Hao Wu	Posted - 2009.12.20 22:31:00 - [1] I noticed recently that catalyst has a "radio antenna"-like wingybit that sweeps above the ****pit. It really adds alot to the character of a ship I think, which are otherwise appear static and inanimate (other than the blinking lights, meh). Who wouldn't want to see ships with animated opening of their drone bay say, or turrets/launchers that show a "coming online" animation? So, are there other ships with similar "cool touches" of animation? HW -=Cogito Ergo Sum=-
Terianna Eri Amarr Senex Legio Get Off My Lawn	Posted - 2009.12.20 22:35:00 - [2] a couple of the t2 minnie ships used to have spinnie bits but they got nerfed only other ones i can think of now that have moving parts on the model are the mining barges ________________ Originally by: CCP Incognito PS the "time to P*nis" is the shortest time recorded in human history. :)
yani dumyat Minmatar Pixie Cats	Posted - 2009.12.20 22:47:00 - [3] I quite like the zephyr animation on the sails, also the sphere that the game engine recognizes as a ship seems to have been moved so the center of the sphere is near the front of the ship, it's subtle but looks very graceful when turning. _________________________________________________ Lifeboat ----> + Human
Hao Wu	Posted - 2009.12.20 22:49:00 - [4] yeah the mining barges look great with the animations. little touches but they really help you in imagining that you are flying a 400m long factory running full steam deep in space :) -=Cogito Ergo Sum=-
Vaneshi SnowCrash	Posted - 2009.12.20 23:12:00 - [5] Catalyst. Barges. Rorqual (if the deploy animation counts). About it really for player ships. The drone Dominix has a LOT of animation on it (antennas, the little legs and the ramora attached to the face). If I remember, the original sketches for the Tristan had its wings folding down in "battle mode". But never made it in to the game. Always surprised me that CCP didn't put in more twidly bits with Trinity as you're right the little radomes and such give the ships a bit of character.
Gun Hog Caldari Ardent Industrial Arcane Alliance	Posted - 2009.12.21 00:14:00 - [6] The Hawk has spinny engine thingies, and is one of my favorite ships in terms of looks. _______________________________________________
Schayol Sunkeeper Imperial Crusade Syndicate	Posted - 2009.12.21 00:31:00 - [7] dreadnaughts have animations for siege mode ( turrets extending etc )
Azirapheal Amarr 24th Imperial Crusade	Posted - 2009.12.21 00:32:00 - [8] the amarr shuttle used to be doing something very suspicious with its back end.... Originally by: Azirapheal i never ever thought id live to see the day.... that titans were nerfed for being FOTM HAHAHAHAHAAAAAAA Originally by: CCP Zymurgist SoonÖ
Kaylee Juuna	Posted - 2009.12.21 01:15:00 - [9] Edited by: Kaylee Juuna on 21/12/2009 01:16:21 More animations on ship = much more engaging. Instead of, "Oh, I'm flying a plastic model of a ship in space. I'm playing a video game. I'm sitting in front of a computer, wasting my life", it could be something like... "I'm am grate pilat of the vacuum, surrenduring to me nao or face explosion of space pixels."

Mikael Mechka	Posted - 2009.12.21 02:15:00 - [12] The eris replaces the radar dish of the catalyst with a light it moves back and forth, the cormorant has 4 lights under it that move back and forth too as if they should be scanning the hull of a large ship or the surface of a planet. ------------------------------------------------- Originally by: Lana Torrin I just reported you for being informative in a troll thread. Please leave.
Diomidis Amarr Mythos Corp RAZOR Alliance	Posted - 2009.12.21 02:19:00 - [13] There is no need for the server to sync animation data, unless we are talking about tracking turrets etc, that actually track you ship and your client is notified about their aiming direction all the time etc... The animation sequence and all the GFX/Textures etc are stored and computed locally by your PC-client, so no lag should be involved, as the animation is repeated in exact intervals and it's not linked to your ships orientation or actual speed etc... Sounds on the other hand, like turrets firing etc, are synced globally, and to an extend is logical to expect higher server loads when a lot of ppl on the same grid "demand" sound fx syncronized to the actual fight. Just like drones would affect it for the same reason...not because of their locally stored textures, but because those are so many in busy fleet fights and fly so inconsistently and so fast...each drone is line an extra ship with a single turret on it...

