View Full Version : Mine Fuse: Random - Not working?

In my experience of every single game that I have played with a gametype setting of a random mine fuse I have not once seen an instant mine or a 1 or 2 second mine. Every random mine that I have seen has been 3-4 seconds -OR- a dud (as every heavy that I activate the mine with has enough time to ALWAYS get away before the explosion)

There has never been an instant mine explosion in any game that I have played with the setting activated and I am wondering if it is a problem on my part or if there is a problem with the setting. Thanks!

So I made a flat level and put a load of mines set to random in the game settings and not a single one detonated instantly. My scout could activate and leap over every mine with relative ease. I will have to do more precise testing as to how fast they detonate, which seemed to always be 3 seconds.

There were dud mines as well as the seemingly constant 3 second mines. Can anyone confirm or deny my claim? I'm really starting to think that I am missing something obvious here.

For me, there is a bug with mines. I want them to explode immediatly but they dont. always wait 3 seconds before exploding

Pretty sure this is a bug. I noticed all mines have a 3 second fuse as well. I'm sure they will fix it in an upcoming patch. Also, please fix the crate drop probability and percentages. Right now you can't choose between 30 or 90% drop probability and if you set them all to 90% this obviously exceeds 100%.

Hey guys,

Just to let you know I did ask someone to take a look into this so I'll chase it up tomorrow morning and see what is actually occurring.

This is awesome. Thank you hopefully I'm not crazy in making these claims! :)

So on the weekend I continued to notice not one single instant mine over the course of 5 or so games. Help? :)

Any word Beth? I am 100% sure that random mines do not work other then 3 second timers and duds at this time.
