I don't know why it is so hard copy & paste the vCOH mines.

Fun Fact: vCoH mines were a work of fiction. Visually they were based off German Teller Mines, even though they were buildable by the Americans. The M8 could also lay super-mines that looked the same but did more damage. The most realistic were the Panzer Elite "Teller Mines", which looked the same but with a different texture (still resembling Teller Mines, obviously), and being only triggered by vehicles but dealing massive damage.

Shouldn't this guy be banned already ? He injects every single thread with his fanboism and hate.

Irony....

The PTRS's are fine as they are. Whenever i'm up against Guard Infantry, I always have to be careful with my vehicles or the Guards will completely destroy them. Good range, good damage and fairly cheap; if anything, the PTRS should nerfed since it's ridiculously good for the price. Even in the hands of Conscripts, the PTRS's are extremely potent.

He was being humorous; You are humorless.

Imho since the resource points are spread further apart in coh2 i feel its harder to effectively implement minesweepers effectively

As long as it is good for gameplay, who cares?

The problem with mines atm is that they're so random. Sometimes one guy can walk ahead of the pack and just run into the mine and die. Other times your entire squad will bunch up and walk into the mine and die at full health. Obviously this can be easily solved by bringing back symmetric vcoh mines and relegating S-mines and teller mines to doctrinal abilities.
