Mine Drills?

What do you mean?

Phylum 08-23-2010 11:32 PM

Drills in Necrum Mines.

I always liked trying to find other uses for mines, or other means of deactivation them.

UXB always made me jump if i pressed it when it was Red. I don't hate them at all, there just annoying at times. (If theres three of them in a row for example)

They're really easy! Just listen to the sound they make and you won't have any problem.

when i got abes oddysee i always asked my mom to disarm the mines,cuz when abe explodes or hits a saw it really scares me...but now im disarming them without a problem

The mines are quite a nice feature in the game, I enjoy them because of the way they can be used as traps. Many a fun hour luring sligs to an untimely demise.

So no, I don't hate them.

sligger 09-12-2010 07:54 PM

the pattern to the mines are all the same! it goes green, 1 red, green, 2 red, green, 3 red, green.... and it repeats, its the pattern for all mines.

Crashpunk 09-13-2010 03:33 AM

It changes the further you get into the game. They get more difficult.

Phylum 09-13-2010 03:43 AM

There are many variants. Wether the difficulty increases or not is questionable.

I was just recently playing AO and AE in order, and after playing the first one I completely forgot the ability to quicksave in AE. :p I can't believe how much easier it makes it.

You know the ones, the ones that you crouch next to and have to tap the top while they're green. I HATE THEM!!! Espesaliy when your a noob who can't do jack sh**.

*only* when you're a noob who can't do jack shit.

Jango 09-28-2010 10:58 AM

The ones in The Boardroom took me ages to be able to disarm, I even wrote the sequence down on a piece of paper! :)

In Abe's Exoddus they're damned easy, you just quicksave before each one.

In Abe's Oddysee, well, it's tougher if you screw up but they're still not that hard to disable. Dut, dut, dut, deet. Dut, dut, dut, deet. Dut, dut, dut, TAP.

Just use quicksave as it was disigned for.
Always use quicksave when you feel that you will die sooner or later.
