mining

[trunkskgb]

No matter how many guides are made, people will still mess this up, and the mechanics of mining will continue to change with additional maps being added. 
 

Just take it with a grain of salt and if you’re on the team where you’re enemies mined have vanished, take advantage of it.

so, i had a (friendly) discussion with geko yesterday about where to mine on walls flying. he was argueing mining front is still better than buildings, on walls vanilla for sure. on walls flying i´m not so sure, due to transport helicopters or people flying in on the sides with apaches etc, but he´s a better player than i am. what´s your guys opinion?

You had a discussion with me that I didnt even know about?

does someone else play with the nickname geko right now? i mean maybe discussion is stretching it, you just pointed out front wasn´t mined, i said that´s because we mined buildings, you(or the geko imposter) said front is better

Ban both to be sure

Good question.

First, you did the right thing by following the existing plan. Worst thing to do is to have 2 people mining differently and overmining each other.

Ideally, I think it's better for GDI to mine base entrance and tunnels, 3 mines at WF ramp and 1 mine at each door at ref, pp and wf backdoor (5 mines), that's for both flying and non-flying. Sure helis can fly by, but it's harder than walk & nuke. By briefly looking at the door mines you can see whether a SBH(s) sneaked in a building and act. Of course you need to constantly check the mine count for anything.

Nod should mine the tunnel, and have more mines at the building doors. But it's much much less critical.

Dont mine GDI buildings on Walls Flying, you will easily reach the mlimit trying to mine the many bldg ramps. Just mine front and tun. As for trannies, well just make sure they dont get past the wall... which is easy when you have multiple pics havocs and orcas on your team. If you are Nod then u can do whatever u feel like I guess.
