Hiya i was reading through some posts and someone mentioned the fact that turrets look a bit small.. and i agree with them, as it is now battleship sized turrets are minature on ships.. on the megathron they are ment to take up a huge part of the ship yet they look more like medium weapons, and the same to medium weapons on cruisers/bc.
So my request is that the size of turrets in eve is double or atleast increased

Edited by: Sheriff Jones on 07/03/2007 13:24:23 PArk a frigate with small guns next to a battleship with large guns and you'll see that those "small" battleship guns are quit appropriate in size
It's just proportions(sp?), the ships are bigger as well as the guns, but when both go up a notch, they seem "small".

yeah but it is difficult to believe that 80% onf your ships powergrid goes to function a gun about a 30th of the size of your ship..

I personally find it equally difficult to believe that the crusader can heft all those guns on its back. Last time i looked im pretty sure i saw a ship underneath all those pew pew's but i aint sure.

Ah you're talking that.
Well...let's see. Targeting systems, turret cooling systems, ammo loading(if not lasers, which are self explanitory why they eat powergrid), turret movement, all the wiring and consoles for the gunner, all the hardware for the communication between the gunner and the POD.....the list goes on

Stick a BS sized gun onto a frig, then you can see the actual difference.
Note, you can't undock/use them, but they'll go on in station nonetheless.

i was just talking to a friend about this the other day... they do look pitifully small compared to the ship they are mounted on. can barely see them on a megathron. i dont want technological advancement if its going to decrease the size of my guns! i got to have big guns!

If we want bigger guns, it will mean fewer guns also. Today a battleship has about 4 main guns. 2 in the front and 2 in the back. In eve terms that would mean only 2 high slots, since they occupy 2 "real" guns. I like 8 guns on my Apoc, but i can see the hardware advantages of only haveing 2 guns instead. Also, a geddon allready packs its guns very tightly. Large beams burry into eachother .

Since we are on the topic of the scale of turrets... What is up with the tiny sphere of the strip miner floating in the middle of the big black hole on the mining barges? -=^=-

There was a great post a few weeks back that calculated the size of the turrets, comparative to the size of ships, counted in pixels. Apparently, scale wise, the guns are a tiny bit too BIG
Anyone got a link for that thread? --------
