So, once upon a time there were awesome looking megapulse lasers.

I want these megapulses back, they also had a chargeup sound before the shot went off

They were AWESOME.

Current Megapulses are in NO WAY awesome and their sound effect is still broken

Gimme back the awesome megapulses!

At least you have something.

I'm a missile boat pilot, and I have no idea when i'm getting any type of missile effect besides a floating light than makes a small boom (except torps) when it hits the target.

Be glad you have anything.

Early morning bump, woke up early because I had nightmares about how **** the current Mega Pulses look.

How could you even think it was a good move to replace the really cool looking/sounding old ones with the seizure eardrum torture effects you have now?

CCP I want answers! you know better!

Bump. I want the cool laser effects, the cool looking missle explosion effects, and my strip miner lasers light show effects back.

All these new tamer effects look like s***.

When I first started playing I remember the lasers looked cool... I eventually trained Amarr BS and, much to my dismay, I found that the lasers weren't anywhere near as cool-looking as I remembered. Especially from zoomed out.

Bring back the cool look, please!

THOSE are the very lasers I saw in all the EVE vids before I started. I so miss the thunderbolt impact flares too. Kinda made up for using them in a tengu. Use scourge, you get +25% damage. Use thunders, no damage bonus but they look great. AC's are regretibly too hard to see. 800 AC's sound like crap. Why the hell does the 220 AC have no pup-up animation and the 425 AC sound exactly the same? Stript miners are absolutely trash. And, for the love of all that is holy, medium blasters still clip a few hundred meters through intended targets.

Eh...I'll stop now. Kinda got carried away there.

"Tomahawks?"

"----in' A, right?"

"Trouble is, those things cost like a million and a half each."

"----, you pay me half that and I'll hump in some c4 and blow the ---- out of it my own damn self."

These lasers are MEGA pulse lasers, 1 gigantic pulse that punches towards the target at insane speed

CCP, the old Mega Pulse laser was amazing, by far the coolest weapon effect you've ever made(apart from old Ragnarok doomsday) Please give us back these lasers!!


Edit : with the new "not firing all at the same time" graphical effect they'd look ever more fearsome and devastating in pvp, current ones just look like seizure beams.

And we want the old EM missile shockwave back! that's also one of the coolest things you've ever designed, I loved seeing targets being bombarded by EM missiles(if the effect is too "big" or disturbing in pvp ,just reduce the size of it but bringi t back!)
