This happened a few hours ago, but I figured I should post it here anyways. I’m trying to member as best I can.
So, I was playing Objective as attacking Proxy in Trainyard. Another proxy planted C4 on the track switch (the corner closest to the MG, for reference). I went to put a mine on top of the C4, before noticing there was a friendly mine already clipping into the C4. Since it was too late to cancel, I just thought “oh well, bigger explosion” and tried to back up.
I was then killed by a sniper, but no one finished me off, so I managed to see them defuse. My mine was still there for certain (I’m not sure about the other one since I couldn’t see it through the C4 and guy defusing) and had since armed, but it didn’t go off even with the one guy defusing directly on top of it and his team running past it constantly (like right next it and on top of the other guy to shield him).
What gives? That one mine could have very well saved us the match or at least bought us some time, yet it didn’t even go off
