That's great news CCP Explorer about the Noctis being ready for the 1st release. Perhaps I'm pushing our luck but did you happen to find anything out about the Tornado?

Originally by: Alyth Ferox and Eagle are fine, it's hybrids in general that suck. Rails should be the highest damaging long ranged turrets like blasters are for short range (just about). I mean they suck to fit on any ship that uses them, they use both cap and ammo and they fail to hit the broad side of many barns as it is already, wheres the harm in actually wanting to give people a viable reason to fit them over tachs and 1400s?
Maybe the surprise Christmas release is rails that don't suck!

I hope the christmas surprise is a CCP run and sponsored eve ship design contest where the members vote on ships and the devs pick the finalists. This would make my day.
Also one finalist per race for great justice :D
oh and rails getting buffed

Originally by: CCP Explorer No, I checked today and the fighter bombers will not be using real missiles anymore. Instead they will be using a damage effect and the visual effect will be like a missile. Originally the plan was to use a turret-like damage effect and damage calculations but after a review it was decided to go with a missile-like damage effect and damage calculations.
Maybe the same theory and practice could be used to 'fix' the Drakes... Just sayin...
Yes and no. It's on our roadmap to take a look at missiles and what we did for the fighter bombers would serve as a template or a starting point but overhauling all missiles is both a huge balancing task and we would need to come up with solutions for smartbombs and their interaction with missiles.

I didn't ask. It will take a while to fully model and texture it.

What do you mean by this CCP Explorer? As of right now RR smartbomb bs's are the only way to combat those laggy drake fleets.

I would imagine that changing missles as described would make it problematic for SBs to destroy missiles, so they would need to come up with a way to maintain that if possible, or somehow rebalace missiles.

And ofc dont forget Defender missiles!

Maybe make it so that they apply full damage to all missiles in a group?
But of course that would promote ungrouping your missiles so probably not a priority atm.

Originally by: CCP Explorer ... need to come up with solutions for smartbombs and their interaction with missiles.
Are there really many people that fit SBs to deal with missles?

Probably not, and I haven't seen anything other than the one Firewall video, but if that is indeed the only counter then it may be the next big strategy if larger alliances pick it up. Yea, that's a lot of if's and basically I admit I don't know what I'm talking about, but it does work, and changing that may break the only defense people see against them, causing emo rage and tears.
It'd be better for CCP to actually plan ahead and not jump right into this.

Originally by: CCP Explorer hen I talked to a lot of people on Friday to find out the status of the Noctis and it now looks likely that it will be included in the 1st release.
Since I got the ball rolling on getting some info on the Noctis and subsequently getting it pushed to 1st release (everyone should be thanking me, BTW, send ISK to me please) can I press my luck and have a Noctis BPO delivered to my lowsec base? I cannot be bothered to go across the galaxy to grab on in the Outer Ring. Thanks!

I've just had an epiphany about the December release!
Engine trails are back... but the trail is going to be sparkly Xmas snow-flakes. Also the AB/MWD engine noise is going to be replaced for the season with the sound of sleigh-bells. *jingle jingly jingle*

Maybe smart bombs shouldn't be the counter to missiles? (as in that should be thrown out the door altogether) Maybe something like more,... I don't know something to shoot them down? come on we could call them... I don't know, defender missiles?

They could make defender missiles to actually work ?
Oh and the patch sounds intriguing :)

Read from SC that SISI have new characters boxes with the option to use an auto-name generator and you also finally able to space out the middle name properly (e.g "Ivan The Terrible").
So do existing players get options to append a surname or petition a spacing change? |
