Seeing any ship with a bunch of turrets that really dont look good on any of the races should go.
Rather have turrets designed in accordance with the design of the ship...NOT unique turrets for each weapon type..but turrets that work with the ship design. Lets face it most of the weapons for a particular size look more or less the same..might as well get rid of em and replace them with race specific turrets that are added /removed on the ship hull depending on the number of guns.
This way the animations and effects of the weapon do not change but the "look" of the turret is specific to each race/ship
For example: A Gallente ship will have turrets that are ergonomic and textured in the same manner as Gallente ships..they will Blend in with the hull and yet the firing effects and animation will be same.

I would -really- love to see something like this implemented :)
Though definitely not a priority, I don't imagine this would be a big problem to do, since turret models are fairly small :)
I completely agree though, it'd really bring the overall look and feel of ships to a whole new level to have guns to match it, rather than the same brown/grey ones no matter which ship you are on
*shrugs* Will certainly be interesting |

Experienced PvP players use the gun graphics to tell what armaments their opponent is using, to be able to adapt their tactics. Removing this from the game for the sake of eye candy seems like a bad idea.

So I take my Incursus to Caldari space, buy a few Light Electron Blasters, and magically they'll transform to look like Gallente guns?

ehh, you may consider looking up a few details, blasters are Gallente guns, no magic wand would be needed for that transformation...

it would be nice to be able to see the launcher hardpoints that would rock (also different size of guns to be shown in diferent sizes too) also that missiles go off from those hardpoints and missiles impact on the hull, not in the center of the ship

You mean backstory wise? If so, then, fine, I take my Incursus to a Minmatar station and buy a 250mm Arty and it magically has a Gallente design?
