    Post Put "Enforcer" back into the A12

    I was playing the Frontlines beta yesterday and the only AI-controlled drone(The RSA sentry gun) was doing a good of holding an area by it's self. It was however balanced by it's large and bulkly size and could only rotate 90 degrees. Partically everything in FFOW is mindfully balanced and fun to use.

    Now back to 2142.

    The A12 Sentry Gun is the better one of the "combat drones" compared to the accipter. The accipter needs a patient squad leader and a squad that cares more about shooting everything it sees. The A12 on the other hand could in the past hold any area better than it could now. Now it is mindlessly stupid and underpowered. I expect in the a future warfare game that drones would play a big role in the fighting not the overused and ugly VOSS(which I don't use, every TG player seems to use for some reason-40 ammo duh)

    I want a buff for the A12. Here's what I want to see.

    *Put the health back to pre 1.25 levels and buff health even more by 25%
    *Make the A12 scan faster and only fire when there are enemies in front it's of position.
    *ON the titan, stop the A12 from firing behind walls and still have it scan and send out a warning signal that enemies are nearby.
    *There should be critcal hit points on the sentry so that it balances the buff in health
    *Change the look of the A12(Make it bigger to compensate for more health)
    *Give the sentry the ablity to fire a little bit above and bellow it's positon.

    Re: Put "Enforcer" back into the A12

    Personally I like the A-12 just the way it is. Any long-range engagement puts it at a total disadvantage, but up close you will be dead in a blink of an eye. The health is alreadly pretty decent.
    300 to 1? No problem. Might need more bullets though...

    Ya know, I think Sentry guns are second most feared things on the battlefield, next to radar grenades!

    Seriously, Sentry guns are at least half my deaths in a round, I swear those things are always out to kill me!! I think they should add a flamethrower to Spanky!

    You know, all flame weapons are in fact banned by the Geneva Convention, but then so were frag grenades. The problem with a floating flame-spitting, bullet-spamming drone of death is that it might accidentally set you on fire.

    I wouldn't want it any other way

    I'm fairly certain that the damage dealt by the support sentry drone has been increased in the 1.40 patch. I've died from it more often since the patch, and I find it to be a very good infantry deterrent.
    Fight!

    I use it because of the low kick, quick shot. Typically when I'm running in a squad, I'm one of the last ones to fire, because I put myself in the "main medic" position. So when it comes time for me to fire, it's usually because I'm A.) on the run, B.) One of the last people standing - so the enemy probably has low health, and I want to down them quickly and get to reviving, C.) Firing in tandem with 5 other guys - so it doesn't matter anyway.

    Sooooooooooo, you basically want the drone to do everything for you?? Yes, it is more powerful since the 1.40 patch and much more effective. Many people who had stopped using it, now pack it.

    Re: Put "Enforcer" back into the A12

    lol go write that one to DICE and see what happens...

    the A12 got a big boost in 1.4 targeting wise so there is no need for more health and it size is good if it was any bigger it would have to be deployed and built by an engi

    I want the accipiter a.k.a. spanky to get a railgun attachment, but in all seriousness spanky is a nice tool but she is quite fickle. Some days she is a monster and other times she just wants to sit back and watch me go to work on the enemy team

    Yet we still buy and love it, then we complain how Battlefield should be, but by the end of the night you can't wait for the next one!

    Re: Put "Enforcer" back into the A12

    If the crashing isn't fixed soon, like hell I'm buying another BF game.

    And as for the original topic, the sentry guns are far better since 1.4, not that they necessarily needed much love before that...
    They shouldn't be a "plant here and kill anyone who comes in this area" button. They should support you in holding an area.
