It's smart and classy.
GG, dipshits.
You are absolutely correct, especially when blue dots take the time to guard those turrets with thier lives, even when the main fight is on the other side of the map. None of them would consider abandoning such powerful weapons to be picked up by the enemy without a fight and used against their side. Nope, they protect it at all cost once hacked.
We should recognize thier courage and team play. |

Turrets shouldn't be free. If mercs had to pay for them they would:
A) Be in useful locations
and
B) Be guarded rather than taken and immediately abandoned.
Infantry has no skin in the game, so their opinion doesn't matter. They don't pay for the turrets and they don't suffer when they turn red. It's as simple as that. |

Here's an interesting thought experiment:
Dot the battlefield with sentry turrets that only target infantry. Any vehicle can roll up to it and hack it, but infantry is mowed down by AI when getting near. They all start out neutral.
What would be their fate in a team with mixed meta levels? Say mostly militia and BPOs with a sprinkling of expensive proto wearers. Would the proto users leave them active on their rear flanks, or would they decide it's prudent to destroy them? How would the cheap fits react? |

There are plenty of AI turrets, yet you don't see infantry crying for yanks to save them by destroying them in case they turn red. Forge Gunners shoot them for WP, same as tankers.
My multiple Logi fittings are what pay my flying bill. I don't recall getting shot by an AI turret in my suit in ages. I honestly thought you had to be in a vehicle to get targeted by AI. I walk up to red turrets all the time. |
