Sorry to ruin you exploiter types day but it's time.. People have discovered that the wall directly across from objective consoles is hollow and have been throwing remote explosives in there. Even the wise, checking for R/E types are getting blown up these days. I apologize to the person I killed testing to make sure they were doing proper damage. It was just the once I swear. This is on all maps.

Now that I've made this public... please CCP with all due haste, pass this on to your mapping people.

That explains why I keep getting blown up by invisible R/E's. I make sure I look all over the objective before hacking, but there it goes, I'm dead two seconds later by an R/E.

My buddies said that people keep putting them outside the objective, but I check there, too. Yet, I still get blown up.

Been trying to find a way to really hide RE for nine months now but AFAIK there's no way to make them disappear.
They always bounce from 3D model of structure.
Sure, they can be hard to find, but still findable.

Well, I don't say there's no way on earth, but it's likely there's no invisible RE's.

There's no truly invisible REs.

There are places where they "clip" inside objects and only the tiniest part of the explosive is visible, but even then, they CAN be found.

Part of the problem is that you need someone looking at the RE for a good few seconds before it's lit up and revealed, or you need to stay well within scan range for san amount of time determined by your suit's Scan Precision. Scouts are the best hunters of explosives, and I hope Active Scanners will help to light them up for other suits.

That doesn't mean there doesn't need to be a fix, because some placements can make the REs far less visible than they should be.

I put together a really quick video here --> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VMl8MEERA9g&feature=youtu.be

I don't have a proper capture card and when I jumped into this battle my team was getting redlined and whupped. So time and quality may be issues as I had to sneak in behind enemy lines find some REs, blow them up etc. I think it shows the difficulty in the ridding of hidden explosives and how easy they are to place so that nobody can see them.

If another video showcasing proper explosions, kills and deaths is needed I can take the time to put it together later but again, I think the quick one I just did, already covers the location and issue.

The youtube account was created for this one video alone so please do not respond on it as it will be deleted soon.
