There isn’t much I love about this game, but I love the Sticky Detonator because I find it so much fun to use. It’s fun to catch someone unaware as he runs over a round I’ve planted in the ground or past one I’ve planted on a wall.
The other day I was playing BTIS on Meltdown. Someone from the other team got on the turret in the warthog in our vehicle bay, so I went down there, and from the back of the bay tagged his butt from a distance with a Sticky Detonator round, took a few seconds to savor the thought of what was about to happen, then detonated it. That was fun.
At the same time, it’s a small, elegant weapon that isn’t overpowered. If you don’t plant a round in a good spot or don’t detonate it at the right time you won’t get the kill. It can’t take out a healthy vehicle. It’s pretty much useless at distance.
Although it’s not as powerful as a lot of ordnance, in some ways it’s my favorite ordnance weapon.
