Edited by: Greenbolt on 20/06/2008 17:08:36 In the new Trailer I just watched..I could swear it shows an Abaddon taking out a Titan multiple carriers and a few battleships in one shot.
What was he using and can I cross train to use it?

I have a sneaking suspicion that we'll need to read the book to find out.
When I do, I'll let you know (too poor to buy it at the moment).  ---------------- Play EVE: Downtime Madness v0.81 (Updated 4/8) |

Am I the only one who didn't like the trailer? I LOVED every trailer up till now, but this latest one...It was a point of pride for me to say 'CCP doesn't need to rely on animators to make their trailers, everything is in game! Take that Blizzard!'
And that gun that the Abaddon fired...that's gotta be the stupidest looking weapon i've ever seen! Any of the doomsdays look cooler then that thing. If the Abaddon fired off the Avatar's dd...THAT would have been cool.

No you are not alone on this , no disrespect for the artists ,it looks really good and professional ,but it dosent feels right at all , and that ridiculous weapon , looked really cheap when he took the whole fleet in one shot . it lacks the epic feeling of the previous trailers .

no that's the 30 lives code from Contra ~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~ Take away the risk and it would make flying around in space utterly pointless.
Take away the flying around part and you make EVE into a space themed spreadsheet application. |

Originally by: Istvaan Shogaatsu It was a strange matter generator.
Quote: If the strange matter hypothesis is correct, and a strangelet comes in contact with a lump of ordinary matter such as Earth, it could convert the ordinary matter to strange matter. This "ice-nine" disaster scenario is as follows: one strangelet hits a nucleus, catalyzing its immediate conversion to strange matter. This liberates energy, producing a larger, more stable strangelet, which in turn hits another nucleus, catalyzing its conversion to strange matter. In the end, all the nuclei of all the atoms of Earth are converted, and Earth is reduced to a hot, large lump of strange matter.
This is not a concern for strangelets in cosmic rays, because they are produced far from Earth and have had time to decay to their ground state, which is predicted by most (though not all) models to be positively charged, so they are electrostatically repelled by nuclei, and would rarely merge with them . But high-energy collisions could produce negatively charged strangelet states which live long enough to interact with the nuclei of ordinary matter.

Well, if you could somehow direct a bunch of strangelet particles using a magnetic field, it would certainly be possible to create a weapon that looked and behaved much like what we saw. Hrm. ---------------- Play EVE: Downtime Madness v0.81 (Updated 4/8) |

Yeah, the way it appeared in the video is what made me think 'strangelets' - first, the Abaddon projects a contained ball of energy, safely away from its own hull, then fires it into the biggest source of mass, causing it to spread to nearby masses. Exotic particle weapons rule :|

This would also fit together with the 'Armageddon Project' Chronicle, that states that the Jovians (might) have developed a weapon that is capable of destroying whole planets. -------- Ideas for: Mining

Seriously though the trailer isnt what's important, its the game itself and tbh i think CCP have done a good job on the expansion. This new trailer had a very Homeworld 2 feel about it, though personaly i do prefer the trailers showing real gameplay.

I'm guesing it will be future gameplay. Just a trailer for EA but also a teaser for future devolpment.

It'll probably be a one off thing and if in game at all used by a storyline character. It wont be usable by players (I hope). One thing i love in EVE is that there isn't one weapon that is the only viable thing to train towards that out modes every other thing around. Everything has its roles and use within the game depending on your ship and fittings.

You realize all of the trailers related to this expansion where faked right?
Parts of them were faked for obvoius reasons but to the most part they were real.

The last 2 Teasers for the FW expansion were roleplay movies to kick off the conflicts a bit more visual. All prevous expansion trailers were ingame footage or future content. To keep this line, ccp has to improve planets, explosions and to implement the blue ball thingie.
Its a good movie, but i dont believe that we will get this weapon which makes the movie some kind of crap. Its losing the flair of the other trailers.
Take the No Other Destiny trailer. What if the shown Titan wasnt ingame? The trailer would be a waste of bandwidth.

Think about this for a minute. CCP has stated they aren't happy with sov mechanisms, and with introduction of capturable low-sec space we might well see something similar implemented for 0.0 on a larger scale.
What would happen? You would get blobs trying to knock over fixed installations. The center of any major fleet blob is the capital group. One way to encourage breaking groups into smaller fleets for objectives would be to create a battleship-deployable anti-cap weapon with DD like properties. Keeping all your caps in one place would become too much of a liability and force blocs to split into smaller groups.
