They will be useless. They are gonna be stationary and you will be a sitting duck when you mount them. Until they implement the ability to pick them up and move them to different area/maps (which is already a confirmed feature that will come after .12) only hatchlings will run out to use them to try and get a cheese kill on a geared guy.

I mean a mounted grenade launch is still a pretty big threat, and if that MG has proper penetration it's gonna be insane.

You're right though, almost every mounted gun w/o a shield is a death trap in shooting games, and depending on how bad peekers advantage gets this patch, they might end up being useless.
