I would like to have deployable sentry guns (no not the large turrets) as equipment which gets deployed and takes like ~10 secs to unfold itself to guard the area. I could imagine as turret a AR mounted on it but other weapons could work aswell like a shotgun for tight areas. Maybe different variants for the races? It should aswell have a limited ammo count which can be refilled with nanohives. The HP should be somewhere between a assault and a heavy. As countermeasures against it av weapons should work (av grenades, swarms and forgeguns etc.).
I shall show you a world, a world which you cant imagine, a world full off butthurt n00bs at the other end of my gun

great idea! instead of leaving point control to a small team of human players lets give it to a piece of ai much like the current turret ai... and give it the highest dps weapon in the game. Oh dont forget a decent helping of hp. you know what... lets just fit a whole damn squad with these! 2 people can deploy a gun each on 3 points and then we can go circle jerk in the mcc all game using the redberries tears as lube! Hell with all that extra time we may aswell take up playing farmville too! its free 2 play and we have all this experience from farm 514!
tldr; might be feasible but op is heavily deluded about potential stats

DUST already has to much computer assistance... where's the PvP skill to it?
We already have a computer aiming for us and perfect turrets that can kill anything they want... keep what little skill is left in the game in the game, please & thank you. |

I agree that they would be a nice addition, and the placement would add an interesting game choice and variable.
Unfortunately I'm afraid they might cause lag which should be avoided at all costs.
Feeling the scanner is too simple and off balance?

I'm still thinking about a targeting drone that follows the parent dropsuit around and paints a single target increasing the damage dealt to that player. Requires a high slot target painter drone link so it would be in direct competition with a damage amps and overall the single benefit bonus is weaker but its meant to be a team buff drone.
Gallente would get bonuses.
Other flavors might include:
Sensor Dampening Drone Sensor Amp Drone Jammer Drone Fatigue Drone (slows stamina) Lethargy Drone (slows run speed)
Small portion of Hp, easily destroyable and not that all stealthy as they do float above the guys head. Requires a nanohive to restore function. There will also be manual equipment that does similar things but on a far more powerful scale as you're giving up both hands to operate those.
This, one small step for CCP, one giant leap for Dust MMOFPS 514.

A sentry would be cool, but POTENTIALLY over powered.
I would prefer deployable light turrets, which you can choose the base and weapon seperatly. Tyese turrets would required manned operation, would have LAV health and provide limited cover to the user(like a headshot guard or something)
Could be replenished from hives, healed by repair tools. Has large pg/cpu and construction time to compensate.

+1 for not assuming you can carry something with more ehp than you in your backpack |

Well you know we already carry a teleporter that allows you to transport hundreds of people. And a nanohive that allows you to have more ammo than a LAV could fit in the boot.
So you I don't see why not.

Find a heavy with an HMG. Tell him to stay. If he doesn't stay, cut his legs off with nova knives.

I mentioned something like this before. Having a HEAVY Logi, Low slots are used for deployable equipment like (X) Turrets or Deployable scanners/reppers/tank ammo. Stuff like that.
X= Laser, Hybrid, Plasma Flame ect.... |

Give it a small Ion coaxial weapon and nanite injector (or/with) armor repair tool. |

still waiting on the commander suit.... if you though turrets were bad now.. wait for the equiv. proto skilled turret, being set up at IDEAL locations with pocket logi repper :P.
drones would be high on my list as well.... followed by Ewar and then Ewar drones and installations.
also... current turrets might seem OP but lets face it... getting knocked about by them every now and again doesnt make them OP.. just better than useless.
You might also think on using team work against them.. currently they are easily distracted off a target if they take damage from another source.

IDK about that, though I do think it would be awesome if we could deploy small weapon installations like we used to have way back.
I miss small blaster installations....

They have sentry drones in eve so in the far future they will have it in dust.

Interesting idea there.
They need to have a strength and a weakness.
Their strength is that they can guard an area. Other strengths could include high and low slots, the ability for a friendly to take it over and use it or ability to redeploy. Perhaps different kinds could come with different weapons attached.
I suggest that possible weaknesses include something like limited detection range, limited ammunition, limited scan or motion angle (like the angles on active scanners) or lack of shields. Perhaps they could even be hackable.

You drop an uplink and chances are that a Heavy will show up in 10 secs with a handheld sentry gun, they can sometimes move
