Firstly you know I'm messing with ya a bit in the last post. If I agree it's not easy to get a direct hit with a pilot flying like a burning pigeon. And some people really awful shots in this beta. They'll get better. 10m blast is pretty mad though. The point is, railguns and blasters are comparatively useless. I know the railguns are good against vehicles, and blasters are ok, sorta. But the missile option is just "better".
Also, there were militia small railgun and blasters last build. The missile was still the weapon of choice. Oh and blasters were REALLY good last build. But everyone still took missiles. |

Missile Turrets are really the only effective solution when your trying to kill infantry on the ground at any distance.
A blaster makes it too difficult to shoot targets at range, which if its on a tank or drop-ship means suppressing fire is totally useless.
And thats pretty much the role of a dropship or tank, if infantry are allowed to get to close to a tank nothing stopping someone dropping remote charges and thats it end of story. A dropship has to come in high/very low to avoid small fire and attention of swarm launchers/forge guns and the like but either way it has to be moving fast. If any dropship floats still for any time its a dead one. At high/medium altitude blaster is useless. At low it doesn't pack enough punch for decent suppressing fire if an enemy pops their head out you want to take them out in one hit.
Missile launchers are the only option that give you versatility in all situations at the moment.
But I do agree it should have an ammo counter which runs out and then needs reloading. |

Very effective, easy to use, no reason to put any other type of turret on my tank for my gunners. If I'm worried about vehicles I'll put on a railgun and keep my gunners using missile launchers, and hope that someone jumps in.. |
