Kassidus Gallente Hidden Agenda Deep Space Engineering	Posted - 2009.03.20 20:42:00 - [1] Edited by: Kassidus on 20/03/2009 20:43:51 Edited by: Kassidus on 20/03/2009 20:43:19 One thing i felt has always been missing from eve is dedicated science vessels. I was just gonna post this morning about how we should have them, but i went for coffee and actually drew some designs (really quick). Because its easier to get a point a cross if people can see it. So here are a few quick sketches of science class ships. Sciency These would be sub capital class ships, bigger than BS's but in no way desined for combat, although they would have 4 weapon hard points, to fit BS size weapons. , low resists and low ability to tank. The idea is that there just used for science and exploration. Ships would have bonuses to Gas harvesting, salvaging, in ship refining. scanning, surveying, and able to do some reverse engneering, and some other science like activities previosuly only done at a pos or station, like bpo baking etc. basically anything science related, hence the science vessel. Please feel free to provide any feedback or ideas you may have, and yes i know the pick isnt that great, took 20min lol. either way enjoy. EDIT ships are not to scale lol
ming goddess	Posted - 2009.03.20 20:45:00 - [2] maybe dedicated science ships acrss the board e.g. ship capable of making wormhole last longer "when all the mass it can `transmit` a wormhole has sent is depleeted it can send x amount more" just an idea
Kassidus Gallente Hidden Agenda Deep Space Engineering	Posted - 2009.03.20 20:47:00 - [3] Actually giving it the ability to use a modual to project energy into a wormhole from inside the wormhole to help keep it open, could deffinately be a usefull function.

MateraTTA Minmatar	Posted - 2009.03.20 22:00:00 - [12] I like this, also bring on a dedicated salvager.

Ruze Ahkor'Murkon Amarr No Applicable Corporation	Posted - 2009.03.20 22:04:00 - [14] Alright, I have to say, the Amarr design? Pure awesome. Bonuses: - Archeology - Hacking - Salvaging - Probing Strength - Tractor beam range Able to equip: - Gas Harvestor - Probe Launchers - Cloaks - Hacking/Archeology - Salvaging - Capital Class Tractor Beams Special modules designed specifically for this ship: - Mobile Research Platform: Works like a research array for POS. Capable of doing only a few jobs at once, research only gets done while ship is in space and un-docked and piloted. Stats: - These ships should lack in firepower. They aren't combat ships. A couple, non-bonus slots (four, probably) for BS-sized guns seems ideal. - They should have moderately high defenses, though. They are expensive, and meant for prolonged runs in space, thus need survivability. - They should have large cargo holds, as they are also part logistics ships for exploratory crews. Prerequisites: Covert Ops IV Recon Ships IV -Science Ships Originally by: 5pinDizzy Troll Score-o-Meter --------Failure----------\|\|\|-----------Succes------- 10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1--0--1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10

Sniper Wolf18 Gallente A Pretty Pony Princess General Tso's Alliance	Posted - 2009.03.20 22:40:00 - [16] Originally by: ming goddess maybe dedicated science ships acrss the board e.g. ship capable of making wormhole last longer "when all the mass it can `transmit` a wormhole has sent is depleeted it can send x amount more" just an idea I propose we also have a module capable of "widening" the wormhole (adding more mass bandwidth and mass total) I also propose we call this goatse module I Though, in hindsight; I really should put in some sort of spacer between my post and signature
Caiman Graystock Caldari Comrades in Construction	Posted - 2009.03.20 22:40:00 - [17] Very nice designs Originally by: CCP Whisper So you're going to have to do some actual thinking... Boo hoo. Cry some more.

TimMc Gallente The Black Rabbits The Gurlstas Associates	Posted - 2009.03.20 22:45:00 - [19] First off, those designs look awesome and somewhat Freespace 2 inspired from their science ships. Second, prerequisites should be seperate imo. Racial Science Ship - Advanced Spaceship Command IV - Astrometrics V - Electronic Upgrades V - Science V Alternatively have non-racial science ship and add Racial Industrial 5 to the list. Strength and/or Range bonuses would be great on these - Archaeology - Hacking - Salvaging - Tractor Special role modules would be interesting aswell, maybe a refinery array or gas processor. Definitely small though so would need an orca. BPO researching mode would be nice too. Defence? Maybe space for smartbombs and good EHP, or a basic warp core strength, but I think it should definitely be something that must be defended well.
Eran Laude Gallente The Astral Order	Posted - 2009.03.20 22:49:00 - [20] Bellatrix is incredible! WTB! CCP hire ze dewd nao! ----- Originally by: "CCP Whisper" Boo hoo. Cry some more.

Ruze Ahkor'Murkon Amarr No Applicable Corporation	Posted - 2009.03.20 22:53:00 - [23] Another concept is to actually make these based on the tier 2 BC's, or tier 3 BS's. I'm all for the ship designs. God, don't get me wrong. I love the Amarr one. But we still have T2 versions of ships that can be built upon.

Dyre Minmatar	Posted - 2009.03.20 23:11:00 - [24] Edited by: Dyre on 20/03/2009 23:12:51 I like that the Gallente ship follows their phallic/gonad obsession. It looks like an ovary with an oversized, stylized fallopian tube curled around it. Say it with me... Fallopian.... it's such a fun word to say aloud.... Fallopian! Flip back and forth between my link and the pic link... Intended?

Zaknussem Intrum Industria	Posted - 2009.03.20 23:25:00 - [26] Originally by: Quantar Raalsken vote for calling the mini one the Styx (unless there is already one that i missed being not a mini guy) Sadly, there is a ship called the Styx in EvE already. It's one of the NPC pirate frigates. Kinda resembles the Polaris. Quote: and call the amarr one the Testament (make it bigger >_<) Not a bad name. Something like that or Sage or Scribe is good. I like Bellatrix as a ship class name, but I disagree with the Caldari one being called Starling. Starlings are not very large birds, while the Science vessel would be enormous. Perhaps Owl is more fitting? Also, am I the only one that thinks the Starling looks like an armoured Voyager from Star Trek?

Dr Resheph Amarr YOU ARE NOW READING THIS LOUDLY	Posted - 2009.03.20 23:45:00 - [28] There are very few, if any, opportunities left in EVE to introduce new ship classes. Science vessel is definitely not one of them. The gameplay to make use of them doesn't exist, and even if it did it wouldn't be any good given how shallow similar features are. You people should stop looking to acquire the next shiny toy and ask they make the existing ships more interesting instead. God knows half of them have huge areas of overlap and redundancy just to appease the requirement for multiple races.
Nova Fox Gallente Novafox Shipyards	Posted - 2009.03.21 00:01:00 - [29] Blah competition... Your 'Enterpise' like ships of all races vs my archealogy ships for SOE. Few qualms about the idea, gas mining or any sort of mining should remain in the hands of ORE. Your going to kill the potential for a pure industrial reclaimer ships and electronic networking hacking ships. And by bare desciprtion alone you're going to wind up with some extremly heavy tank and attack setups in the end still due to the supposive number of slots to 'do it all' without refitting. And most of your ships seem overly aggressive in shape I mean if I didnt know better of what they where, they almost all look like pocket dreadnaughts. ============= Pre Order your Sisters of Eve ship today
