1. On a variety of maps its a common theme to build lines of turrets, the most effective counter to which is to attack said line from the side. However when a turret takes critical damage, it doesn't explode instantly but rather lingers for several seconds before it explodes, forcing the alien to sit and wait or run and escape while waiting for it to explode. I propose that with a bit of extra damage beyond critical, say half the turrets original hp, that the soon to explode turret could be made to disappear instantly rather than exploding, so a third tyrant slash would cause the turret to disappear fully instead of wait and explode like only 2 would.

no, just no,  :turret:  :turret:  :turret:  :turret: :turret: :turret:  :turret:  :turret: :tyrant:
if a rant was able to take down one turret completely in less than half a second, well...it's just dumb

7. The Luci itself should be changed to be a more powerful seige weapon and less useful for spam, I propose that it only be capable of fully charged shots, which would consume 1 ammo each of a 4 shot maximum, have a cooldown of 4-5 seconds between shots, travel through the air at 50-75% of the speed it does now, and do roughly double the damage over double the radius that it does now. With such a long cooldown and slow velocity, it would become nearly useless for spamming, yet it would be devastating to anything that was unfortunate or fool enough to be anywhere around when it detonated.

do you know how hard it is to take down a tyrant right now? in four seconds a tyrant can take down a battlesuit, eaisily, are you out of your firgging mind? and as it is, if you see a luciblast coming at you and u die, ur retarted unless you turn around and it's in ur face, havind a luciblast going 1/2 ft a second will just unbalance the game, you need help. oh, and the luci is a dretch killer, if you want a tyrant killer, pick up the chaingun
