<div class="IPBDescription">How to win as a rine in v4</div> Ok, I know v4 is a lot different for rines now, but there is still a way to camp and win.
Every single rine gets mines
When enough rines get the mine upgrade, the floor literly becomes a solid mine field that easily stops any sulks, lerks and fades from getting close and taking over.
The one point loss isn't that bad, I can still go jp shotgun lvl2 and resupply, or if I feel evil jp gl resupply.
Try it out, get enough people to buy mines and just carpet your spawn with them. It'll buy you enough time to get shotguns and HA's and whatnot before aliens can get onos to come to spawn

But THAT is just a rumor... <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Unless you're a crack shot, one mine will do more damage than your gun will in the 1/2 second you're alive during a spawncamp.
When the spawncamping starts, watch the menu for when you're reinforcing. When that happens, get ready.
Pop out, quick-switch to 4, and slap that puppy down on the ground. If you can do that before you die, you've just given the next guy in line a bit more of a chance to survive. Plus, if you do manage to eventually beat back the spawncampers, you've probably got a couple more levels to upgrade with.
Combat is the answer. Combat will protect you from the terrible secret of space.
And now with more randomized locations and non-wave spawning spawn camping isn't as much of a problem so really mines won't help you there.
And once they have few fades or onos or even a gorge mines won't help you much. That point would be much better spent on an offensive weapon or armor so you can push up.
About the only place a mine can be handy is putting one on the backside of the CC on a map like core where skulks can hide behind it and cause trouble.
Mines are kind of stupid in that it's the only weapon that rewards you for dieing. Congrats, you died. You get a new mine but the enemy probably got a level.

But at least it doesn't cause leprosy. I'd rather be insane than leprotic.
50 mines exploding at once is one buggy sound effect! <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
But yeah, mine all you want, one bilebomb clears the room.
