Oh yeah, my thanny in my lvl 4 missions. Idiot. Jesus christ, cant anyone be a cearbear. Every other missile system got an extreme dps version of itself except for missiles. thats the point.

should have realised that it would have been nerfed. There isn't a missile boat with a full rack of eight launchers, the drake has 7 (should have been 8), the Raven has 6, CNR 7.
Yes I know about the State Issue Raven has 8 launchers but there are only four of them in existence! So really doesn't count.
I suppose a ship with 8 missile launchers would be just too over powered...
Telling ppl to just train Hybrids is a cop out, it's like telling Gallente pilots to to give up on blasters and train Amarr instead. It's not the point!
Oh well never mine, it's not the end of the world.... |

It's got NOTHING to do with level 4 missions or "carebears'. The Naga would be totally hopeless at level 4s anyway!

It isnt a cop out, hybrids are a gallente and caldari weapon system. Just like minmatar use projectiles AND missiles.

Drones didn't.
Caldari have always been missiles AND hybrids, and that's all there is to it. Don't like it? Too bad, you'll probably have to wait for the next new ship. |

Hybrids are a perfectly valid Caldari system, as several ships are dedicated hybrid platforms.
Do not whine because you cannot be bothered to queue up a few skills. I have trained for every single racial ship and weapons systems in the game, and some people are afraid to go beyond PVEfest missiles?
I can't say that I did not like the choice between hybrids and missiles on the Naga.
Ideally CCP could just add two torpedo bonuses (so it would have x2 hybrid bonuses and x2 torpedo bonuses, as many many people suggested) and provide the Naga with 8 missile launcher hardpoints, allowing to have a secondary option to blasters in close range combat. Everyone is happy and satisfied. |

Also, they havent implemented visual missile launcher models yet, so why they would release a ship model now that they would then have to re-do later?
also also, you already got drakes, you dont need another missile BC |

It is annoying that all high-gank T1 ships use g++ns, though. Destroyers all use guns, and now these glass cannon BCs are also g++n-based. Why can't EVE have just one missile-based glass cannon?

Missiles do not mesh well with the premise of glass cannon because of travel time. About the only time they'd be close to gun based glass cannons is when sitting at 0 on the target, and even then the missiles do a loop between firing and impacting the target, taking about half a second for the damage to register. Guns by contrast register damage instantly upon firing. And when flying a glass cannon that half second can often mean the difference between life and death. |

On the contrary, if CCP would let me fly a missile-based glass cannon, I'd have my 2nd volley well on the way before the target even notices the missiles I'm firing at him! Or if using Cruise Missiles with a range bonus, it'd probably be the 3rd or even 4th volley...
Also, do you see my point about first Destroyers and now these new Battlecruisers? CCP won't create any high-gank/no-tank missile-based ships.

This all seems like watching some kid try to build new toys with the assistance of duct tape. Really, the ideas were cool on paper, but they're sucking in the reality department.
the bonuses on a ship generally tell you their purpose. i popped a catalyst from 200km on test server, learn to fit. im more impressed that he sat there and let you do that. sounds like a good sport, or someone AFK. the role of these ships is extreme damage projection in PvP. CCP may have noticed a large alliance or two starting to use disposable, extreme DPS hurricanes against supercaps and suicide ganking in highsec, and figured why not build a ship specifically for the role, as none really existed.
only took two salvos, the align time alone might be long enough (depending on fit, etc) for even an active player to get popped MM Bombers, Best Bombers |

I think I detect your sarcasm, but what if you could sacrifice a rig slot to change your turret / bay configurations and / or your ship bonuses for different weapon systems?

Works well for minmatar 1400's and perhaps amarr tachyons for sniping. Hybrids alpha will be less, putting caldari / gallente less into the suicide sniper role.
The Tornado is currently impossible to fit, and even if you do use the 3 fitting mods it wants you have no way to use the range they provide, the Oracle is nice, but thats to be expected, but in a shocking turn of events, the Naga is actually the highest sustained DPS, doing 600 dps at 190km, with the new 5 second reload time making it THE best sniper (it can also nearly hit 2km/s with gang bonuses).
Basically all these people are retards.
If the guy really wanted a 1000dps boat to augment his carrier the Naga still works just fine for that, in fact its easier to fit the rack of neutron blasters and a normal drake sized tank on it for his thanny to rep than it would be to get a stable tank and the torp launchers.

What would actually happen is that you'd fire your first 2 vollyes, and the player, would notice these pretty lights crossing this vast distance, and in his overview, would be a red boxed ship.
He'd then warp out while your missiles were still in the air, since you can't point him from that extreme range.
Also a Torp Raven is a very high dps gank boat when set up right, I'm not really sure what you're looking for though, as the entire idea of your prey sitting there long enough for your missiles to land is laughable.
