Should we even consider in adding sentry guns ? I think that is a no no ? #126

I don't know, actually. Personally i don't have a strong opinion about it yet. I'll have to think about it.

interesting idea. personally, I like this concept; the issue is how to implement it well without breaking the game

I suppose it is a problem. At the end of the day, there is little skill involved in placing down a turret. It would be the offensive alternative to medkit: press a button, heal; press a button, deal damage to the enemy. Don't need to aim it, don't need to even participate in the fight.

It would be OP if it had a sniper weapon installed. So it would need to be bulletspam. But, that is just annoying. Now imagine a team of 5 turret users vs a team of 5 ordinary spammers. All of a sudden, there are 10 bulletspam sources vs 5. Good luck winning that.

I suppose that is why Engineer works in TF2, huh. His offensive arsenal is inherently limited; without his turret, he's got a shitty little pistol/shotgun combo. Here, though, i fail to see how you would prevent people from carrying a turret and a FAMAS.
