So now that the new Specialist Charlie is seen with a mini-gun/turret, what are some of the spots on the maps which this specialty may most ideal?
In an elevator?
On towers to challenge aircraft?
Choke points like the wall openings on Renewal?
On the back of an ATV (heh)?

Yes
I'm curious on how DICE balanced it and what roles they intended it to fill.. Can it rotate 360? How far up can it look? Is turret speed artificially slow like the tank turret? How is the DMG versus air vehicles? What's the spread like at range? How exposed is the operator? Does aim assist work with it? How long does it take to deploy? If the operator gets killed or leaves can another specialist use it? I assume this would be a OHK anywhere with the M5 or Lis Rocket?
@mrtwotimesOne thing I know for sure, it will be Hell to push through chokepoints protected by Irish cover + sentinel and minigun from crawford.
The only thing that can push through that are tankshots, sniper headshots and 30mm/50mm rounds
E: And if someone play dozer and he don’t get blasted by explosive spam
@mrtwotimes
Not to give you any ideas, but just imagine this thing in a tight corner and say a Irish Trophy system right behind it. So nothing in terms of explosives (I guess not even tank shells?) will be able to destroy it.
I know it must be hard to come up with new specialist ideas, but did it really have to be THAT stupid and obvious to exploit?
@mrtwotimes I'm going to see how it works out in the underground tunnel between B1 and B2 on Orbital Breakthrough. I think it'll work alright there. Could be quite nasty in certain parts of Exposure too.
It's going to do the same damage as Borris' turret and have the same fire rate. It'll do as much damage to an aircraft as the minigun on a LATV does to one.

@Duana_DDThe trophy system does not stop tank shells
You can't land tank shells in every single corner of every building
People will seek out the best spot where they won't have to worry about a flank or vehicles
The penetration on the shields needs to be similar to what vehicles window do otherwise you will be able to just sit in corner with a sentinel and have nothing contest you
Even if you can kill the gunner through the shields it is more than likely gonna be a pain in the butt to deal with if the damage and accuracy is any good
I cant wait to spam the hell out of it
