I love the look of the new turrets, to be honest. Though, are there any plans to change the way laser turrets work? Them having a projectile while the gun turrets are hitscan feels weird. I feel like both should be hitscan, with the laser turrets having an instantaneous "beam-line" from barrel to target.

Would make more sense that way but I don't really mind the way that it is right now.

Team Fortress 2 runs on the same logic. Quite objectively - it's hilarious. And cool.
