Hello,
time to update you guys about the PR 1.0 C4 vs Firebase, Vehicle, Ammocache gameplay changes.
[B][U]Following has changed for the conventional forces:[/U][/B]
- C4 for conventional forces will be available in a small and a large model
- the large model is a bit more than twice as strong, and only available for the CombatEngineer, while the small C4 is handed out to the specialist too
- both types of C4 will be time detonated now (basically removes ability to ambush)
- C4 is defuseable by the CombatEngineer, in case the C4 was misplaced
- FOBs are not knifeable anymore, and only killable by C4 or other high explosive devices, and big calibers used by vehicles
- Caches are effectively killable by C4 only and it takes longer to plant the c4, to simulate a proper EOD work. This also helps to prevent "ninja" cache destroying
- To blow a cache successfully with one C4 (doesn't matter if big or small) it needs to be planted directly on the cache - means killing caches through walls isnt that easy anymore
[B]The video below is pretty old[/B], the C4 deploy times and the detonator, the effects and minor other things have changed for example, but the shown gameplay mechanics are the same:

way better than buggy thermite!
but i dont like that they still stick to vehicles. I dont see a reason for this as it only encourages "ninjas" that try to kill manned vehicles with C4.Posted 2013-06-28 at 12:52 by Mats391

did the vehicle`s engine get disabled by the first small c4 or is it just a new engine sound?
feels like its gonna be alot harder now to disrupt enemy supply lines (aka: these changes have ruined the mod even though I haven`t played i yet..)
good workPosted 2013-06-28 at 12:57 by Nate.

Awesome! Curious how this plays out. I guess you now need to really take over the enemy firebase and clear the area before attempting to destroy it fully. Instead of sending a ninja over there while you're still assaulting
