I really think this is just going to be the V3 remodel for the Tempest... and I'm just fine with that! Elements of the past and the future combining to make something not quite as good as either. |

Nice to see the pic and confirmation. Tempting to train for if there weren't so many other ships to train for.
I would have liked to fly the Morpheus, sort of the middle child between Hyperion and Thanatos, I s'pose. IIRC the Bateleur did not start out as a BS design, and I've never seen an image of the Abolition.
The ships that might have been... |

Good to see it is being worked on.
I wonder how old that picture is.
Hopefully we will see the Tornado in the winter expansion. Taken last week ;)
Sweet!
So what does the version of the Tornado for the other races look like?
Do you have pictures for them also?
Oh, and who is the guy with the finger to his lips, and the guy working on the ship? |

Sorry darling, but those are (from left to right) CCP Hedgehog and CCP Duckface.
More to the point, be it a T3 hull (not likely, hoping to be very, very wrong here) or a "simple" Battleship - I can't wait to see it float in space!

Good they are working on it. From what I understood the Tornado would be a new minmatar battleship introduced (with a nice storyline by dropbear & co I hope) and later on the other empires would react by building their own versions of the Tornado.
This would give the art team time to "catch up" and it would be a realistic approach. Although I fly Amarr only I do believe its a pretty ship. I am also curious about the Mentor and if that is going to be made. In fact I wouldn't mind that some empires had an extra battleship while others have extra cruisers or battlecruisers. It would shake things up.
PS the Oblivion looks nice ... (HINT HINT) - [img]http://go-dl1.eve-files.com/media/corp/janus/ceosig.jpg[/img] [yellow]English only please. Zymurgist[/yellow] |

The competition was just to get the hull model into the game, not necessarily in the form that the designer intended, so there's no guarantee that the Tornado will be a battleship (let alone one with 7 midslots and a web bonus as was put on the original contest entry).
Hopefully they'll use it and the other new hull designs to fill gaps, rather than adding more ships for the sake of more ships. |

Honestly, these do look nice. I forsee them being stupid popular for fleet battles considering they get the EWAR bonuses to all of them, minus the caldari one. Looks like it could be the new drake though. Hopefully these require you to have multiple skill sets to certain levels to even fly the ship. I'd hate to see people flying them who dont even have the skill-set to even remotely fly this thing close to right.
Start maxing out your EWAR-powers. Fleet fights about to get rough. |

Tornado + True Sansha webber FTW

More relevantly, I remember pouring over the fine print and I for one never saw a promise to make the hull pilotable by players at all. Let's hope it doesn't go that direction, but that's a loophole everyone seems to have forgotten in the past year. |

One of the primary values of NeX is the efficiency with which it uses art assets - that would be completely annihalated by the building of an entire new hull, skins...etc for a one off.
I would guess it will be a Thukker Faction ship using the pirate faction mould (Caldari/Minmatar) and that it will probably be available in the same way as the customs offices (though hopefully not at 20 billion per print). |

Exactly this. It will be in wide availability, even if it's only through a faction loyalty store or something of the like. |

Am I the only person that doesn't think the Tornado looks good? If I wasn't already convinced that many people have bad taste, I'd say that you are all so desperate for a new ship that you guys will overlook it's terrible design because you are all just so excited to be getting anything at all. |

Oh and every single race needs a 4th BS/Frig/Cruiser, maybe work from biggest to littlest in terms of releasing them. GIVE CALDARI A GOOD SHIP FOR PVP!!!!! I think it would be really interesting to give in missles that follow ships into warp...plus a bunch of velocity bonuses, maybe give it a really high shield boost bouns so u dont need logi as much, rate of fire, kinetic damage, flight time. all are needed to actually make a missel BS actually affective. and the warp missels would nerf some problems missels have too...oh and use that cool runner up hull from the contest, aboslutely awsom. |

well. amarrifying the tornado shouldn't be that difficult. cut the wings, make it three times as heavy, twice as slow, build a brick wall of tungsten around it and give it 16 turrets with 50% reduced damage for the obligatory laser show ;) You fail you fail you fail you fail you fail you fail you fail to jump because you are cloaked |
