Dynamite (Bug?)

(Inglix the Mad) #1

Okay playing a six map campaign we get to the Fuel Depot map and the ally engineer plants dyno at my command post. I killed him just as he was finishing and his body ends up on the dyno. I couldn’t defuse it with the his body there (was blown up trying). No blue progress bar, nothing.

Is this the old “die on the dyna coz they can’t defuse it till they gib you and the n00bs won’t realise this” trick? :frowning:

Thanks for the confirmation that this is still a feature.

Sounds like it. Keep on shooting the dead Engy till he drops his gun then you’ll be able to defuse. Twas a standard tactic in RTCW to make sure you die on top of your dynamite. Engys would even sit on the dynamite and kill themselves if they thought they’d be overwhelmed by enemy, just to delay them defusing.

its not a bug its a feature - you try defusing dynamite with a body in the way :smiley: shoot em a few times to gib (game equivalent of “shoving them off it”) and whip out the pliers :slight_smile:
