Quote: The design for battlecruisers was for them to be the needed mini-battleships, hard as hell and can deal above average cruiser damage, they are for offensive actions but not ôtarget me and kill me in 5 secs or you will die in these 5ö, but more like ôif you want me to stop dealing this good damage on you, you would have to focus 100% on killing me you big mean battleship pilot, cuz im almost as big as youö.
How hi was the person who wrote this 
i can just see TomB sitting down and putting forward 'this' proposal to the rest of the devs.

Pimp Wagons will not be released with Shiva.
They are having trouble coding the fuzzy dice, bling bling thruster cowlings and oversized subwoofer boxes.

Jesus, we aren't allowed to have any fun are we? Well, I skipped a solid Battlecruiser description to get the new screenshots out. It pretty much describes how they are going to be, better than the previous description too 
But sure, I'll go straight to do a dull marketing-babble-politically-correct description and strip out any humour whatsoever. _____________________________ I say hey sky, s'other say I won say, I pray to J I get the same ol' same ol. |

my favourite last jock from Shiva info , it was so damn funny imho 
Like the old Minmatar saying "A faction without a military Complex is like a fish without a Tempest. A fish needs water but both need massive firepower in space to stay alive". What it really means, nobody knows, but a military Complex only means one thing...
  
you must love monty phyton guys:)

its a improvement over battlecruisers have bs armour but cruiser guns.
when it was bs guns but cruiser armour to give better speed.
that wound me up no end, i even considered posting some insults about devs not looking into things and how they failed history.

Yeah, why do the Minmatar ships have so many solar panels? And why are they all stacked up, making them basically useless since they'll get the way of each other the way they are. Heat Sink is a much better description for them. Surely the giant space hamsters aren't putting out that much thermal radiation from their wheels.
And when will we get the official requirements for Battlecruisers and Destroyers? or are the ones on EveDB correct?

Historically, both ideas have been used in naval fleets.
Though I must admit battleship armour and cruiser guns would be pointless, since by swapping slots you can do that by putting medium guns in the battleship.
A few battleship guns on a more fragile hull, however, is a much more useful combination and far more inline with the opposite small gun role of the destroyer.
Just a shame that the description originally posted in the Shiva pages indicated the battlecruiser was both - highly confusing!

I think people were just a little surprised Oveur, most devs will go the marketing and politically correct route rather than a description that doesn't sound like it was written by a stock broker.
Either way yay for Oveur! =P
