That is kind of the idea... Your team is supposed to help capture/defend them... But they don't, so roll with a missile tanker, they'll get the job done.

If you're squishing a team into the redzone, you kill the redzone turrets... It's about the only time the redzone turrets get killed now... Tanks still bone installations, just not if they're defended. |

If redberry sits in missile instalation, he will never hit moving target. Yes they are dumb.
Instalations are okay. They are still very easy to destroy. Tanks (rail,blaster) needs half a clip to get one.
ADS little more.

The absolute range of the missiles is 250m, they were made consistent with HAV missiles so they explode when they hit that range.
The old missile AI would shoot at dropships across maps, for the record.

I really like it. It makes the battle field multidimensional, you are encouraged to work with a ground team to help neutralize AA positions. You can destroy the 2x or even 3x as fast with gunners ;)
Do you even teamwork bro?

I know where all the turrets are and i know when they drop, its just repetitive. Its not even fun killing the damn things.
Yea, like a warbarge but it drops support stuff =3
Why must you use prototypes?

That is the original intent of the redline and such.
It is however a very abused mechanic.
By that i speak of the many people that sit in the redline sniping or using rail / missile turrets to take out enemy's from afar and with little to no worry about being hit themselves. |

Probably because you are focused on taking out the turret (which has more hps now) and the AV on the team is concentrating on taking you out.

Thats the point its a lose lose. If i attack the turrets the av gets me, if i attack the av the turrets get me. |

They dont shoot at you, ignore them, or use a tank first, to remove them.

Have you considered getting a teammate on your dropship? You could drop him off behind the enemy and he can quickly assassinate the guy and hack the turret? Pick him up and repeat for other turrets? Or do you just want to fly around solo and uncontested and milk WPs? Tactics and teamwork, right?
Best PvE idea ever!

swarm nerf you mean? unless you are talking about all those AV specialists who use basic swarm launchers for the challenge? most of those Pro's run in militia gear because they are just so god dam OP. the advanced buff is negligible to non existent and where it counts at proto level there has been a nerf.
all i see is people crying that
a) they are not getting their +100 WP as easily and just like us on the ground getting war points has an element of risk. infact many scrubs would call in tanks solely for this stage of the battle before recall.
b) turrets are worth manning now because they do not die when looked at by a veichle. As a result they have a tactical point in battle, they restrict the movement of vehicles when red so working together with infantry is key at the start of the battle. Bear in mind the increase in blaster turret accuracy has made them alot more deadly to infantry too.
c) low SP players can kill veichle users......just like they can infantry......wait i know its wrong piliots should not be able to be killed by anything less that teams of pure AV specialists with full proto. |

Then you should change tactic.
Take out AV first if they are out of redline.
If they sit near instalation then take tank and shred it. Gunlogi with 2x hardeners and you can take AV fire all day.

So now people can sit in the redline and railgun 300M out of it while being almost indestructible. 12000 HP turret requires 25+ prototype XT-1 missiles to blow up. That is over 25% of ammo on the python. Using a incubus, It is impossible to kill redline turrets because the thing shoots so freking slow unless you want to spend over half the game trying to take out one turret.
Well an Incubus with small rails is shooting kinda fast in fact...

Dropships are still classified as a support vehicle, teamwork is imperative to have a good game.
