Ah but smaller turrets could be aimed more towards giving back up in places those huge mother hubbards cant land or reach (Example would be indoor warfare which, from the look of that facility wallpaper, we're getting). Could also be useful for defending someone operating one of them for a enough time to allow them to get out and kill them (If the sentry hadn't already) or at least run away. Just because we already have a certain form of something doesn't mean we can't add another.
To prevent them from becoming overpowered, however, I'd say give them a three minute "battery" life, a decently small amount of health and the damage, of course, being set by CCP to where it's balanced. Other than that I like the concept but who knows. We might just have to stick with those big whales we have already :P |

ie you do nothing but deploy and the computer kills your enemy...
Bad game element. Bad Idea.
We already have AI that kills the enemy. And what in the name of names gave you the idea that it'd be your main source of attack. Sentry Guns throughout the gaming world are used as a defensive unit to watch your back while in a firefight. They are also used to create killzones, traps, etc.. I have RARELY ever seen, except for in TF2 and CoD, a sentry gun being plopped down on the frontline. For you to think of this as it's main use just isn't sane.
There are among MANY other ways that Sentries are used. And some of them will make this game even more tactical if implemented. You need to think of ALL the possibilities before you tear something that has hidden potential (But not hidden. You just wont look for it hard enough) down. |

I already assumed you would be able to call in the ones the size of garages, but one the size of a desk or chair would be nice, considering it wouldn't have infinite ammo, would take up a ton of CPU/PG space and would not last long at all without maintenance. You'd probably have to sacrifice your current clip to resupply it.
Then again, we'd need about, lets say, seven times the clone reserves if this includes grenade launching varieties accompanied by the possibilities of land mines.
Also, would it be interesting if Heavies could mount the heavy machine gun or forge gun so that others could use it in the inevitable event of their death. I am not saying it should be able to shoot by itself. That would be awful.
That last bit sounds........ AMAZING :D
