I just watched a few titan videos, and am I the only one who finds it absurd to see the titans twitching as they get hit by missiles? It looks fine for battleship class ships and smaller, as it makes some sense for these ships to get moved a bit by the explosions. Capital class ships however, shouldn't be twitching around like I saw.
Just a nitpick :P

its especially disturbing that the twitching is so HUGE. Kinda disconcerting honestly.

If you speed up the action, the titans look as if they're dancing! \o/ \\o o// \o> <o/

Space has no gravity thus yes....capital ships MUST be rocked by missiles.

True, but even though without gravity there is no weight, there is still mass. A ship that has the mass of a titan should get almost no noticable impulse due to the change of momentum of a missile impact.

very true....can someone with a degree in astrophysics come and clear this up once and for all plz? -----------------------------------------------

Yes...there is no gravity, but that does not meant a missile hitting center mass on a titan should be causing it's ends to be bouncing up and down several hundred meters ever second.

Let's hope the bridge and your pod are in the center :P
I feel sorry for the crew at the ends, they die the instant a Titan goes into combat as they get mashed into red paste.

yes, please remove movement by missiles to any capital ship, it looks really lame tbh. ___________________________________________________ Looking for Chelm/Draclira mega beam lasers plus one pdu. Also looking for cruise launcher II BPO, isk available or trade for 2x Tachyon II BPOs |

They probably have inertia dampeners. :)

Mass has nothing to do with it WHEN THERE IS NO GRAVITY!!!!!
IT HAS NO WEIGHT.....ITS WEIGHLESS!!!!! SPACE VACUME!!!

It would rock a large spaceship just as much as a small one because they have no weight. Your brain are in "earth physics" mode.
Plz fix it

There is no gravity, or there is a minimal amount of it, which is why they SHOULDN'T rock at all.
Infact the movement should be precisely inverse to the explosion's location in direct proportion to the explosion's force.
A rocket should move a Titan, but not enough to be seen by anything bigger than a micrometer.

mass, the velocity and the mass of a single missle cant provide the energy needed to even move that much mass of a titan a few meters, and yes, even in space, you need energy to move things. otherwise titans could move as fast as frigates

Inertia is a function of mass my old fruit. An object with no weight still has mass.
Unless the bang is big enough to overcome the inertia of a bloody big object, it shouldn't move by much at all.

its eve science! :P if you have to compare it, compare it with star trek or star wars science
we dont have shipyards of massive capital ships on earth so do you try to relate it to a game :P
spaceships have shields to prevent such things, and the missiles should be hitting into its shields and not moving the ship as the shields protect the ship
earth has yet to develop a shield array like spaceships have to protect itself, so compare to star trek or star wars first :P

In space you could use the same rocket booster on a small friagte and a battleship. They would travel withthe exact same speed. Size doesnt matter in space.

shockwave!!!
And how do you propose to translate this shock into a wave? Once the initial particle dispersion reaches its zenith, there will cease to be any force enacted upon the vessel. And there will be no wave, because there is no medium through which that wave can be realized.
Granted if you bring subspace into the mix, that adds a whole new dimension, literally.

You are quite correct, size does not matter in space. only mass, inertia, and the causative force.

Sure it does. It matters where you apply the force, especially if you hit something on one end, you have to deal with circular motion then. Well, more accurately all sorts of vector stuff I don't want to think about right now.

Im not really bothered by the whole rocking thing. I have yet to see anything Eve that is remotely founded in realistic physics as a rule.
And since Eve Physics != Terrestrial Physics, they can do it how they want.
