It's a bit worrying about the lack of response and the dismissiveness of the earlier dev reply. The model is so bad that people were speculating that it was a dev troll over at FH.
It's eerily similar to the "we don't believe you" responses we all got while telling them the Uni Inv was a busted up piece of junk while it was still on SiSi... It's really not at all. We've never had this early level of public testing before, and it's important to focus on the features that we ask for feedback on, not the ones we explicitly don't. I wasn't being dismissive in the slightest, just trying to keep people focused on what was the subject of the tests - ship balancing.
Your ad department thinks its fit to print Same with Facebook WIP images. It's not just testers searching the data. You have put this hull in full view of everyone for a early level of public scrutiny. Someone in there is expecting us to look at it.

As the Art Director I just wanted to you give you a quick heads up on what thoughts went into designing the new destroyers. All of them are heavily influenced by historical military machinery and of course the ships functionality plays a big role in the design process as well.
I love the rear of the Minmatar destroyer. I can see the tank influence, but I see the US Civil War Ironclads.
Its the whole transition to wingy bits for me though that makes it fall apart. The difference between the destroyer and the other unorthodox military vehicles you posted is the fact the real world ones flowed into themselves like it was meant for the craft.
For me, going from spindly satellite panels on skinny toothpick rails into a brick just doesn't flow. Others seem to have a problem with the block "turret" bridge. So we all don't feel the same way about the ship as a whole, but its obvious the most discontent comes from the flow of different styles on a single ship. |

Not really inducive to the cause.
What part is disliked and why? "the whole thing" does not really tweak the hull that we are obviously going to use. Yet there is a slim slim slim chance it could still be tweaked. |

Kind of stupid actually, and the Engineer should probably.. scratch that, was probably shot, (for wasting money; either that, or he ended up in the Tower of London). I realize the design has a purpose, but I doubt he really thought that one through, and it probably doesn't work very well. Guessing it was designed to deflect rocket propelled grenades of the front of the craft without detonating them. If they hit just right, it would probably work.
Your military knowledge is horribly lacking.
The Super Hind is retrofitted by a South African arms company, ATE-Aerospace. The original Hind is by Mil Moscow Helicopter Plant. England has nothing to do with it. The Gunner uses the nose-mounted sensor pod and a head tracking helmet to direct the 20mm dual-feed cannon.
1100kgs lighter than any Mi-24/35. its climbs faster, is more agile has greater range and can carry an even wider rander of weapons than even the latest Russian made Mi-35s. The original Russian frame had a lot more problems, and lacked night vision. This is also a hugely less expensive option than other modern attack helicopters. |

edit2: Although, on 2nd look, that original is just a poor 3D model representation.
edit3: That 2nd link doesn't go anywhere. Perhaps it was fake?
A. Those 3d models are just mockups of the planed craft. And was likely just one of the first google hits the dev got when posting samples...
B. The 2ed link had a period (.) At the end of the url. Not a hard fix.

How dare you quote a HIND has ugly! Its beautiful, iconic and AWESOME!
Although I see it as gallente.
Minmatar is more like the MIL-28 Havoc.
Ka-50 Hokum. More wingy bits. |

Well, they are trying.

So it is in flux and still WIP. Though I knew we were going to get the same general shape. They are trying to make a fast brick. Something you can proudly hurtle though your enemies front windshield. |

I don't see why It needs so many panels compared to its main body. New stabber, one panel. Vaga has a ton yet they all are different sizes and flowing, A fanned cobra hood ready to strike. Normal Tempest, two large paneled areas. The new Vargur with the brilliant boundless creation solar arch style is awesome. The new(ish) Hound, which I now realize didn't maintain the solar arch the corp is best known for, yet the main focus the panels: tiny and subdued. Its just so different...
WAit, what the... I just noticed the massive hole under it. Like it needs a bomb module. That is a deep hole for how thick the model is.
*throws hands up*
Ok, I'm just going to zoom out now. Its fixed for me. |
