Sentry and E.M.P. genade

Post by Meowtist » Sun Jun 04, 2017 11:57 pm

What about a sentry? you get it a item like grenade,mines,c4 and these, when throwed will be up,and you can put weapons on it,like a sniper, the sentrywill act a player with a sniper (not walking), or shotgun, or a bazooka, or any weapon, throw a melle weapon,etc.
You can destroy it shooting,kicking,punching,exploding, but the E.M.P. grenade will disable it, and you approach the disabled sentry and turn into your own! (The E.M.P. grenade will be the same slot as mines and grenades, like the sentry)

PREPARE YOUR POPCORN BEACUSE THIS COMMENT IS LONG!

What do you mean it will be thrown? Are you saying we should carry a metal turret in our hand? Or do you have the idea of us being the engineer from TF2 who carrys a magical box from which a sentry comes out magically? This is way too OP and it isnt needed in the game. Just imagine picking up 3 sentrys and setting them up on the map, you will immideatly win! And we all know that if we fire too many bullets at someone that it will stun them. So imagine a rapid firing sentry just shooting you so fast that you fly in the air (beacuse SFD's logic is just mind blowing). Putting different guns on a sentry is also TOO OP! Just imagine 2 friends acidentally got set in the same team. And now they both pick up sentrys. Now put it in a room and sit somewhere and relax while you watch your enemies die painfully...yeah, the sentry would be an insta-win feature. I mean, yeah. The bazooka does exist but it only has 3 rockets and it has a down side where players can ride into you and immideatly kill you. BUT! If you didnt get killed you could still only kill 3 players, not the entire server. Beacuse the sentry rapid fires it could make guns that can only shoot 1 bullet per shot (pistol, carbine etc.), shoot like an m60. Oh yeah! I forgot to mention the m60! Beacuse it already shoots super fast, this gun could shoot as fast as sonic! Maybe even faster! And if we can destory the sentry with anything, does that mean we can just grab the sentry and throw it off a cliff?! Well that would be cool...but not balanced! Beacuse you still have to survive its shots or at least avoid them just to destory the sentry! And how much do we have to punch, kick etc. to destroy that damn thing?! You: But dude! You can just grab grenades or just shoot it from a very long distance! Me: Yeah you can do that...but it will still take very long beacuse sentrys are made out of metal, not human skin! There are alot of more bad things about the sentry but lets talk about the E.M.P grenade.

HOPEFULLY YOU HAVE ENOUGH POPCORN LEFT TO END THIS COMMENT!

Ok, so time for the E.M.P grenade! Well, this weapon is kind of balanced, BUT IT STILL DOESNT GET RID OF THE SENTRY! Actually, no! This weapon isnt balanced beacuse if you see this weapon dropped on the ground you can just pick it up and steal the sentry! By the way! If the owner of the sentry is near the sentry, he can just claim the sentry back! Players will just stand near the sentry and the E.M.P grenade will just be useless! So the 2nd idea in this topic is completely useless!

CONCLUSION

The sentry is too op and the E.M.P grenade is completely useless! If Gurt or Hjärpe can make the sentry balanced, and make the E.M.P grenade not useless, then this idea is great! But otherwise this idea is not balanced and it is useless.

HOPEFULLY YOU HAD ENOUGH POPCORN!

I can't imagine a sentry, being thrown. Firstly, you will need to carry the sentry parts in your inventory, like a normal gun, and after that you will be able to make a sentry, but you will need to stand still and wait some time and after the sentry is put down, you will be able to carry it like a dead player's body. Secondly, i think the sentry will have some kind of metal bar, which acts like a cover, but if the sentry is destroyed while you are still in that cover you will get huge damage to your player. E.M.P nade is also a useless addition, since you will only need it for the sentry. Altho, i like the idea of putting different weapoons on it, that would be really awesome to put an M60 there, and just keep looting the map till someone aproaches, and still get's shot. Also, maybe putting different weapoons on it would have different range? Like, if you put a pistol there, the sentry will only activate if the enemy is close, and sniper if both, close and far, so it won't be so OP.

But still, if it gets added it gonna be a game breaking feature beacuse you will always win if you pick up a really fast shooting gun.

I like the idea of picking up a sentry with a tripod and tracking or whatever you would use to make a sentry, setting it up, and sacrificing one of your guns onto the sentry. Maybe it could have a pretty small hp pool as you could knock it over from shooting out a leg. Emp I imagine would disable the sentry for a set time, and if you rushed it and kicked it over during that time you could grab it. I'm thinking maybe it has a capped fire rate or it falls over from recoil, so most guns would be good with it but with others it would fire slower than normal, decreasing the potential of an M60 turret.
