Claymores!!!

Claymores have been suggested before: http://multiplayerservers.com/threads/8401/
And who keeps rating these posts pointless?

 

All this is is C4 that goes of when someone walks past. This has been suggested before. Please think before you post.

 

Well, this is a decent idea. Well there is already C4... So they'd like get rid of c4 for claymores? And also people need to be informed if this is added so people don't be accused of hacking.

 

Maybe the claymore can be a button? If Orange is adding it, I suggest adding it after the 1.8 update because then you'll be allowed to place buttons on the ceiling and on the ground. Of course, it shouldn't be able to kill the player through a wall or layers of blocks.

There is an advantage to this over c4. If you want to go kill more people without waiting for the victim to walk into the c4, than this would be better to use than c4. However, there aren't much other similarities than this, so I don't know if it will be added.

 

C4 is better because you can choose when to detonate it. Also it goes through walls.

 

This isn't a bad idea, I don't know why some people don't like it.

 

What would be the range of throw for the claymore? Make it reasonable so that it's not op. Here's how I think it could be balanced out:

-Can be thrown (unlike c4), but only with the range 3/4 of a grenade.
-OSK, but it cannot kill through walls like c4.
-Placeable pretty much on any COMMON block.
-Cannot be detonated by the player at will.
-When the claymore is thrown, it should have a fuse delay of 1.5 seconds. Plenty of time to run away from it. However, if placed, it will instantly detonate as soon as the player walks over it (you will need the maximum number of claymores to kill the player if it is PLACED)
-The AOE (area of effect) should be just a tiny bit bigger than the AOE of a cbow arrow.

I think this is a good idea to add. I've included the advantages and disadvantages of using claymores. There's also some differences in here that would make claymore more useful than c4, such as in certain infect maps where it is hard to even c4 a player.

 

this guy is smart
you guys should listen to him

Suggested before, requesting lock

 

I want 50 claymores, then set them around me, so som guy can't go through our spawn and then kill me.

 

I like this. It's well thought out and you actually put some time into this idea. (I think :v)
It just seems presented well, too.
The only problem I can think of is claymore glitching, using it to access unlegit areas. However, it wouldn't be as bad as C4.
