible, and rather deadly.

Thank you for the update, I think you just saved me an unpleasant ban in the first few days after 1.7 is deployed.
Glad to be of help.
(I was gonna say 'glad to be of service' but I'm sure some Amarr/Ammatar scum would've immediately jumped my rod lol.)
