So, mines have a limited time to exist now?
INS can only have 1, so it takes quit a while to lay and rearm so you can mine off an area.
I set 6, by the time I was done with them the first 3 disappeared, and the second half by the time I checked on them a second time. These were not close to a DOD.
I didn't time myself, but that is not much time for mines to exist.
Kind of defeats the purpose of taking the time to set any mine at all doesn't it?

Limit on mines wasn't changed and they don't have a time limit

Re: Are Mines Worthless now?
That doesn't seem to be accurate according too what I experienced.
I set 6 on PRTA's server playing Fallujah, all 6 disappeared after maybe 30mins(I didn't time it).
They were not inside a DOD, or too close, they were scattered allover the map. I never died after laying the mines. No one set them off.
I just tested 2 mines to time them, they disappeared visually, you could not see them at all after about 10mins, but they still blew up. Older ones are not there at all.

Re: Are Mines Worthless now?
I was placing the land mines (sapper). I had some become invisible, but still blew me up, others i put down went away totally.
It was happening to others last night also.
Last night I was also having grenade traps on Fallujiah go away, I placed 2 in the A6 building and they both went away. I walked over where I put them to see if they were just invisible and they were not there at all.
Someone else placed a grenade trap by a logi south of A6 and it was still there about an hour later, but mine were gone in the building.
Bug?

Re: Are Mines Worthless now?
There seems to be a bug with mine that makes it impossible to see what has been planted.
At least a water container type, an anti-tank mine type(usual mine) seems to have this bug.
I've actually heard some reports that players around me were killed by invisible mines on HOG server, canned cat food server and Gamma group server.
I think that we need some investigation for this issue.
