Upgrade to Sentry

Would be nice to see some upgrades to the sentry be available. 

Examples: 

Increase armour

Better ammo 

Better range

AA

Recon features 

If they were added without making it OP could make it interesting. It is already been nuked and not many use it now anyway. 

This could apply to both sentries.

    We had all these features on that auto-turret... and it was flat out broken, i still remember engagements where Boris players would rather place down their turret then shoot back knowing that the turret will most likely win the gunfight and they can be revived later or not...
    so no thanks we do not need these "features" back as i do not recall a single time seeing anyone ask for an autoaming turret in any previous BF game whatsoever so there is that....

    I agree with the post above. This would just make it overpowered again.

    No I don't mean just adding them in. I mean like you can pick options like you can weapons. So you pick increase armour and then you lose other weapon features to balance it out.

    @ro7hbard but why make it so much more complicated? the game as is is barely holding together why add more to make it worse?

    @ro7hbard yes it defeats any semblence of readibility again...
    so you can have what 5 differetn kinds of turrets with different deadliness you have to take into account.... making gameplay unneccessarily complicated for a feature noone wanted

    I could see something like that but as like a tactical upgrade type of thing for Hazard Zone. Kind of like how the grenade increase upgrades work great for Sundance because it increases both her smart grenades and regular grenades. It could be something that makes placed objects or rangers, like the sentry turret or vulcan minigun , more durable or something.

    Yea, it could be interesting add to gameplay. Ignore the whiny people 🙂

    A sniper turret that has a long reload time 

    AA sentry that is only AA 

    A sentry with a machine gun but is easy to kill 

    A sentry that has a slow shooting rate but is difficult to kill 

    That sort of thing 🙂

    Considering how deep our upgrade trees were in BFV's vehicles I can see more sentry gun setups a viable addition to the game.

    I also remember a previous battlefield game where you could equip and place a stationary short range AA launcher which was very cool. Might have been BF3.
