At least if it's mouse controlled, you can use it well before you're forced out of it, or can have a decent chance at fighting someone off unless he/she is directly on you.

Make it mouse controlled but slow the turning rate drastically, I think.

Wow where have you been?

I don't think the turning rate should be slowed at all. When aiming turrets with the arrow keys you would have to line the shot up perfectly because it would sway from side to side and was extremely sensitive. The mouse merely removes this irritation from the game, and as Stefan and I have already stated for the rest of you, using a mouse to control the turrets won't make them spammable in every direction.
