Edited by: ChromeStriker on 30/03/2011 11:57:38 you have all seen the new shiney turrets coming out (Turrets) and they make you go mmmmm nom nom nom! And of course alongside that, as is expected, come the "Where Are Launchers" grrr troll moan etc
Well something which has made made me realise why CCP havnt included them is theyre SiZe! as you can see from the turret vid the weapons are, understandably, scaled to the size of ship. eg large turrets are the right size for battleships small are right for frigates! welllllll this doesnt work for launchers! all due to one annomily... Stealth Bombers! if a torp launcher is scaled for battleships (all good and propper) how the hell are they going to fit 3 on a frigate? Especially the Hound! (theres nothing to it as it is!)
Iv kinda done some guesstimates and each launcher would need to be about the size of a hounds hull(not including the scaffholding) just to accomidate the length of a torp
At least thats the conclution iv come too... what do you think? any devs reading this?

NEVER QUESTION THE LOGIC BEHIND STEALTH BOMBERS FITTING TORPS. Many have tried. Most have never been heard from again.

Edited by: TorTorden on 30/03/2011 12:23:30 yea I remember back when this was possible and I stuck two mega beams on mye executioner, completely obscured the ship, luckily I couldn't undock since there was a limit for how much offline pwg consumption you could have on. Aparently I wasn't the first to do this.
As for bombers, well the fix could be well slightly pricy but why not. The ship models themselves need to change so that the ship is nothing more than 3 lauch tubes with an engine, or better yet, make a new type of missiles for the bombers. ------------------------------------------------ There is no such thing as good or evil.

Pfft. EVE doesn't suffer logical fallacies related to scale.
Now excuse me while I pack my Large Amarr Control Tower in my Viator.

Is that a Large Amarr Control Tower in your 'cargo hold' or are you just happy to see me?

Pfft. Have you not seen Transformers!
And by the way, just saw this vid for the first time today - and WOW. But it's kinda nerfed really when you think about, cus who zooms right into their ship when in battle? Novelty only.

The players will say "just rescale both ship and launchers/missles to fit.
CCP will say" Lets nerf bombers and put small rails on them" Everyone wil want to fly them.
Am I right CCP ? It is after all, part of your previous history on how you deal with content.

I never got the reason they killed the turrets in the first place, if I remember right pre-dominion didn't they have recoil animations for guns anyway? Were those bugged?

re: Large control tower in a hauler: Multi-dimensional space pockets
Whats wrong with you guys? Jeez...
WRT to the Stealth bomber: ya a new model over-haul may be necessary there.
They should look more like launchers with a cockpit squeezed between them ayways. Kinda like a pen between cleavage....
mmmmmm

Somone already went out and done figured out that turrets on battles are oversized as they are and to make them any bigger would be unweildly for cannons of its size. The problem withe eve is that the bigger your ship is the more they shift your zoom defaults making battleships feel no bigger than you shuttle. Which means despite your ship not really changing size from your prespective the guns on them get smaller and smaller. Pre-order your Sisters of ≡v≡ Exploration ship today, Updated 25FEB11
