IED's weakened?

IMS ............. I have gone prone and avoided them in ghosts, but the second one will get you for sure.



I dont have much of an issue with them though. I can usually get away from them just b getting out of the los, Step back outside the door, go around a corner or whatever. Once I find one I keep teasing it until it runs empty.



The only time they get me is if I get stuck on something and cant get away....... which isnt uncommon. I've even been on the 3rd or fourth one following the same path and must find a nail sticking out of a doorjam or something that out of nowhere snags
me and wont let me get back out. I kind of feel silly when that happens.



That's something that seems to have changed in the game. In the beginning I talked about how free you could move around without getting stuck on things, But as time goes by I get stuck more and more. Like the scaffold ramp on overwatch. I can run that
same path up that ramp over and over in a game without a problem, then mysteriously something will stop me about half way up it and I'l have to struggle to get loose.

I usually take a step back and then prone,Works most of the time,Gotta be quick though.Just prone does'nt work.

I just cant seem to figure them out myself, sometimes I can run through them with agility, sometimes I cant. Sometimes I can back off the instant I hear one and sometimes I cant.

I dont know if its a lag issue for me or what, but the relationship between hearing them beep and where/when they explode seems totally inconsistent.

The only way I can consistently escape them is with sitrep.

Backing up and dropping works everytime for me (unless it caught me off guard and I react too slow). They do seem to be inconsistent...maybe depending on the placement of the ied, the angle/speed a character is going.

Does Danger Close and the IMS and IED explosions get stronger with that perk? I may need to try it out. Maybe even drop some C4 on an IED too (if they arent in the same equiptment slot.)
