The Anti-Humanity Sensor Mine is an anti-personnel land mine used by the Mental-Altani corporation.[1]

Overview[]

The anti-humanity sensor mine is an anti-personnel weapon that was developed by the Mental-Altani corporation to target anyone who is not affiliated with the company. Owing up to its name, the mine will detonate upon impact with anyone careless enough to entire its promixity radius, at which point it will blow them to pieces. However, due to a manufacturing issue, the mine cannot distinguish between friend and foe, so it will target anyone that gets too close to it, even Mental-Altani or Mental's Horde-affiliated units.[2]

When the target get within close proximity to a mine, it wll reveal itself, but will become invisible again once the target is out of its range. Shooting or stepping over the mine will make it explode. Destroying a mine will not set off other mines in the area, so the player can only destroy one mine at a time.

Appearances[]

Anti-humanity sensor mines appear on almost every level in the game, except for the levels that take place on the Mental-Altani Moon base. They are only found in minefields, which are indicated by the red warning signs. Mines are frequently scattered around minefields, and should be avoided at all costs, unless the player wants to get stars or earn the "Mine Sweeper" achievement.

Tactics[]

  • When a mine reveals itself, destroy it before stepping on it.
  • When clearing out minefields, the player needs to make sure that they keep their distance to avoid taking damage from the explosion.
  • The Oozegun is a fairly effective weapon for clearing minefields, as the ooze clouds fired by the oozegun can destroy mines, so long as they are visible.
  • The Flamethrower, Shotgun and Thompson are useful weapons for clearing minefields.
  • Enemies will continue to chase the player even when going through a minefield. The player can turn the tides in their favor by having the enemies step on the mines. This way, the mines can be used to wipe out large groups of enemies swarmed together, such as Beheaded Kamikazes.
