So, why were mines removed from the game? There was even talk of French toast
But there was none to be had |

Reason I heard was people would set them up in trade routes through low sec and 0.0 and other popular routes and they would be shredded before they even got out of warp. ~ The man who smiles when things go wrong has thought of someone to blame it on. |

Originally by: RedSplat So, why were mines removed from the game?
mines was removed from the game because the mines could cause Massive lag and Death warp trails.
each mine counted as a ship entry. so if you had 5000+ mins thats 15 to 20 mins before you client would every wakeup! and the Death warp trails. EVIL people would take ravens and go from 105km from the gate to 5km laying massive amounts of mines. so take a wild guess what happened..
your client would lag. trying to load the gate area as you finally load you here explosives and podded instantly!
note mines didn't expire ether. the mines would only disappear if someone hit them, shoot them, or Downtime!

There were also some issues with the criminal flagging if i recall, where you could drop a mine somewhere in low sec, they be flying elsewhere in high sec and the mine would kill someone, and you would get concorded. Not pleasant.

instant server death patch. Awesome.
I would like to see some kind of mine field mechanic in the game but it would be really hard to implement and seriously overpowered if you used it in conjunction with mobile warp disruptors.
