ICA Tripwire Mine

How do I use the damn thing? if I hold the right mouse button it just brings up the throw reticle like it's a Grenade

You need to place it. RB+LB on controllers, Tab (I think) on PC.

Last time I tried it every attempt at using it just killed me

Has it been fixed to even be usable yet?

It's worked for a very long time.

"very long time" ~ games been out for 8 weeks, it didn't work for at least the first 4 because it would explode just for equipping it

edit: well, it does seem to work now, not that I see much use for it. it's harder to use and even more limited than just a proximity explosive and those don't have much purpose either unless you are just messing around

If it has been working for a month already, that's a very long time.

I don't have this yet, but tripmines in other games require TWO user actions to place trip mines, one to plant the explosive, and one to plant the tripwire. PLACE probably has to be used twice as well here. Think about it: TRIPWIRE. How the HELL is one going to plant a tripmine with only a SINGLE user action? To expect that would be…evidence of mental deficiency or a horrifying lack of education.

This sounds really neat. I look forward to unlocking and using it.

It's not double action, as TommyEV said they did fix it and I've gone ahead and tried it again

It activates (audible) about a second after you place it, be sure to not be standing in front of it

When the game launched and for the first month it was active simply by equipping it and exploded as soon as you put it in your hands or dropped it, the fix was to give it a 1 second delay so you have time to move out of its way

It took watching YouTube posts to accurately understand the device. It's not a tripwire mine—it's a triplaser mine…that's akin to calling a fully automatic pistol a semi-automatic gun, two items being as similar as leeks are to scallions.
