Rip anti-tank mines

[my girlfriend's phantom boner]

There was no way we were going to kill 2 billion bots but we gave it a good shot, i heard the mines weren't that good but it's still a shame we won't get them

Compared to the useless launcher? The mines are great.

[NOOBSURVIVES YT]

we can blame sony for this, the Helldivers are gone. Be ready to fail more major orders in future.

I'd have like to give them a shot, it'd be cool if we could have finally gotten a stratagem that would have been more useful against bots than yet another stratagem that's only useful against bugs

I was playing a train game instead.

[Khloros]

oh no, we are not going to get a stratagem that no one is going to use anyway, early.

Yeah totally that's so true why add any other stratagems to the game when we have those 2 in the game, who cares about something like "variety" anyways?

If we ever get those mines, I better see you running them every few missions then.

maybe if 25k+ werent playing with the bugs instead of doing the major order.
shameful display of democracy.

I'm guessing they thought this would go the way of the "kill 2 billion bugs" order we've had before because they wanted an easy excuse to add the mines finally lol

Problem is, bugs come in much larger swarms so it's way easier to rack up kills.

Killing Bots during a Bug MO will give some kind of metal based bonus, like:
Increased Ammo Cap
Adding Armor Pen to rounds
Reinforced Armor for Players
Killing Bugs during a Bot MO could give a 710 based bonus, like:
More Fire damage
Reduce Stratagem Cooldown
(I don't know a lot about the lore, could anyone step in and give some better examples of 710 Bonus?)

first they fixed the launcher because everything triggered it , then they un-fixed it again that its a guaranteed suicide button (only activate by hostiles and other helldivers ... i mean , wtf ?)

Just something for people to complain about anyway, win or lose.

I think we'll get them regardless. It's enough scrap for the mines just not enough kills to get the medals.

I'll use them when i feel like it, though i don't see why you seem to think i should be obligated to run them "every few missions" just because they're added.

It's not unfixed. It has just been adjusted. I just tested it, works better.
