What does a turbine do for black ops 2?

Answer 1

In Zombies, the Turbine is really helpful.

The Turbine is classified as a buildable, requiring you to "build" it. It can be "crafted" by collecting the parts in the bus top by going near the part and pressing the required button. It will then have to be "added" by going to the work bench and holding the required button (extremely dangerous if you are followed by a huge hoard of zombies). Once all three parts are added, any player can take it by going up to the work bench and pressing the required button. However, should you "craft" and pick up another equipment, the Turbine will be traded out and will be "dropped" causing zombies to go after it and possibly destroy it if it is not picked back up. The Turbine has many advantages as follows:

• It works as an excellent distraction to revive, reload, or otherwise just relax from a fight. If you put it down near a hoard, the zombies will "ignore" you and go after the Turbine. However, this can get the Turbine destroyed.
• It opens any doors that have the sign "You will need a source of power". To do this, put the Turbine in front of the door and it will open after a while. However, picking the Turbine back up will cause the door to close.
• You can buy Perks without turning on the power. To do this, put the Turbine in front of the Perk machine and you can buy the Perk after that. However, picking it back up will cause the machine to shut down, disabling your ablity to buy the Perk.
• You can "save" money by using the Turbine to open the side door in the Bus stop, rather than wasting money in the front door. You can (but not always) find a "bus part" in the room at the side which you can use to upgrade the bus.
• The Turret, another buildable, needs the Turbine next to it for it to function.
