Okay - so. Two builds ago we had these awesome turrets that were incredibly well fortified with actual platforms you could traverse or even use as cover.
In fact, we even had Small Turrets which were just awesome as it was a small vehicle turret mounted onto a large shield that pretty much had to be flanked in order to remove the person using it.
Now we have these gargantuan installations that, while seem fitting as they -look- dropped in from orbit, don't offer as much in the way of five guys crowding up into it waiting for a good Orbital Strike.
SO. Discuss. Which is better? Old or new? |

If only they were somewhere in the middle. Old ones were cool 4 the reasons you mention but the hight of the new ones makes them more useful cos of better arcs. Also new ones look rubbish. |

Old was better because ppl couldnt just camp the turrets all game for ez kill
u could of either flanked them or if u caught them off guard shoot the operator out the turret |

Might they both be in the end build? Maybe we were just working with one races installation type and now we're working with a new? We might just get both and then some by release. |

new ones are better. Being shot out of a turret in the old builds was stupid. |

Preferred the old ones for the OP reasons but as above ... the gunner position could use a little more protection. |

Rather than someone running up behind you and shooting your back as your face is in the installation? |

Old, they seemed like installations instead of a gun-on-a-pole like the new ones. |

lol dont camp in turrets all game
new ones are dumb. u have to destroy them to get the person out of it, ppl are too safe just campin in them all game.
if u got shot out the old turret then u DESERVE to die for a number of reasons
1. Poor aim - if someone shot u out head on with an AR then thats ur fault for having bad aim with a turret that can 1 shot ppl
2. Campin/poor situational awareness - if u get sniped out a turret then GOOD, u shouldnt feel safe campin a turret with the only way to get u out is to destroy it |

Didn't play the old build, so I can't speak from experience. The old ones sound much cooler though.
I imagine they will be re-added in a later build or at launch. |

Old ones were often a pain in the ass because it was hard to get into them and the rotation of the platform was often glitchy as hell. I prefer the uniformity of emplacement appearance in this build, however I do hope they bring back small emplacements. The small blaster emplacements kicked serious ass. |
