even better (for attackers) when MCOMs are in destroyable buildings as you don't even need direct hits on the MCOM to take it out.
Mcoms can be destroyed by explosives in BC2, it just takes a lot more of them now.

In BF3 however, Mcoms don't take damage at all. You MUST arm them to destroy them. My team was so dumb earlier that I had to arm FIVE of the Mcoms myself in one round. We were just fucking lucky that the other team was just as dumb.
