Not sure what to title the post, but...
I was playing around with C4 and discovered a few things... I've been playing awhile, but never run into either of these in the BF2 community (unless I missed them?). First is something I am sure EA implemented, but the second is definately a bug.

This is probably a Duh.. or why didnt you know that... but still. Destructable items in the map can be used as a trap. When C4 is attached to them and they are destroyed... they explode, pretty simple. Thus making those road signs actually worth something (I am for them all the time). Now what is not cool, however, is the disappearing of C4 on these items, which I am certain is some sorta glitch.

I made this in a hurry, so excuse the bad editing and lack of ultra cool video demo music (also my voice did not pick up on the FRAPs so it sounds like they are talking to themselves). Now, this one is certainly a bug, which could be exploited... but does not have the potential of making a big impact on games. What is happen?
1) A supply box needs to be dropped on a roof or something above another area.. maybe a bridge... i dunno
2) C4 is attached to the box
3) The box is blown up by something other than the C4 on it. (quickly switching to your detonator)
4) The C4 drops through the floor
5) The C4 can be detonated below the floor (or further)
The first part is me killing a friend who is one floor below. The second part is another friend killing the previously mentioned friend two floors below, which doesnt seem like it in the video... but I attribute that to lag/my machine sucks. Anyways, try it out if you do not believe me.
Regardless, this is not something spectactular or even not going to change the way BF2 is going to be played, but I thought I might bring it up.
Enjoy
