Change for sentries

[element109]

Require tech class to equip sentries in the lobby, but any class can carry and activate them in game.

This would mean that each tech could take only one sentry from the lobby. Cheat convars would be created to disable the limit but would be enabled by default.

Is there a balancing issue right now with sentries?

[wawawawawawawa]

On hard diff, it's mostly used to block spawn using stairs, and indeed it can even create lot of lags on like rng4 if you block near some infinite/very big spawner.
On casual diff, I guess it makes ppl just hide at start, and melee? That could be silly but work fine on like vegas, in low diff and/or fist offhand
Not entirely sure there

This topic is quite old, and no balance changes are planned for sentries right now. Closing it.
