I've also noticed that no matter how many I put down, even if I die they stick around when I respawn.

There's a limit though. If you use the perk you get 7. If you put down all 7 and die they will stay. HOWEVER. If you place more mines the old ones disappear.

6*

Also, don't stack up all your mines in one area. It only takes 2 mines to kill any vehicle including a heavy tank. I believe it only takes 1 to take out a transport vehicle. So, equip the extra explosive perk and place 2 on like each road where you think are common for vehicles to drive through. When you die and your mines still have not went off, just switch classes or change back to the RPG/Carl Gustav.

Really? I've had rounds where (not using the perk) I placed all 3 down, died and then placed more down and all 6 were on the ground still.

Yes same thing, the max limit is 6.

The new rush map actually has 5 sets of mcoms not 4.

Nice. Arica Harbor is my favorite rush map because it has 5 sets.
