I've read over the change log and it says the IED limit is 30, yet when playing as a combat engineer on the Taliban faction, I can only place five IEDs before they disappear.

I think it is talking about total IED limit for all people

Thats silly. There has always been a pretty high personal IED limit. I dont even think there is a team ied limit.

well I think they reduced it because it was too overpowered considering IED kit is not limited and anyone can have it

Taken from the changelog:
Updated maximum deployable proximity IED to 30 (increase from 10)
Proximity IED's are the mines. Normal IED's have a limit of 5, AP mines have a limit of 4 (claymores & grenade traps).

Per person. The manual also describes these limits.

5 is the limit for arty IED. You seem be able to put 10 C4's down despite the manual stating that the limit is 5 as well.

Still enought mines and IEDs to piss off the opposing team.

i love doing that, nothing more satisfying than blowing a ton of IEDs after the cache goes down. have them in all rooms of the cache house, the surrounding alleys, and outside the front. sure you may get some tk's, but it is worth it to me.