Harleen QuinzeI	Posted - 2009.12.21 02:38:00 - [14] More animation would be awesome. Sure in reality a spaceship ain't designed for the looks, but what says a game can't be entertaining a bit? x)
Don Pellegrino Helljumpers Aeternus.	Posted - 2009.12.21 06:35:00 - [15] The Arazu has disco lights.
Seralder	Posted - 2009.12.21 07:37:00 - [16] Space Police: Gallente Navy Comet
Georn VIRTUAL LIFE VANGUARD Black Star Alliance	Posted - 2009.12.21 07:44:00 - [17] Leviathan - has some kind of shuttle flying back and forth Catalyst - rotating radar dish Eris - rotating search light Zephyr - sails and ropes and stuff Mining Barges/Exumers - several animations Hawk - rotating thingies below the wings Prowler - animated Energy field in the mids Dreads - extending turrets in siege mode Fighters - hectic flying, rolling and navigation jets .. not sure if this counts .. those are all that I know of turrets used to have a nice firing animation, where the barrels would be pushed back by recoil.. has been missing since Apocrypha though :) (I smile because I tend to bugreport it every now and then :D ) ____________ nerf metagaming, boost fun
KustoMKilleR Axe Gang	Posted - 2009.12.21 08:19:00 - [18] the nag has solar panels up top that rotate Shununununun....... --------------
Dursun Idris	Posted - 2009.12.21 08:28:00 - [19] Originally by: Kaylee Juuna Edited by: Kaylee Juuna on 21/12/2009 02:21:02 Originally by: Shatner19 Originally by: Kaylee Juuna Edited by: Kaylee Juuna on 21/12/2009 01:35:47 More animations on ships make the game more laggy. fixed. Things with that low of a polygon count wouldn't affect the game at all. Unless you're running on a Pentium II and a Voodoo 3, maybe. 1 ship in grid with animations, cool. 5 ships, cooler. 50 ships, no problem. 200 ships, wont effect much. 500+ ships in grid with lots of tiny bits moving constantly... that may cause some problems i think. Unless closing effects stops animations also.
Dr Fighter	Posted - 2009.12.21 10:41:00 - [20] the EOS used to have a chin mounted scanning radar dish, heck it could be still there but since the EOS sucks such a large quantity of donkey genitalia and no ones flys it - i have no recent evidence!
fuxinos Caldari Guys 0f Sarcasm	Posted - 2009.12.21 11:26:00 - [21] Originally by: Kaylee Juuna Edited by: Kaylee Juuna on 21/12/2009 02:21:02 Originally by: Shatner19 Originally by: Kaylee Juuna Edited by: Kaylee Juuna on 21/12/2009 01:35:47 More animations on ships make the game more laggy. fixed. Things with that low of a polygon count wouldn't affect the game at all. Unless you're running on a Pentium II and a Voodoo 3, maybe. Graphics have nothing to do with lag, you may get low fps under some very unrealistic situations, but not lag... Graphics are renderd by your graphiccard and not by servers.
Davina Braben	Posted - 2009.12.21 11:49:00 - [22] The zephyr has a spinny bit on the back.
Guillame Herschel Gallente NME1	Posted - 2009.12.21 22:45:00 - [23] Originally by: Azirapheal the amarr shuttle used to be doing something very suspicious with its back end.... The Crucifier/Sentinel/former-Anathema hull used to have thrusting bits in its undercarriage, too. *-- He said "The President is near."*
Aerin Cloudfayr the evil ones	Posted - 2009.12.22 14:27:00 - [24] I wanna see the Augoror/Guardian swing the armour plates forward when using cap/rr modules. Just sayin.
K'uata Sayus	Posted - 2009.12.22 15:35:00 - [25] The Catalyst was designed as homage to the venerable WWII B-17, and the rotating Radar is probably homage to the first ever radar used by the Brits in the Battle of Britain. The rest of the Gallente line is homage to the byproducts of the meat processing industry and sex-toy industry. EVERYONE SEEMS NORMAL UNTIL YOU GET TO KNOW THEM.

Xtover Suicide Kings	Posted - 2009.12.22 16:30:00 - [27] Most T2 ships used to have animations of some sort until Trinity, since then though almost all were removed.

The rest of the Gallente line is homage to the byproducts of the meat processing industry and sex-toy industry. More like sea animals. Proteus looks like a hammerhead shark (IN SPACE!), Myrm looks like a seahorse, Taranis looks like a piranha, Domi a .. blowfish?

Baneken Gallente	Posted - 2009.12.22 17:40:00 - [30] Tristans 'wings' fold a bit when it gathers speed or is in warp.
