I thought so too but apparently ppl still want to stir the pot

They already have a short arm time.

No need to erf them at all. I could see requiring lvl 3 weaponry instead of 2 before opening Demolitions. maybe make Demolition itself a higher multiplier.

No need to cry about them being OP though. They blow up in people face often enough. That and you only get 5 anyway.

If anything they need to make grenades more effective so people will use their grenades more often than RE. Why should someone throw a RE on the ground when they could throw a grenade?

I think making them sticky and having an arming time is a good idea actually. The arming time keeps them being used for intended purposes, trapping/ambush. The sticky negates the arming time when vehicles are concerned, (so they don't just move off of them).

I don't think 1 or 2 RE's should be able to drop a tank. They shouldn't be used as being able to add on AV capabilities. They should be used to accentuate AV capabilities, or support other people in an AV role. IMO I think it should take almost your full loadout of RE's to just take out a dropship, and two to take down a heavy.

Just my opinion.

Remote explosives are being used as grenades, not for demolitions and traps. Remote explosives have one key word;

"Remote".

Currently, the detonation of REs are anything but remote from their user. Most times they are less than 15m away.

Get rid of the ridiculous automatic death explosions, add an arming/lock on sequence, I would say 5 seconds would do. And does friendly fire on Remote explosives need buffed? It seems to be the new Swarm Launcher to me; fire at your feet and walk away unscathed.

how about you stop being butt hurt by getting killed by a box and deal with it. sounds like another AR user getting upset that he cant beat an RE user.

If anything the RE's should be encouraging people to play the way intended. Dust isnt about rushing people, playing chicken with bullets/AR's. Its about tactical maneuvering like flanking, ambush, covering fire and other such uses. RE's are great for vehicles when you have no opportunity to obtain an AV weapon on the field other than dieing and holding down control points when someone is trying to re-hack while you are getting out of dodge (especially a poorly defended Scout that acts as point man). Including going up against a Heavy, pretty intimidating when all you have is a submachine that is like bb's to them.

Coming from someone who abuses RE in cqc. Of course you will try and defend it. It doesn't matter because its going to get nerfed. Nice fail troll though. RE is broken and if you deny it you are obviously a troll and an idiot.

Yeup i guees im a fail troll and idiot. Im so sorrry for being fails! I guess i should blow myself up with a op box because people cant handle them

Now for srs business guise. How about we stop bitching about Re's before the actual game comes out with all the skills and the different maps and the mechanic called frendly fire. Im sure if ccp feels something really needs to be done about RE they will when they release the full game.

Sounds like you loving camping in CoD, so go back to CoD if you want to camp.

If you use CQC weapons you have no choice but to get in close, Is a guy who uses an SMG or shotgun not supposed to have a chance at killing someone who just throws an RE as soon as he gets close because he can instantly throw and detonate them. They could still be used as traps with an arming time, but an arming time would prevent people from just using them in the MIDDLE of a CQC gun fight.

actually there was this cool dude who shot my re explosive with a shotty and blew me up i laughed pretty hard cuz i got sent flying and he didn't have a scratch on him. I love shotgun users :) (not being sarcastic btw shotguns are pretty nice).

I'm sure they will. I'm still going laugh at the jokers that are going to abuse it in cqc.(you) Those were the same scrubs that were using swarm launchers 24/7 last build. Get good.

I noticed others besides myself keeping distance lately.. it's becoming kinda obvious when someones trying to bait me to chase them into their RE's.. I do the same thing with the mass driver i try to bait ppl to come to me while I wait around a corner.. pretty funny when i meet up face to face with an RE'er we both start back peddling as we both executed a defensive tactict it just ended in a standoff so we went about our ways without killing each other. i hate to see anything get nerfed but I suppose it could use one.. it's changing the way we play but that's not a complaint.

I do feel sorry for the shotgunners tho, but for an AR, RE's are not too bad- they seem to strafe less than some with a normal weapon and they often make the mistake of trying to frontal charge an AR. Sometimes they're an easy kill from range.

3. I have to restock them once I run out. But if the enemy decides to destroy the supply depots, then I am S.O.L. and then forced to get myself killed just to restock. By the time I'm ready to plant more explosives, the objectives will have already been overrun.
