Not just the turrets need to be enhanced. Even the missile system looks like an epic fail to me. Best example is the drake. Why does this ship have so many missile bays on both sides for when they're not used? It looks so damn silly when a missile is coming right out of nowhere in the middle of the ships belly. Not to mention that this is a "!BATTLE!" Cruiser. In comparison to what the name stands for and what is going on on the screen, when fighting, the drake should be called "Pong Cruiser"
Cause when fighting it looks like the drake is the bar and the missiles are the dot...just silly. That example matches with every other missile based ship in eve. the bigger the ship gets, the sillier it looks.

1. I would like to see an enhancement to the gun and projectile effects, as currently the effect really doesnt feel powerful at all, we're dealing with things up to 1400mm and yet the effect looks much less satisfying as it stands.
The problem is the size of the turrets. They are everywhere the same. On any ship. Looks silly too. On a frig the number of turrets are realistic but they are totally oversized. on a battleship where there should be hundreds of turrets if we stick to what the name it's standing for. it's almost the same. they are also totally unrealistic oversized (Rokh f.e.) and they are far too few. EPIC Fail in my opinion.
I don't speak of changing the stats. keep'em as they are. just match the size and amount of turrets according to the class of ship and as the author of this thread said: the effects. possible way to get this done: implement a turret/missile-battery system on bigger ships. for when you activate one of your turret/missile-buttons a hole battery of beams, projectiles or missiles is firing. matching the size of the effects according to the ships class would have the nice side effect that finally f.e. a battleship would'nt just look like a battleship, it would fight like a battleship and the player could finally feel like a captain of a battleship.
Please CCP, there is no need in rushing things like walking on stations and dust 514 if there are still bigger issues to solve in EVE as they are right now. eyecandy for the players is necessary too to keep them sticked to the game. if the graphical difference between WOS and the rest of the game (with all the unsolved issues I mentioned above) will be getting the big like we've seen it on the trailers then this won't be good at all. I'm hoping for the best.
By the way: Topic absolutely supported!
