New Name = Current Name
Small Cruise Missile = Standard Missile Small Ballistic Missile = Rocket
Medium Cruise Missile = Heavy Missile Medium Ballistic Missile = Assault Missile
Heavy Cruise Missile = Cruise Missile Heavy Ballistic Missile = Torpedo
thus you have a consistent system.

This seems silly and unneeded. So CCP will probably do it.

the other weapons have consistent naming systems. consistency is a good thing. it would also literally take about 10 minutes of a devs time. rename all the missiles, rename all the missile launchers. update their descriptions. done.

No, because missiles wouldn't have interesting names.
Besides, missiles are different to turrets. If you want T2 large guns, you need T2 meds and smalls. If you want T2 torps, you just train for them.

IMO best response. Missiles do not require training of a parent tree of skills to gain access to bigger launchers. If you're truly looking for consistency, you'd probably want to make that a requirement at the same time readjusting the rank of missile skills to work like turrets.

Edited by: Black Dranzer on 28/08/2011 04:50:35 Find:Replace "Small":"Light" and we've got a deal.
Edit: What we really need, and what we've needed for ****ing ages, is Meta Levels on the weapon icon. No, really, I don't give a **** if it's a Hydrocarbon Phase Pulse Modulator instead of a Terminal Loop Hyperthrust Driver. I just want to know which one is the damned Meta 4.

There is nothing wrong with the current naming scheme. Your idea just makes it difficult op.

Originally by: Denidil Edited by: Denidil on 28/08/2011 05:48:02 New Name = Current Name
Light Cruise Missile = Standard Missile Light Ballistic Missile = Rocket
Medium Cruise Missile = Heavy Missile Medium Ballistic Missile = Assault Missile
Heavy Cruise Missile = Cruise Missile Heavy Ballistic Missile = Torpedo
thus you have a consistent system.
Your naming system is too difficult... I suggest following...
New Name = Current Name
Baby Banzai Banana = Standard Missile Tiny Vibrating Cucumber = Rocket
Teenage Mutant Ninjabanana = Heavy Missile Average Motorized Buttplug = Assault Missile
Oversized Assault Tomato = Cruise Missile Huge Inflatable Sharkfish with a twist = Torpedo
--- This is one of the moments where we look at what CCP does and less of what they say. Innovation takes time to set in and the predictable reaction is always to resist change |

The names are not a mess. There is only one name thats bad "Heavy assault missiles." That name should be simply changed to "heavy rockets."

leave the missile class naming system as it is - but for the love of god, unify the damage type names. it should be scourge heavy missile, scourge rocket, scourge cruise and so on
