Should players be able to activate the auto turrets that are equiped on the wraith? I believe that they should be activated, but they only do minimal damage and overheat quickly.

I don't think they should have put the autoturret on the wraith in the first place.

duh. no overheating though. i mean there is an unlimited ammo heavy turret on the scorpion. not to mention how slow and inaccurate the main cannnon can be. it needs it. bad.

It is already powerful enough. It was all about balance issues.

Yea its stupid that the AI is the only person that gets to use it. If they put turrets on the Scorpion and we can use them, we should be able to use the turrets on the Wraith.

Yup. But don't make it automatic. Just have the lil' turrets shoot like it would the scorpion. The damage for each is like a Plasma Rifle. But with faster firing rate and no overheat.

So instead of giving it the stupid boost switch it with the turrets

Well, you havea high firing rate, no overheat, and two of them. I think that would hurt. Vehicle or no. Plus we have the boost for close people and vehicles.

By the way. the turrets should be operatonal by pressing B. Like the Banshee. Boost has to stay in. IF a ped is too close you can easily get boreded. plus it speeds things up.

I would rather have the ability to boost.
AutoTurrets would be harder to control and I don't think they are strong enough or effective enough to keep other players from Boarding the wraith.

Adding them as AUTOturrets, would be too much to the wraith.

the scorpion tank has turrets, which is why it always pwns the wraith

Their strong enough to keep us off of them pretty effectively in single player.

psh. if you get a wraith underneath the scorpion and boost you send them flying in circles all over the level. seriously. it might take a few tries but it works.

auto turret should only be useable in campaing. tanks are bad enought in mulit allready only thing really that kills them is the rockets or other veihcles and rockets dont get close to tanks anyways unless there stuped. any ways how many people you see board a tank now adays unless the tank pilots a noob or like 8 people rush the tank from all sides its not happening lol.

This isn't a warthog, only one person can operate the Wraith anyways.

God those would be so freaking useful!!! Like in Quarantine zone when your surrounded by flood, if you could have something to hit the ones close to you with, it would be sweet!

The Scorpion Has a machine gun turret, i don't know why they didn't let you use those in H2.

here's a suggestion: if you like using the wraith's weapons, set up your games to have wraiths. if you like scorpion weapons, set up your game to have scorpions.

both have two forms of attack:
Wraith- boost & cannon
Scorpion- cannon & turret

why do people insist that the game must be balanced covenant v. human when both weapons sets are available to ALL players?
