Hide IEDs and Mines

[talkinBEERmug]

While playing on insurgent as the ambusher I keep looking for things in the road to set my IED behind, then I had a thought what if the ambusher had a second deployable slot, it would not be a weapon just a static model to block the IED. It could be grass, a rock, or a piece of trash, it would have to be something found on most maps, because something that you don’t normally see would stick out worse than just an IED. A friend that served in Iraq told me that they hide IEDs in everything from tin cans to dead dogs. The engineer could also use this deployable static model to hide the mines.

Simple way to do this is to remodel the mine to look like grass, or rock, and just deactivate it so you could place this static model in front of the mine.

Um, i think this has been suggested before, but you should check, but nice idea.

Yes I searched the already suggested post, and the suggestions forums, I found in the already suggested transparent Mines/C4, my idea is a little different than that, but I did find a forum post that is the same idea, but I did not see any dev post on the idea, so I think a fresh look at the idea should be ok.

[mp5punk]

yes, i think it would be better if you could possible dig an ied into the ground, that would be nice.

[Airsoft]

it's possible, look at forgotten hope 2

We just need more stuff like stones, wrecks, and trash bins near roads. More places to hide IED.

Nice idea, Ied's are always easy to spot, as they come out the stone some times.

[Zoddom]

yes, marine.
You can also see the IED earlier than a stone.

[mp5punk]

maybe they should just be dug into the ground, like i said earlier.

hmm, i think that would make them "too invisible".
simply one entity of grass would be fair enough so put over the ied
and u could use that grass even not for hiding but for confusing the enemy, he would drive around the grass - directly in the IED

IED's are easily hidable, just put it in a rock and driver's wont be able to see it.

On most map there are rocks on he road or boxes. You can throw an IED into a rock and its magically inside of it and hidden.

[Zoddom]

yes, marine.

But the IED is so small, that the driver will have to zoom to see it, which they dont do when driving around.

I think it's very easy to place IEDs, just place them on a building or wall to the side of the road, or possibly a tree.

There are also certain blind spots on roads, like taking a curve or going over or down the top of a hill, I find I kill quite some people by doing this.

I also do this Copper but to take out a tank or apc you need to hit it right under it. I dont think the should be invisible, and if they put more rocks and debris on the roads this would do it.
