I hate turrets because they are the only ai enemy in the game and generally are only an issue for vehicles. They do not auto lock onto a nearby dropsuit. I think it is vehicle bias. But honestly ttk is shorter from av (Especially nades) then anything else. I still find it strange that my scout can pop tanks easier then any tank can pop another tank.

It's not that turrets are hard, to deal with, but it is unfair that tankers have to deal with ai enemies while personel do not, as long as they do not shoot at them. I am not advocating removing them, just making the ai equil between the two. Either they shouldn't auto lock on when vehicles get too close, or they should auto lock on to personel when they get too close. At least then everyone in this conversation would be on level ground

Either they shouldn't auto lock on when vehicles get too close, or they should auto lock on to personel when they get too close. At least then everyone in this conversation would be on level ground  They are meant to keep those bullet immune machines called tanks from completely obliterating those infantry. They are not antipersonnel for a reason. Tanks have a huge advantage on the field and without the turrets as a first line of defense every open map would start with 4 tanks a side rolling in and we would no longer be a FPS, but a very poor copy of tank commander. The thing to remember is that the infantry are the meat and potatoes of the game and the vehicles are interesting side dishes. They are not meant to be invincible death machines that dominate the field with no interaction except from other tanks. Sure, they are fun and some people really like them, but in the end its a FPS not a tank battle sim. Those turrets help keep the tanks in check and in truth only kill really bad tankers. They are sub optimally paced 90% of the time and don't move.... All you have to do is spend the first few minutes clearing them and suddenly you are a few hundred WPs richer and have a clear path the soft infantry. They are meant to stop you from rolling in on the objective in the first 2 minutes of the game and dominating all the reds in the open. They require you to do some setup before you get to pad that KD. If you are not taking that time to setup then no wonder you are dying.
You are either willfully ignoring my point or are scared of tanks, as it is av can kill a tank faster then any turret, on a tank or otherwise. And I never said they had to be removed, but your presumption that we just need to clear the turrets is both boring and stupid. Firstly because they will most likely be hacked by blueberries like you first, and secondly because I don't need the wp. I prefer running my tank to destroy tanks, not squishy infantry so you can quit sweating & crying in fear of the big bad tanks. It makes no sense the ttk is shorter for av then tank v tank and you need turrets. Tanking is becoming worthless, av is more valuable in any match.

I love using the turrets but you can never beat a tank with one. Their rails outrange you, their missiles out DPS you and their hardeners outlast you. You can get lucky and catch one off guard but if they are looking to kill you, they can. Dropships on the other hand get destroyed by rail turrets. I also die quite often to unmanned railgun turrets as infantry.
Then quit shooting them, lol

I kill tanks with turrets, it's actually quite simple. go to a red turret, wait for tank, hack after he has looked away. Surprize! Works even better closer you are to their redline. Also instead of maning it the whole time, disengage after they get close or before they fire on it, ai takes over and you can focus on av for the kill
