MANA TURRET!!! That's tremendous..

[Hmr85]

Yeah, like a BOSS!! That looks cool as heck.

[MyMeatStick]

Needs more duct-tape and barrels.

[Magpie]

Looks good man, shame this is not the new auto turret, Im gonna miss my spitfires

Hahah Hamma your sig, looks funny would not want to get on the wrong side of that Hamma hammer, Im sure I've seen that artwork style before

[Coreldan]

Hmh, I was expecting something more like Osprey etc, when I thought about a manned, deployable turret. I guess that does the job too, though

[Stardouser]

This reminds me...were there any remote control deployable turrets in PS1 like they had way back in Tribes? In Tribes, there were all kinds of turrents: Big permanent turrets on the outer walls of a base that were remote controlled from deep within a base, and deployable autoturrets but there were also deployable turrets that you fired by remote. Remote controlled deployables might have been a mod, actually, it's been 10 years since I played Tribes so it's hard to remember...

[Coreldan]

No remote controlled turrets.

Do we know if it will be possible to shoot the operator?
Wouldn't really make sense if we couldn't given how exposed it looks, but then they will be sniperfodder

[EVILPIG]

I guess the operator will not be incased in armor and shields. Maybe best operated by HA Soldier?


"How do you shoot women and children?"

[Skitrel]

Could really use a bullet shield, I refuse to believe that any future military wouldn't put bullet shields on standing turrets like that.

Something akin to HMMWV bullet shields or just anywhere you see a mounted 50cal.



You don't need to cover the legs up, just please, a bullet guard, I feel like it looks horrible otherwise. These are supposed to be professional militaries... This is more akin to something you'd see on a technical, regardless of it being standalone.



I really don't believe any military would just mount a gun like that, only insurgencies.

[Canaris]

has a bit of a mg42 style to it, I like it

[Geist]

Love the look, although I do agree there should be some sort of bullet shield on it. Even a small one would be great.

[Gonefshn]

Was not expecting the deployable turrets to look anything like this. My initial reaction was good. I think it looks fantastic and I can picture how cool it will be in game. However, I agree with some who have posted before me. Seeing this makes me concerned about the effectiveness of the turret. If a sniper or any soldier can kill the person using the turret just by shooting them or taking a head shot then this is not an appealing design. I was hoping when you were using a turret it would be like a stationary vehicle. By this I mean your survivability is based on the turrets armor and health values not your own.

Put simply. Love it as art. Skeptical of it in function.

Nice bit of kit : )
I hope, I don't have the pointy bit pointing at me : )
