While I'm not totally opposed to the idea of requiring skill levels to use, I disagree with making them AI controlled.
Why should someone be punished for being good on a stationary weapons platform?
What you refer to as camping, I would refer to as defending/area denial - Most of my kills on blaster turrets are usually preventing opponents from hacking objectives, something which an AI simply cannot do as efficiently. |

As a former member of [CKA] (of the quake & tribes era) it drives me crazy to see so many campers; I'm slowly adjusting to it and am becoming more tolerate of camping in this game. If only because campers are easy to spot and in skirmish it can be considered defending rather than camping.
I'd actually argue there isn't enough (tactical) camping, the amount of times I've been able to simply stroll up to a enemy null cannon and hack it completely unopposed is unreal!
To prove my earlier point, I have trouble doing this if there's a turret around! |

Good point, never thought of it that way.
Still, I'd like to think someone would take the initiative now and then, regardless of comms etc. |
