The turrets in this game need a buff. It makes no sense that a heavy machine gun can be out done by an assualt rifle.
If they fired DMR rounds they’d actually be good.
Stationary Turret, Mantis Turret, Warthog Turret, all horrendously weak.
They give you increased RoF but in return fire a smaller round. Why? Shouldn’t the vehicle be able to fire at least the same size round as the rifles do?
So lame.
I beg to differ on those turrets as they always kill me in the DLC playlist.
Personally the turrets (un-ripped from base) need better positions to be of better use. It is hard to lock down an area that nobody seems to be most of the time.
> I beg to differ on those turrets as they always kill me in the DLC playlist.
They’re really only good if they get the drop on you, which isn’t saying much. Every time me and a turret walker have seen each other at the same time, I’ve been able to kill them.
The gunner ability makes them better, since they can actually strafe, but still they are only good at very close range, even then their Time to Kill is comparable to the DMR, but at about 1/4th the effective range.
Yes you CAN get kills with them, but you shouldn’t be trying to after you get that dang achievement. By comparison to the other available options, they’re still inferior.
I agree the turrets are so weak
Stop with the nerf this nerf that threads. The weapons are what they are. Just use them as they are.

Agreed, i don’t know if it was lag but i am pretty sure the turret shouldn’t have the range to drop the shields of a DMR a reasonably long ranges…
I am not going to ask for a nerf or buff though. I just found that…odd.
Really? They’re miles ahead of the Halo 3 and Reach turrets.
In MY OPINION they need a buff.
I am repeatedly out-gunned by assault rifles on Shatter…that shouldn’t happen.
And Turret vs Saw? I do think the Saw should win as it is a power weapon and a turret is, well, a turret…but for the turret to not be able to strip the shields by the time a Saw gets a kill? REALLY?
Either the Saw is OP (not) or the Turret is way UP.
If you use them, you’ll notice that they’ve got as much bullet magnetism/auto aim as the DMR, if not more! They’re really powerful!

No they aren’t, they aren’t even the strongest weapon in their niche. They were barely used until the achievement came out. Auto aim is great for newbies, but a lot of players have been with the series for the better part of a decade, and the auto aim is a non factor for them.
Yeah, they’re weak even with pathfinder. Something is wrong when you start firing on someone with a detached turret only to have them turn around and DMR you before you can get the kill.

AHHHHH!!! NO!
-Yoink!- dude, people like you are the reason nothing gets fixed in games. Jesus, a complacent audience will get and take whatever is handed to them and not demand improvements for a better end product. This game needs fixing and 343 should have to fix it.
I really miss the Gatling turret from Halo 3. Every game should have some sort of portable minigun.
The Dominion base turrets especially need several buffs, as it stands now they’re basically just for decoration.

^ this right here
This is why so many people are upset by what Halo is now. I started with this series back in middle school on Halo 1 and have watched its multiplayer deteriorate with every iteration following halo 2. Single player is spot on but there are so many little issues that make MP not fun, or at least not as fun as it could be.
I’m not one to complain about weapons, I get what I can but the turrets don’t seem to do a lot of work done.

i disagree i think that halo 4 mp is very good, and no i’m not a cod fanboy as you will most likely call me to cover you’r own -yoink-,…sorry about that but anyway i feel that 343 did i good job they just need to fix the bugs.

I don’t think COD has anything to do with this so no, I won’t accuse you.
I think the MP in Halo 4 is good, but if it were to be tweaked and get rid of all the little irritating crap it would be even better.
