So instead of just unlimited ammo for said mounted gun why not make it finite (like 250-500) and have certain vehicle ammo depots around the bay area? that way there is less spam, no render problems (i hope) and we can finally have the mounted gun everyone wants.
As much as I want it to happen,sorry to disappoint bro but Trion is busy on RIFT and no time with Defiance.What this game needs while waiting for dlc is loot boost weekendOriginally Posted by Jayx
You wanting it does not equal everyone wanting it. I personally couldn't care less if there's a gun turret on the truck or not...actually...I prefer it without one.
There's enough morons using vehicles as weapons and blocking everyone's view already.
You rookie?cause most of the veterans of this game are gone.Or are you naive like me that believe this game is gonna get better ?
My understanding, listening to the old livestreams, isn't really a turret would get spammed at arkfalls (even though it was mentioned prior to the raptor release). The real issue at hand is that gameplay on a certain console is so bad, that the passengers in the raptor were lagging out and the turrent really exacerbated the problem.
I really don't foresee a problem with the Turret on the Raptor. I don't know how it shoots but Im willing to be it works no better then the SAW.
And now that we get weapon XP at Ark Falls players would be short changing themselves from leveling up their guns if they decide to use just the Raptor Turret.
If the gunner has a driver willing to drive them around at Arkfalls then more power to them for working together. If its just a single guy in his own truck posting on the turret then he is not going to rob players of their kills because he wont get the angles to shoot everything, he would be stationary.
And if he is just shooting the crystal/ark core then that would be no different in what players on foot are doing anyway.
I for one think Raptors with Turrets at Sieges would be awesome to see.
We are ark hunters not a military force, neither the EMC or the Collective would be very happy about a bunch of as far as they are concerned renegades having enough firepower to seriously challenge their control of an area, so for me it just doesn't fit the lore. Plus there are already enough people abusing mechanics I'd really hate to turn up at a fall to find a clan driving round it spamming fire from 20 vehicles, perhaps if the turret was only available to use if the raptor is full, but even then its unnecessary especially when you do not gain weapon XP from shooting crystals so no downside for using a turret and players like myself that have maxed every weapon skill could prevent others from doing the same by killing everything. Minor arkfalls simply don't have enough room to have multiple raptors driving round either shooting, running over or obscuring enemies from those on foot, plus its just lazy.
They should allow the usage of turrets but you wouldn't get points for damage, just Rescue Kills or Avenger Kills, this would also apply to vehicle damage. It would reduce these tactics to a support role only but won't place a stigmata on the tactic either i.e. the tide of battle shifts and the enemy has the upper hand laying waste to fellow Ark Hunters but the "Dude in the Turret" saves the day! In a situation like that there would be a lot of players being targeted by enemies that it would assure the "Dude in the Turret" a bunch of Rescue and Avenge Kills but won't setup situations like,"We need some heavy fire, someone pop a vehicle and get in the turret." and everyone else is thinking **** that, you get in the turret, I'm not lossing out on points just so you don't have to crawl around or extract.
