Now escort him to the enemy building and when he gets close to the mct. Detonate the remote c4. if you put 30 mines on him it's a garrenteed destroy of the buliding.

Although it'd be mighty fun to actually succeed in it, especially if the building was under attack and there are half a dozen engies repairing

So you want too see an entire base filled with proxies, well I don't.

And those great tactics you are talking about, there is no way you would be able to pull that off against real players. just put the c4 on the mct yourself, that does work and your timed doesn't count against the mine limit.

Down with the mine count! It restricts too many things and foils some incredibly wasteful (and cool) tactics.

Are you on acid? Unrestricted mines would make basically any structure infiltration impossible, plus more than 100 mines (twice that if you counted each side) would up lag considerably, as the server would have to keep tabs on moving units plus the positions of 200+ mines.

My question is.. if you have times c4 on you and you die, where does the C4 go? On the ground where you died?

It just stays where the soldier died untill it goes off. If your getting beaten in the tunnels this can work. (have a few kills from it) I prefer to hand deliver c4 whether its timed, proxy or remote. Early on I'll throw a timed at random in the tunnel or if i get into the enemy base I'll go for a building mct placement, or a harvester drop if it's the right map. Any time you see a bonus box drop a proxy under it, then take the box. The box will reappear in the same spot right on top of a mine!
ANYONE PLANNING TO PLACE C4 Should Send a Message Stating that they are Placing c4.
Do not start off by placing 15 in the same spot
Go for choke points in tunnels, Blind spots are good too.
Don't put it too close together You can set off a chain reaction that does very little damage( no kill) and it can easily be taken out by a suicide run or a timed c4 dropped into the pile (enemy or freindly)I've cleared 15 mines with one timed and taken no damage. I'm sure the other guy was thinking " no Stealth is sneaking through our tunnel now." 15 mines go boom alot faster than they can be disarmed.
Use mines and c4 as an offensive weapon if you get into a situation where it is too your advantage. I cant tell you how many times I've thrown proxies right at the enemy. CATCH!!!! You get damaged too but if your gonna die anyway die smiling because you hear "boink boink" as you kill a couple of the other team.
