Sentry gun mod to make sentry guns usable if not host? Since Overkill could care less about fixing old bugs
I reported this bug https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B-iBjIZXl_c half a year ago and it seems Overkill could care less about a feature in their game not working properly (destroying many builds and potentially costing you the game) and it seems they have absolutely no interest in fixing it.
Was wondering if anyone knows a mod that fixes it. Would quite like to be able to use Sentry guns without the fear of suddenly losing 90% of my damage output and become almost useless in the middle of a game.

Edit: If anyones wondering the bug is caused by picking up a sentry gun when you don't have the ammo to place it down. Well has happened to me usually when I do that. Also run with 6 sentry guns. Also only happens when you aren't host.

So far i havent have a sigle problem with them (always host)

Also i picked up sentries when very low on ammo too and could place them back again no problem.

Unless you mean:
When i had a weapon that didn't benefit from ammo pickups like a misisle launcher , saw etc
When that weapon was depleted i couldn't place sentries even if my other weapon had full ammo.

That's the bug you mean? I thought it was intentional but yea that would be nice if it was fixed/corrected.

Other than that i didn't notice any problems.
Oops lol. I rewrote the title after I finished with the rest and didn't double check it. I fixed it.

Oh lol well i can't confirm that its 100% bug free cause i always host my heists unless i join someone's safehouse raid tho even there i didn't notice problems with sentries but then again i did very little of those as client so that's not much to confirm that it works 100%.

Have you confirmed the behaviour with an un-modded game?

Un modded meaning no major/game altering mods? Yes. Unmodded meaning no mods at all that don't effect it (such as hud)? No.

i'd just love a sentry gun balance mod in general. less damage, more HP, more aggro, more ammo, and you can repair destroyed ones. give them back their old job of drawing almost all of the cop's attention.

sentries right now carry overkill and mayhem missions but as soon as you hit deathwish one saiga dozer behind them and boom 2 guns destroyed instantly.

idk about everyone else but i dont want my sentry guns to give me the most kills. i want them to take the heat off of me and my crew so we can get the objective done as quickly as possible.

also, i think it's pretty ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ridiculous that i spend 46 points to have maxed out sentry guns and OVK thinks that letting them be able to be PERMANENTLY destroyed in a heist is balanced. people spend 26 points and get inspire for an infinite amount of uses, hostage taker for infinite uses, it's not like the ICTV suddenly takes too much damage and you end up naked. i understand they are equipment but comparing to stuff like med bags and ammo isn't fair. sentry guns are the ENTIRE focus of a build when a person takes them. it's like taking away sneaky bastard and low blow from dodge/crit players, or giving players a limit to how many cops they can convert in a mission. it's ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up you spend 46 points for a build that can, quite literally, lose all of its effectiveness unless you baby sit the sentry guns tirelessly.

Steam sure has some crazy censorship lol. Saying the name of a skill in a game is a no go for them lol.
I agree but I first want them to stop breaking suddenly during the game >.>.

After Steam started censoring "CSGO" if you put it in screenshot name or description
nothing will surprise me :PP

Its as dumb as Youtube censoring their own site links and timestamps to videos.
