I think we can all agree that the ability to throw your space loincloth over the window of you enemy's pod, causing them temporary in-game blindness, is now an absolute necessity to prevent Eve dying. [insert random rubbish that irritates you personally] is further evidence that Eve is dying/thriving*

if any ship goes melee, it should be the Incursus. Mittani, where have you gone to? I miss you :( |

Actually I don't think the idea is bad at all, I've thought of it many times myself. For the naysayers, don't think of traditional "melee" - you have to adapt the idea to ships. Imagine some big capital ship with a maw on the front that could open up and swallow other ships whole. Imagine a ship with close range flamethrowers. Sky's the limit. |

I think the Serenity movie's Reaver ship grappling hook takes the cake for melee "I swear there are more people complaining over "nullsecers complaining" then actual nullsec people complaining." |

Does this mean I can now reach out of a my pod and hit miners with my ceremonial sword while we gank them with anti-matter?

Great to see that most E.v.e. players have absolutely no imagination or inventiveness. This game is going to go the way of all the other WoW-clones if the devs don't make efforts to keep up gameplay-wise with the other cookie-cutter MMOs on the market; I'd rather not see that happen, as I actually *do* enjoy this game a fair amount...
Eve pre-dates WoW so how the hell can it be a clone? Also, it is fundamentally different to other mmos for manifold reasons. There are plenty of ways for CCP to improve our game but grappling hooks and light sabres isn't one of them. |

Gallante blasters are the "melee" ship of Eve.
And Eve doesn't follow the traditional MMOPG class format in that it actually combines many of the class types.
Logis are both tanks and healers Carriers represent a new class of super tanks and super healers indentical to logis, but more uber + a DPS role. SuperCarriers represent a super-duper tank, super healer, also a DPS role. Dreads represent a DPS + tank role. Titans represent a tank + DPS role as well with the addition of a transportation role.
lot of redundancy it some of the roles. Others are skewed.

You'd be going through a lot of oxygen and hydrogen to keep the fire going.
Yes! Light sabers on ships that can do damage to shield, armor, and hull at the same time! |

No, this is a stupid idea and the OP should feel bad. Even in the stupid movie where they had light sabers, there weren't ships with light sabers strapped to them >< Unless we can somehow make Voltron or some stupidity, there's no call for swords, etc in this game. |

EVE-O is not in any way defined by any one ship being locked into a class the way other games do for their characters/toons/whatever.
A destroyer can also be "R/DPS"as well as "melee," for instance (LM Corax vs. Rocket Talwar, say. Or more to the point, each of those ships being able to fit and use either system.).
That's the beauty of EVE, and what makes it what it is: Anything can be anything anytime, within reasonable limits.
Please, keep your "other-MMO"-informed preconceptions well away from this one, thank you! In irae, veritas. |

I thought the whole idea sounded stupid, but then I pictured myself in a Stabber Fleet Issue, with a 100mn Microwarpdrive AND some kind of ramming spike/fist/horn in the highslots, overheating towards another ship in order to physically impale it.
I required no less than three paper tissues and a cig afterwards. |

Please stop comparing wow and other clones to eve, we do not need melee; we are in space! What do you propose some getting out of your pod and punching someone's ship ?? It's a stupid idea. We already have kinetic based weapons. This is eve it's unique and the best mmo. Go back to wow. |
