Flardowell The Scope Gallente Federation 24	Posted - 2013.02.10 16:35:00 - [1] - Quote If supercarriers are so "Super" and are unable to dock, why are most dreadnaughts bigger than they are? Cmon CCP, make em just a bit bigger :(
Surfin's PlunderBunny Sebiestor Tribe Minmatar Republic 7664	Posted - 2013.02.10 16:38:00 - [2] - Quote It's because the wheelbarrow they have to use to lug around their massive balls won't fit through the door "Little ginger moron" ~David Hasselhoff-á
James Amril-Kesh 4S Corporation RAZOR Alliance 3817	Posted - 2013.02.10 16:40:00 - [3] - Quote Supercarrier models could stand to be bigger. There's not really any tangible benefit to doing so besides making them prettier, and it might be detrimental as far keeping several in a POS. Malcanis for CSM 8 Phrases like "you can't nerf / buff X EVE is a Sandbox" have the same amount of meaning as "If this is a sack of potatoes then you can not carrot." - Alara IonStorm

Keno Skir Vectis Covert Solutions 369	Posted - 2013.02.10 16:43:00 - [5] - Quote I agree. Rules in a game like "Can Dock and Can't Dock" that are said to be based on size should reflect this when you look at them. Otherwise where's the imersion? I would also be asking the same thing sitting off station in my supercarrier watching dreds bigger than me dock. If you have any further thoughts on something i've posted, or want to ask an unrelated question feel free to contact me by EvE Mail or by private conversation if 'm online.

Sala Kyss Dreddit Test Alliance Please Ignore 40	Posted - 2013.02.10 16:56:00 - [6] - Quote I agree, make my space coffin look like its actually a coffin and not a crumb compared to most capitals
Destoya Sniggerdly Pandemic Legion 62	Posted - 2013.02.10 17:09:00 - [7] - Quote Larger ships require more work to adjust texture sizes; I'd rather the art team spend their time on other assets first. They're honestly fine now and I'm not terribly excited about the prospect of bumping even more than we do already at jump-in
Abrazzar 720	Posted - 2013.02.10 17:21:00 - [8] - Quote So, make the dreadnaught smaller and the super carrier bigger. Please visit your user settings to re-enable images.
Asuka Solo Stark Fujikawa Stark Enterprises 2281	Posted - 2013.02.10 17:37:00 - [9] - Quote +1 for Bigger SCs Eve is about Capital ships, WiS, Boobs, PI and Isk!
Certo Morte Dreddit Test Alliance Please Ignore 2	Posted - 2013.02.10 18:59:00 - [10] - Quote My wyvern should be bigger than a regular carrier... protip: it isn't
The Renner Canadian Operations Yulai Federation 14	Posted - 2013.02.10 19:15:00 - [11] - Quote All Capital models except dreads are too small imo. 2 battleships being ejected out of a regular carrier that is nearly the same size as the battleships themselves is rather silly. Even titans don't really look like they could comfortably fit 10 bs inside it's hull tbh.

iskflakes 316	Posted - 2013.02.10 20:17:00 - [13] - Quote Titan sizes should be reduced by 50%, and maybe dreads decreased by 20% -
Tarn Kugisa Infinite Covenant Tribal Band 384	Posted - 2013.02.10 20:37:00 - [14] - Quote reduce all subcap ship sizes by 25% I Endorse this Product and/or Service EVE Online Battle Recorder When I press F1 I get ISK

Otherwise where's the imersion? Stations can hold bazillions of M3 (Jita etc) but can't hold a single super cap of the size of a dreadnaught.

Unsuccessful At Everything The Troll Bridge 2023	Posted - 2013.02.11 01:20:00 - [18] - Quote Posting in a not-so-stealth 'why cant my super dock?!??!' thread. *Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?*

Cmon CCP, make em just a bit bigger :( Yes lets the make giant space penises that already have fragile collision boxes with the potential to bounce 100's of km even bigger and more likely to bounce so scrubs who will never fly or even see one in person can Ooh and ahh over it.
Rico Minali The Straw Men Dark Therapy 1208	Posted - 2013.02.11 10:24:00 - [21] - Quote Capitals ship models need to be made MUCH larger, at the moment they are truly crap. Carriers need to be made MUCH larger never mind supers. Trust me, I almost know what I'm doing.
Turelus Caldari Independent Navy Reserve The Fourth District 257	Posted - 2013.02.11 10:28:00 - [22] - Quote While I would love to see capitals resized to make sense (seriously, how can I fit two battleships in that Chimera!?) I have to agree with all of those that have posted about the bad collision boxes, if you have ever seen how much of a PITA it is to not have someone push a Titan out of a POS you will understand why capital pilots don't want to have bigger ships to try and fit inside those shields. "Don't count on others for help. In the end each of us is in this alone. The survivors are those who know how to look out for themselves."
Bobby Hatless TEAMSTERS 7	Posted - 2013.02.11 11:09:00 - [23] - Quote I'd like to see some of the larger things in eve, actually large. Stations should be massive. Any ship that has a SMA should look like it could actually hold other ships. Plank containers my butt. For me, it breaks the immersion - feels like SCs should be as big as Titans are now, and titans 3 times as big. Yes I'm a SC pilot, no I don't want to bump any more on jump-in - but they could fix that some other way. A broken mechanic shouldn't be a reason to do nothing. If fitting large ships inside a POS is hard, make the POS bubbles bigger. If that means weapons tweaks to hit the tower - great more weapons and variety. Given the ram on graphics cards these days, are larger textures really a problem? Wouldn't mind betting the textures in the art-depts asset library are already 20x bigger than the finals used in game - I doubt it would even be a stretch to generate bigger ones... We're going v3 anyway right? Of course its a lot of effort still, but I'd support it.

They don't have to increase the collision boxes along with the models tho.
handige harrie Hedion University Amarr Empire 39	Posted - 2013.02.11 22:17:00 - [25] - Quote I would love it when capitals were to get much bigger, not to mention Supercaps. Seeing how CCP stated in the Summer 2012 CSM meeting minutes (page 64) that they wanted to get rid of the Force field bubble in a POS rework, Titans and Super carriers should be huge, much bigger than they are now. They would have to find a solution to Cyno Jump in Bumping though. Baddest poster ever
YuuKnow Boom-Town 638	Posted - 2013.02.11 22:43:00 - [26] - Quote The whole concept of supercarriers is a permanent Fail on the part of CCP. They should have been entirely deleted a long time ago. yk
Krell Kroenen Miner Intimidation 121	Posted - 2013.02.11 22:56:00 - [27] - Quote I have to confess I wish the scale of the ships were more believable. A bit of tweaking here and there making some smaller and others larger should be a good compromise.
Liang Nuren Heretic Army Atrocitas 2967	Posted - 2013.02.11 23:11:00 - [28] - Quote I can't help but wonder what an Eve would look like if all the model sizes were correct. I can't help but think the game would feel like the intro to X3:TC when you're like "fuuuuuuuck, Jupiter is huuuuuuge". -Liang Normally on 5:00 -> 9-10:00 Eve (Aus TZ?)

Abrazzar 728	Posted - 2013.02.11 23:25:00 - [29] - Quote Played around with the ship chart I had and enlarged the carrier and supercarrier. From the looks, the dreadnought will not need increasing then. Only did it to the Amarr, good enough to show the change in proportion. Capsized Please visit your user settings to re-enable images.
