The warning sound for proximity mines needs to go. Its allready easy enough to spot them if you pay attention but this makes it even worse by alerting the driver to not move any further. In my opinion a passive explosive scanner module should do the job and not be a inbuilt feature.

Explosive detector ???? Not really necessary when you can clearly see the PE Explosive traps are easy to avoid, you hardly need a detector as well ...
I didn't realize that PE made that sound until recently..... It's not good , there is already an impossible task of AV And while HAV's stack hardeners .... We get mines that don't detonate correctly and make a warning sound
To implement a detector, when you could just use your eyes is pointless...

Equip a scanner.
Yes, 20,000 years in the future, advances in technology made it necessary for mines to have sound.

Cant use a scanner in a vehicle, vehicle scanners do not pick up RE/Proxy mines either
Also my HAV makes mines make a sound by calling out there names

Meh. Unless you're moving at a snail's pace, it's usually already too late once you hear the beeping. Your momentum has sealed your fate.

What is actually the detection range of the tank when it notices the mines? I don't use a tank so I don't know.
Another: (and this one is stupid) Does the vehicle need to have physical contact to the proximity mines before they explode?
But I agree with the OP. Get rid of the sound. It would be nice to once get a tank with proximities.
There's two-fold problem with them:
HAV's detect them too easily. LAV's run over them too fast.

There's two-fold problem with them:
HAV's detect them too easily. LAV's run over them too fast. it can vary sometimes around 20-30m away and you will hear warning and no you don't have to make contact as sometimes they will indeed go off from you just being near them |

You didn't say that orginally, you said that you could put on your suit. not you could put on your suit and use in your vehicle.
And no you can't have that, work with your infantry like a good little tanker.

Once again, this obviously going to take time. 1) You did not ask for that 2) That completly negates the whole point of removing the sound in the first place how easy do you want it? 3) If you actually particpated in team work with friendly infantry it wouldn't be a problem.

Add explosives detector to pilot suit
Pilot suit gets in vehicle and becomes one with the vehicle
Now on the HUD it highlights where explosives are to you and anyone else in the vehicle

Wow.. I liked a Red Star post...
But, Yea, once the pilot suit comes out, explosives detectors would be a logical addition, though it could be a handy piece of equipment for infantry as well, though remotes on objectives are pretty simple to see, usually.
Of course, I'm assuming you mean within a certain radius, not just in general when you say it shows them on the HUD.

So now we have to show you exactly where our traps are, bloody hell, I didn't think anyone could want it any easier. How about no, instead improve PE to 2shot all tanks without having stack 72 RE's nearby, which are easily visible.

Were tanks easy to blow up in MAG? Yes? That's why.

It was an APC not a tank
You couldnt improve it in any way either
But you could improve your AV such as with the RPG
Also if you had PL/OIC and was a damn good driver like me you could keep it alive all game and get over 100 kill assists with it or keep the target vehicle alive in acq until the gate went down
Good times
I do this in DUST but now its OP :(

So you had a troop transport, thats different. If we had MAV's I'd expect them to come with countermeasures like dropships(MAAV's) should have. This is because they aren't offensive vehicles therefore the threat is not the vehicle itself, but what it carries.
And APC is near pointless if it isn't dropping of troops.

But you forget 1 very important thing and that is that this is dust not mag and also you couldn't build fittings as well on mag as you can on dust and your vehicles didn't cost you game money to use which in dust it does and by the way saying you want PE's to 2 shot tanks is wanting to make tank killing easier than for us to have a warning system that alot of the time doens't even work until it's too late but then again most of you might not even know that |

Not true with Remotes (unless hot fixed in past two weeks). I'm not sure about PE's, but probably the same. They last until destroyed, regardless of suit changes.

But on my person i had an explosives detector which highlighted mines and also claymores when i was in the vehicle
So why not on my pilot suit?
