    Did anyone else notice the cool looking "Metal Gear Solid" style Line of sight for marines on the minimap? However the yellow makes it look like a torchlight <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Got to love that Halo mine stack

    Yeah, I noticed that.

    I think they just added the yellow view thing to the sprite... right?

    if you were in a vent, couldnt you just have the mines, drop one below you, jump and drop at the same time, so its like a tower of mines? it only lets 1 marine up, but it would be a lot easier and faster, since you could just jump, lay, jump, lay, jump, lay, ect...

    Not bad, not bad at all <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->


    I'm just afraid of what this will do for places that are supposed to be impossible to get to as marines early on, more possible. As it stands there are already places to jump into, getting to nanogrid on veil through the vent will now be easier than ever <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Yeah looks like great fun, but as Trojan said, the tactical implications could be a bit worrying.

    Sure, the mines can be used to get to many places that were previously inaccessible. However, it takes 3 parasites to destroy the ladder, or 1 bite, or any alien charging into any part of it. It opens up more possibilities for marines, but it is easy to stop, and it takes a lot of effort, either getting all those marines there with mine packs or building an armory there.
