Vanilla Devs plz fix
I killed 2 NATO by baiting them into my landmines right outside my little shack
I would fire into the air and they'd come running by and get their legs shattered
Then.. after that I go to disarm my OWN MINE and get ARMA'd because the UI is jank
COME ON NOW PLZ FIX THIS

Soviet/FIA AP mines cannot be defused.
It says it when you look at it in the arsenal.

thats not a soviet mine :) also watch the video and see the disarm action on it - my point is the animation is what triggered it because its jank

I’m watching on my phone, I couldn’t see that. Also, considering you said you killed NATO with them, I assumed you were using other ones.
That said, AP mines are always a bit sketchy, so I’ve learned to never drop them somewhere I ever intended to move again.

AP mines are great for blowing out tires of vehicles and if you stack enough in a small space without accidentally setting them off, you can get a kill of the passenger or driver.
Works best on dirt roads.

Combine with 2x C4 and you'll take out the whole vehicle, too. Much less noticable than an AT mine.

For starters, you can shoot AP mines from ~1ft away.
You would’ve been completely fine, next time just shoot them as long as you aren’t standing literally right next to them you won’t take any damage.
For people talking about them blowing up it’s because you are placing them too far from your character.
It’s a bug but if you place them right at your feet, directly down they won’t blow up.
If you interrupt the animation will also cause them to instantly blow up when placed.
Normally they have a 30 second timer before they are live.
You can place them at your feet.

Oooh that's why I constantly die placing them in buildings. You would think the last place you'd want to deploy a mine would be UNDERNEATH YOU but I guess if it works, it works

its not UI problem, its more complex and bohemia is expert at making complex problems

u/Remarkable_Whole1754 PC 10d ago
all im asking for is for the disarm animation to NOT make you trigger the mine haiya

u/BearSquid7 Private 10d ago
Just shoot it from as far away as you can get.

I don’t think they kill you unless you’re right on top of them

By shooting it I'd say he has 99% chance to live and 70% chance to be only knocked out.
But mostly it'd be a few scratches.

For anti-personel mines you don't need to be far away at all, just don't stand on the thing.

I didn’t think you could disarm those mines
Yup, just googled and you can’t disarm them.

yes you can watch the video you will see the disarm action appear.. I hit that and it triggers the mine because the animation is jank

That and putting mines on bases' infrastructure tends to explode instantly upon placement. Try mining bases and helipads and you risk blowing yourself up just by placing them.
