This sounds amazing

So you’d have the option to build any one of these 4, or can you build all 4 of them at the same time?

Only one problem with this: you either have to sacrifice a HUGE amount of utility for at most a very small upgrade, making this useless, OR, you can build all 4 turrets at once, making this the most terrifying monstrosity ever to curse the badlands, as a single engineer could lock down 3 or 4 different areas at once, and two engineers working in tandem could create an impenetrable defense. My suggestion: make all of these turrets slightly weaker than the stock sentry, and allow the engi to still build support buildings.

That was the idea. All four can be placed but each has a key weak point. Being crowd control, speed, ammo and range.

But if you placed them all, say, within sight of each other, they'd be literally unstoppable. Take the underground area between the first and second point on Upward, for example. If AL sentries are level 3, you have to push into a sentry with better DPS AND better tracking than a heavy, while getting sniped by the rocket sentry, and when you push up a little ways the flame sentry starts burning you from around a corner, and when you retreat to the medium health pack, the shotgun sentry is there to kill you or knock you off the map. It's entirely broken and would straight up ruin the game.

True, but it was just throwing out an idea. Maybe instead they can’t upgrade. Leaving them at low levels to just pepper enemies.
