Rattati, are you aware that these are accurate enough and have low enough dispersion to kill a sprinting assault with over 700 hp at a distance of 130m?
Is this how they were intended to function? I thought installations were supposed to be hard-to-crack AV turrets, not hard-for-vehicles-to-crack AI turrets.

Are the Missile and Rail Installations actually targeting and attacking Vehicles within 75 m. Internal testing does not show that they do.
Please expand on the Large Blaster, is the AI attacking out of 75 metres, unprovoked?
Rails don't shoot my tanks even if I'm sitting next to them - unless they're manned. I know a fix for that is coming.
Missile installations I'm not sure - I tend to stay away and destroy them from outside of 250m. Crossing the bridge on Border Gulch I THINK I've been shot at by them, but I couldn't tell if they were manned or not - lolscan range on my tank alt with all of his SP in vehicles, none in ewar.
The large blaster is shooting at you inside of a certain range, fairly close, without provocation. That doesn't bother me so much as the fact that, when manned, you can't get within 150m of the thing as infantry without getting shredded. The accuracy/dispersion on a tank-mounted Ion Cannon can't kill a heavy suit at 50m reliably. Why can the same class of gun on a turret installation fire as accurately as a scrambler rifle with tank blaster damage vs Infantry?

In the present state , installations arent targeting anything unprovoked. As far as the OP on Large Blasters... theyre not that effective against infantry, if your persistent with it , yes you can kill infantry with it but seemigly they have a lot of dispersion vs infantry.
3 different matches, twice in ambush once in skirm, killed by manned Large Blaster Installation outside of 120m. The longest was 128m. If the dispersion was where it should be, I might've gotten hit by one or two shots, but not the steady stream of fire that put me down in under 2 seconds at full sprint each time. A Blaster tank can't do it, the installation shouldn't either?
unless the installation is supposed to be that much better?
