Hello,

My name is CCP TerrorShark and I have been working day and night alongside my super talented team to bring you a fully functional revised missile system. The new effects are visually so good that the developers here at CCP have been suffering eyesplosions! (eyes exploding at the epic nature of the explosions) So I hope you can all handle it because today we are bringing this to you, the faithful players of EVE.

This thread is devoted to all the feedback and issues you can muster in and around the smokey haze of detonated warheads. What we ask from you all is to use and view the missiles in every situation possible and take keen notes.

When you find something please try and be as specific as possible, the more information the faster we can get to the source of the issue. As you can imagine the possible combinations of ships, launchers and ammunition is vast so note them in your defect. Screen shots are also excellent and encouraged.

If you could all prefix the title of your submitted bug reports with ‘Missile:’ so it would read ‘Missile: Heavy Launchers on the Nighthawk changed my life for the better’ for example. Well maybe not but you get the idea and I will be able to filter them faster.

Above that have a great fight, keep your eyes peeled for the unexpected and get in the mood for some ‘splosions!!

I look forward to seeing how the missile launchers on the drake are positioned now.

It could use normal torps though.....WHICH I WILL USE AS AN ARGUMENT TO MAKE AN ENTIRE LINE OF T2 KHANID BATTLESHIPS.


Also, I think I'll be the first to ask to please nerf missiles so that existing missile boats like the raven could fit 8 of them and be win without being OP.

I'm hoping they're more powerful because im getting annoyed that i cant deal enough dps with my missile boats in PVP. They could just let you fit 8 without weakening them.

I think the missle launchers, explosions and realistic flight paths for missles will be a great improvement over the mysterious puff of smoke below my ship when I unleash the fury on my prey.

something else that would be rather neat *(yep i said neat), is IF the number of missle launcher spots were not dictated by the size of the ship, rather that the size of the launcher somehow adjusted the number of launchers a ship can handle. If there was some ratio that said for instance, if a Raven - can handle 8 Cruise, perhaps it could handle 15 heavy, if so desired to fit to your Raven. Or turn that around, a Drake could fit 3 or 4 perhaps 6 Cruise or Torps vs the 7 or 8 Heavies. Now that would be cool.

Looking forward to trying out rockets and new stealth bombers. Will update this post with feedback.

EDIT: SiSi is up it seems, updating...

EDIT #2:

Ok, so, feedback:

- Love the Vengeance design tweak (split tail), it also looks great with all the rocket launchers on it!
- Like the rocket firing animations, they seem to track and follow fast moving targets reasonably well.
- Torpedo launchers seem, well, not like torpedoes to be honest. This might be more due to the sounds than the effects.
- I did notice that the launchers switch depending on which side the target is on, very good. However they sometimes switch a little too late.
- The torpedo launchers only fire the top two missiles. If you're going to make more than just one fire, might as well make all of them fire, right?
- OOOOOOooooo... reloading animations!

EDIT #3:

- Bomb launcher is a little underwhelming, seems like there was more to it in the video devblog.
- New explosion effects are great, all in all missiles are more satisfying!
