Turret usage at the 2:10 mark

Quite an impressive explosion on that thing; it's "turret" though, fyi.

Ok that's freaking awesome. I can see those turrets could be pretty effective.

Bravix · 2012-06-14, 07:50 PM

Good, they'll actually be useful now.

Mirror · 2012-06-14, 07:59 PM

Looks excellent but then again what doesnt.

ThirtyK · 2012-06-14, 08:13 PM

This made me wonder if they will have ragdoll physics. And explosion like that would throw someone quiet far. Anyone know if they will have physics?

Looking good.

That looks pretty damn good

I have no idea why people are spelling it turrent now either. It's completely incorrect and isn't originally a British spelling either.

She's doing it wrong... so is everybody else spelling it that way.

Anyone else think the turrets are too exposed?

I felt they were pretty useless in PS1 after roughly the first 10 seconds of any base defence due to being too exposed.

could do with gun emplacements in the walls?

Unlike PS1 iteration, they look pretty powerful. It's a trade-off.

ya. just went back and counted. 6 shots to kill a vanny, assuming it started on full health and hadn't been mauled by a cactus, seems fair enough.

How does that compare to an upgraded PS1 turret?
