The warthog turret was a pretty awesome weapon to be up against, but the covenant turret was utter utter cack (although i did like it).

do you think the shade will be upgraded? cos it looks hard, it fires fast and far but was pretty weak. i never once thought "crap! a shade!!". i would like to fear them.

Yeah, heres some ideas:

1.i think that the rear of the turret should be protected, its quite easy to kill the alien using it. Maybe the covenant could surround it with some sort of shield, like the elites.

2.I also think it should be more accurate, maybe reducing the three projectiles to just one
really powerful one.

3.Maybe Bungie could join two shades together, back to back, Ive always loved that idea.

4.And what about given the shade a scope.

I like that idea. I've often waded into battle just ignoring the turrets. As long as you kept moving they had no chance of ever hitting you.

Now, if you want scary suppression fire.... how about a Needler cannon? It fires at about four times the rate and doesn't fire them in a straight line. That way you have multiple needles coming at you from varying angles.
