Idea Claymores

I‘d like to see this be able to damage structures made of certain blocks (think dirt and wood but not stones) via an upgrade- this would make you think very carefully about where you placed the claymores.

 

This is actually a cool idea. Claymores in BO2 were way too much fun lol. But i feel like people would use these in the same way C4s r used, just throwing them on the floor when theyre in front of a person.

 

Ice Bear recommends that you put an arming time (time it takes before the trap is ready) Ice Bear says it should be maybe 5 seconds so people don't just throw it down like a C4.

 

To try to prevent people just throwing it down, I think make it able to kill the person who threw it.
That being said, I think people are still willing to die to get the c4 kill, so I think an arming time (for this as well as c4) might be useful. On the other hand, the only situations where people really use c4s are to throw at someone during a fight rather than strategically placing it so that's a bit of a down side.

 

maybe it takes 2-3 seconds to put it in place, 2-3 seconds on mc-war can mean the difference between life and death... anyway i love this idea of claymores!

 

I think Claymores could be fun, as long as they can be somewhat visible. If they are too hard to see and if they are balanced incorrectly, they could become a humongous nuisance. For balance, 1. like everyone is saying, make it like the bomb in demo where you have to "eat" it to set it down (which prevents spam? like c4) and 2. make it where it doesn't explode instantly when a player walks in front of it, as that gives the player no chance of surviving. (like w/ Tomahawk)
