An engineer secondary gadget/deployable that places a small turret that fires one singular rocket at any tank within its range+line of sight.

Pros:
-Accurate
-Dont require you to face the tank yourself
-Can set up a trap
-Possibly? Could hit air veichles more consistenly than manually (uses basic predictive pathing so isnt a lock on)

Cons:
-Do not attack players or light veichles (quad bikes)
-Only one rocket (cant kill a tank by itself, but will damage it)
-Takes rocket slot, and has less turrets than you would have rockets (4 turrets with 4 rockets total, instead of 8 rockets)
-Has a loud servo motor, which makes a lot of noise when moving and can expose its position

The idea is to have veichles needing to cooperate with players on the ground to clear out before the tanks push in
(Anti veichle mines barely work on tanks, mainly cuz putting them on a road makes them too easy to see for the tanks and the players)

The idea comes from how AA mines work in other games, but to have it work for tanks, and possibly aircraft but without having lock on

Ideas cool on paper, realistically this is just gonna get spammed in the safezone

#

why would it?

place multiple auto rockets near enemy spawn
tank/APCs/Helis insta fucked

#

If it was only as AA and similar to BF4 AA mine (short range, impares movement of heli for a short period, single shot) then sure

#

I can see it working as a niche thing

#

But against tanks too? Multiple per person?

#

Hell nah

#

We want vehicles to be able to get out of spawn, not keep them doing fuck all

#

yeah depends on their dmg and range

#

but i dont think we need any kind of auto turret

I can see it being an issue

#

Base camp is equally as much of a problem as someone sitting in the safezone refusing to move up and effectively doing nothing

#

This would effectively encourage both playstyles that harm the experience, especially with maps having points so close to the safezone (another problem but besides the point)

next bronze
#

how would sitting in spawn do anything? why should ppl start doing it?

Assuming its very, very long range i can see it
