Why do ppl hate it so much? although it does look weak i can be useful in some scenarios. it seems like people are using it offensively but it needs to be used defensively.like use it to watch your back or use it to defend a flag or something.also you could use it to flank more than one person or to double team an overshielded spartan. the only problem is is that it can be destroyed easily. if 343 wanted to make it truly balanced then they would increase the ROF by just a little. and make its shots travel a bit faster. and maybe make its shields a little stronger as well.
I’m glad its not OP TBH.

People do?
I like it, personally. It will give me a slight edge while sniping, my team mates can go about and do what they need to do. Meanwhile, I have the auto sentry to aid me slightly if I get jumped in a close range encounter.
It’s not enough to straight up kill someone in many cases, but it will assist me just enough to remove the immediate threat.
It’s very good for defensive play styles and the like, in gametypes like CTF are where it will actually begin to shine. It’s a new element, and I like it. It mixes things up, and can help buy enough time for a team mate to come to your aid.
I hate it because it doesn’t team kill.
I love team killing.
Who are these people and where have they been?

Team kill as in betrayals or as in it helps kill like a team?.. Because it does the latter.
Now that I won’t feel obligated to pick sprint every time, I can experiment with my AA choices. Auto sentry actually seems pretty cool, and I haven’t really seen any hate for it yet.
I really don’t see many people using auto sentry, not because people hate it due because it’s underpowered or overpowered (whatever you think) but because it really isn’t that useful imo.

Betrayal
Because it’s an unstoppable death machine that fires a Tyrannosaurus rex with shoulder mounted great white sharks that shoot spartan lasers from their eyes and breathe fire. So OP.
I’ve never actually seen any hate for it. It doesn’t take much to take one down and once the player who spawned it dies, then it leaves the battlefield too. I like it 
I haven’t seen anybody saying they hate it. People do however say it’s underpowered. But by most people’s logic something can only be overpowered or underpowered, it is never good enough. 
private message me if you use the auto sentry, I’m curious what a team full of auto sentry players who stick together can do in 4 vs. 4 slayer. For now, I can only imagine what this will be like. If you’re open minded enough to experiment, lemme know.
I haven’t had the chance to use it in multiplayer yet, but I know that in campaign it was incredibly useful. I assume that it was significantly nerfed for multiplayer?
I actually got an Overkill with it once. I placed it in the middle of a fight and then ran off to grab the flag. Next thing I know the announcer, in his amazing voice, boldy states “Overkill!”
I guess my team wounded the other team and my Auto Sentry (named it Sparkitus) stole their kills.
Are people just going down the list just trying to find crap to complain about?
I’ve been messing around with it in multiplayer.
I like to deploy it when I see an enemy is about to come around a corner so it will shoot them and it makes it easier for me to win the 1 vs. 1 fight. But, this assumes that the enemy is stupid enough to come around the corner since they can see the auto sentry on the radar or that they also don’t have a power weapon.
My strategy is I’ll usually stay with the team and I’ll stay in the back during a firefight while the enemy team is engaged with my team mates, I will deploy the auto sentry to snag some easy assists and possibly kills.
The auto sentry is also good for use as an early warning system. You can see it turn red when it detects an enemy nearby.
It also can tell you where enemies are at by the location of it’s projectile.
In Big Team Infinity Slayer, even if you die, sometimes the auto sentry stays out a bit longer; this could be a glitch.
I use it in my Slayer loadout. I have a suppressor, magnum, frags, and autosentry. Like someone earlier said, I use it to get assists and gain fire superiority.
My fiance uses the auto sentry while I use the rejuvenation field witch I am surprised doesn’t have any hate at least not yet because it makes it possible to take on 2-3 at a time by yourself and…How are you a master of unicorns?
wow i forgot i even made this thread lol. either way now that i look at it the auto sentry is getting quite popular. i remember when i was playing slayer me and this one guy both deployed our sentries. SENTRY FIGHT!!!. lol it was pretty funny. and then i even weakened someone to the point were the sentry killed him himself.
but someone above me said that the use the suppressor with it. can anyone explain to me how they use t efficiently cause i have never been able to do that. i use the light rifle with it because with burst fire it is slightly weak but one shot with the A.S would help a ton.
