Why do I stand out side a stationary turret when controlling it? People should be forced to blow up the turret to kill me. |

LOL pro turret camper here it seems
they need to bring back the OLD turrets from the 1st builds that was on the craterlake maps
these bs turrets they have now ppl just sit in them completely safe from anything other than forge gun or tank fire
the old turrets at least u know if u wanted to be a scrub and camp it all game u were at risk of gettin sniped or someone with good aim could embarrass u and shoot u out of it which made turrets less scrub friendly than they are now.
flanking was also a way to get someone out a turret in those builds, not anymore......and CCP says their game is "harsh/hardcore".... |

You're supposed to be outside the turret to control it, the railgun turrets are bugged. |

Otosan Oonaki kills lots of people just hanging out in railgun turrets. What's your excuse? |

If anyone gets close enough to kill you in a large turret, you deserve to die. |

You know how much HP those have?
It takes tanks to kill them.
That's just not balanced.
Swarms barely hit them |

They're hardy, but you can kill turrets with a swarm launcher from an elevated position. It's the stupid targeting system sending the missiles towards the icon at the installation's base that's the problem.
A friendly dropship gave me a lift to the top of one of the old camping towers the other day and I cleaned the map of enemy turrets with only one nanohive. |

 If they're going to stand there In line of sight, of something that Doesn't move... Who am I to say no?
I wholeheartedly, and openly admit that my scores are 40% railgun turret, 60% snipe. One crushed Hand, One overworked "off " hand. I'm just happy that I can still play games at all.
Turret-Jerking.... It's just insanely fun... 600m Range Sniper rifle... With Splash!. Lead your shot right and you can keep dropships at bay (if not snipe their gunners) , Blow up Tank drivers who don't expect anyone to actually USE the installations, and shoot Onikuma flying through the air like Clay pigeons.
I don't ride in tanks this build, but the possibility of the Main gun being separate from the Driver should hopefully give people nightmares.
As to the survivability of users in varied turrets.... 2 builds ago the old turrets were just a way for me to farm kills at extreme range on people in the open, Free headshot, leaving the turret as little more than Farmable points to the first person to blow it up
These new ones are supposed to give SOME cover, but leave the user exposed to attack from the rear, or well aimed splash from the front/sides.
I'm of the mind that ALL turrets should protect the user against all but Concerted A/V, As the current Railgun installations do.
With a big BUT...
A turret user should be sealed inside, and require an "inconvenient" amount of time to leave, Meaning if you decide to be a Turret-jerk, You go down with the ship. |

OP - Agreed.
It's like this with LAV's and Dropships too.. illogically.
Engineers in Dust world like to make technology that exposes it's passengers, gunners and pilots for NO logical reason.
If you can kill a gunner without killing the vehicle/turret.. what are the swarm launcher / forge gunners supposed to do? |

BTW you can kill a turret really easy with a swarm launcher if you dumb fire the missiles at it, just pop up aim fire off all your volleys at once and watch the gunner die with the turret. |

1 you will blow up when standing outside the turret aswel due to the explosion of the turret,
2 ur not mounting a turret, the turret controls are on the outside. next time ur near a turret, run around it and take a look; |

A forge gun is designed to take out turrets I think 4-5 shots is all it takes |

Proto Forge will take out an turret in 3 shots with the current nerf in place. Not sure on the standard or advanced. |

Hey, it's cool. I never have any success in those turrets. If you enjoy it, knock yourself out.
Also, sucks about the hands, man. Condolences. |
