Mackay is breaking the game
Seriously not much else to say. His ability in its current state breaks the game and creates infinite possibilities of corners you need to check with almost no downside to him. The cooldown isn't lon...

@FyrirArtur So you’re saying they should nerf the thing that makes him a specialist? He’s working as intended. They keep nerfing all the specialist items. Boris is now useless. Paik is less useful. The recon dude with the drone is garbage. If you just hate specialists that’s fine, I get it. Call for individual nerfs of the very thing that makes them a specialist is just inane. They’ll keep nerfing and eventually the specialists will just be another skin. 2042 is a hero shooter, as the devs intended.

Paik isn't useless she just doesn't hold your hand all the way to the kill anymore
- @InS_Hypno She’d been fine before they buffed her for some unknown reason, then the buff was way too much, and now she’s basically reverted. Boris was nerfed to uselessness. All the crying over specialist abilities is driving me bonkers. So is Squirrel girl fine now that her flaying suit flaps more? With a tiny jump she can float half a map. Is the new specialist ok? Yes until it starts to kill you more then it’s time for the nerf hammer! If we nerf everything then what’s the point of playing? Was EA and Dice correct? No scoreboard so you don’t see how badly you did? Participation ribbons for everyone!

I don't see the turret being useless being a bad thing. I don't miss having to empty an entire mag to kill one. Even while being next to useless they are still annoying since they lock on you through smokes and often spot you when you're on a flank or a sneaky angle
They should just give him another ability because automated turrets don't add anything valuable to gameplay
He is doing what he is designed to do, No issue with that.
I would like to see optional accessibility to the same areas he can get to though. I don't really understand why whole areas are essentially cut off from players unless you use McKay, Squirrel flying or parachute in (which is a 50-50 at best to even making it without getting shot).

Neither is Boris with his sentry gun. But keep complaining people, I'll gladly take some buffs to my trusty sidekick.
