Acckkk... those torps would do my head in just imagine if you had epilipsy shooting a pos for hours would drive me mad watching them explode.
Perhaps a slight amount more of that explosion at most only if they make the alpha damage something to write home about otherwise its just a bit OTT.

T3's need to be versatile so no rigs are necessary ... they should not have OP dps and tank

ABC's should be T2, remove drone assist, separate HAM's and Torps range, -3 HS for droneboats

The new cruise missile effects tho look cool so keep those. But the torps seriously. Rainbow explosions. Is what it was about Evil


Oh god no. In fleets they were horribly ugly and seizure-inducing. They also didn't look nearly as good.

Mjolnir made pretty blue explosions, Nova made pretty darkish yellow explosions, Inferno made nice red explosions, Scourge made nice green explosions.

I always thought the old torp shockwaves would be better suited for bombs.

It's before my time. But I ';ve been told that torps used to be AoE weapons. Even after they were nerfed to be point damage weapons, they retained the same AoE animation until recently.

While I don't support bringing back the AoE animation for torps, they would be well suited to another AoE weapon; thus bombs.

Oh, yes. I am a bomber pilot. And I so want to see a bombing run with this animation. Because **** lag. It would be zomg pwnge!

I WANT IT NAOW!

It's the festive launcher isn't it!

ISN'T IT?!


Nope, you're getting 4 shiny new ships, and I expect you all to go out and kill eachother in the middle of the face with them.

Requiar moar explosions! Big smile



Mate I love new ships, I love decent and interesting designs and lastly I love sub-capitals especially the smaller ships.

Cannot wait to try them all out for the first time!! So excited I made a post =D

I too liked the old missile effects. The new ones are too fancy, like they've got something to prove.

The old Torpedo effects made fights an eye-sore. Pull camera out a couple hundred KM and the shock waves still filled the damn screen.

Yea, I loved the rainbow, when every missile had its own color for an explosion.

Now explosions are all the same and moreover have more bugs, like dealing damage before they even get to the target or wrong tooltip for the range.

Whatever.

Er.. New Missile effects look quite different for each damage type. However, torps and explosions in general could do with a bit of work.
