Would someone know of a link to the images of the "dreadnoughts"?
BTW the meaning of dreadnought is (and I quote):
"A battleship armed with six or more guns having calibers of 12 inches or more."
I just hope that they can fit "more" than 8 guns (not mining lasers)

i think the 1200mm's are the 46 inch... 1400mm would be somewhere around 55 or 56 inches...

Who cares?
They are possibly coming SOONÖ 
That means around Xmas at the earliest. In reality BFS where talked about as a "ZOMG DONT CANCEL SUBS GUYS! LOOK TITANS THIS YEAR WE PROMISE!!111111" from CCP. They didnt even say they would be in this year FFS. When I started playing Titans where coming out with EXODUS, as where a whole bunch of other features that either died (Comet mining for one) or got half assed implementations (Player Owner Stations).
Don't believe CCP's promises until you see code running on the test server, even then there is a big chance the feature will get culled. --------------------------------------------------

A lightly armor/sheilded boat with heavy torp bonuses and covert ops cloaking would be cool.
Like subs in real life. Weak in head to head combat, but sneaky and leathal like a ninja when used right.

On EVE-Gate they have pictures of Titans, but under Caldari Titans they have two pictures of different, unknown ships. They could be Titans, Freighters or Dreadnoughts (no way to really tell).
Link to pictures - One, Two.
Of course, they could just be some really old pre-release pictures that aren't relevant anymore. The second picture looks alot like what I'd expect a Freighter to look like though, so the second could be a Titan/Dreadnought? ---------------- Haha, stupid monkey! Now I'VE got the Oscar!

Wrong conversion there
1400mm = 140cm 2.54cm = 1 in
140/2.54 = 55.118... in or basically 55 in
1200mm is 47 in

Necro, in the second pic its a bunch of merlins and some other kind of ship in towards the center background, they don't look too big compared to the merlins. The first ship image is of the caldari titan (supposedly the caldari ones were stated to be geared more offensively for close combat than some of the other titans but who knows now).

Edited by: Nero Scuro on 15/03/2005 09:46:30 Vaaliant, that ship in picture 2 is several times larger than a Merlin (hard to see due to the crappy perspective) but... still smaller than a BS. Plus it doesn't look very combaty (woot for made-up words!). That's why I thought it was a freighter.
And whatever that ship is in the first picture, it's gonna be kick-ass. Looks a lot better than the Gallente Titan anyway...
EDIT - And it's Nero! Why does everybody think my name is Necro!? ---------------- Haha, stupid monkey! Now I'VE got the Oscar! Enjoy your worthless gun! |

Edited by: Joshua Foiritain on 15/03/2005 10:48:11 The thing behind the Merlins is the Caldari Titan from behind. The white lights you see are its drives.
If you look closely to the first pic youll see Drives sticking out of the Big Drive and a Bridge thinhgie on it. You see them on the Titan behind the merlins as well only from the other side 
Personally id like to see some new Conecpt art on the Screenshot page, i'm sure theyve started on the dreads 
Edit: the First pic is the Caldari Titan btw, one of the best looking (Though smallest) titans ingame. ---------------------------

It makes me cry that they changed the amarr titan to the muschroom one. The one Khanid stole is so much sexier.

Ganja is someone who used to run Eve-Db.com. He had special dispensation form the devs to use the sofware and tear it apart, to access the items in it. Something like Eve-I has now.
He used to change the descriptions in the sortware, so if he logged in, different models were shown. that's why he's got all those leet screenshots.
I also remember him being ****y because someone told him off (a bughunter or something) for those screenshots, so I wouldn't be surprised if the link's removed soon :(

Edited by: Asestorian on 17/03/2005 12:55:14 Edited by: Asestorian on 17/03/2005 12:51:49 Its annoying that CCP have always had those models. Obviously its a lot harder to give them stats and stuff but just because they are all in the EVE files it makes me angry that I probably won't see even half of that stuff ingame for like another 3 years BUT THEY ARE RIGHT THERE ON MY HARD DRIVE 
Oh well, will just have to wait then.
EDIT: And thats pretty cool about the script, I always wondered about that. You think that gallente titan is actually a velator? 
EDIT 2: Also at least it does actually show to those who think that CCP are just making it up as they go along, that they have always had the main idea of what was going into the game. ----------------

Consensual wars are in next patch. Comet mining is far too hard to implement for such a small gain. Dust mining = why? What would you get that would be different from normal mining? Lag? Corp taxes... well, 'k, sure... *mumble* ---------------- Haha, stupid monkey! Now I'VE got the Oscar! Enjoy your worthless gun! |

Corp taxes are dumb anyway.
Why would a corporation tax its members? The members already put in their work for the corporation. They make less than what they would working on their own.

WTF kinda fuzzy math is this? An inch is 25.4mm, so 1400mm/25.4mm ~= 55.1 inches.
BTW, my understanding of th dreadnaught class as it applies to eve is they will have a comparable number of slots to battleships, but will allow the fitting of extra large guns.

Well, different materials obviously but more to the point, because they were promised so either deliver them, give us an ETA for delivery or actually say "ok, this isn't going to work", don't just ignore them and hope they get quietly forgotten.

Because the corps in Eve aren't real corporations. They're closer to medieval guilds, they get a slice of your take in return for mutual protection and exchange. _____________________________________________ The most pessimistic sod in Eve, and proud of it
