Size.

In regards of a previous suggestion, from a fellow forum member, I wanna suggest the following based on his idea.

His suggestion was, that the models of capital ships be increased massively. An Idea I fully suport, since flying in, on a personal note, a Chimera, and having a "battleship feel" is a rather hard anticlimax, after +2½ years of training.

In addition, because of the increased size of capitals(if so implemented), I'd like to see the size of stations increase as well.

Reason being:

Compared to the present size of a carrier, there would hardly be room to fit even one, in an present average outpost, when looking at capital shipsize Vs. the model of the station, and even less so with increased model sizes.

Hence my suggestion is: Increase the model size of all carriers, super caps and so forth, and do the same with the model size of stations.

I, for one, would love to have a feeling of awe when approaching these mastodonts in space.

In addtion.

Another poster here on the forum, suggested a ~10.000.000 M3 capital hauler.

If this ship is implemented (and would be allowed to fly highsec, if so decided) it would fully support the new model size of stations and outposts, letting the physical volume (and thus lore) follow with the size of the outposts.

Thanks

Dantes Wolf.

PS. MEN, want it BIG, CCP - look at what the Humvee project ended out with: A massive Peen-enlarger, cruising the streets from 1½ meters above the road. - Why? Because a survey proved, that most men driving, want's a big f*cking car, feeling like they own the road, driving it.

It's the excact same here, CCP: Give us PEENS!

Thanks.

I assume you are referring to this thread.

I agree with you, but would like to clarify that I think dreads and titan sizes are ~perfect.

In my opinion - Supercarriers should be increased in size ~1.9x, carriers ~1.7x

Stations should be increased in size ~3-5 fold.

...Why the hell would someone be allowed to haul ten carriers at a time through highsec?

10 mil m3 hauler, good idea but it must be restricted to lowsec-null 'cos otherwise you could trasnfer caps in hisec as Danika Implied.

Is it too late to suggest that in a sea of good reasons to make capitals actually be capital-sized, "my genitalia is too small and I want to feel like it's enormous" is a really really bad one?

+1 on stations, they are so laughably small. I guess its so they allow people on both sides to fit on grid or whatever but bleh.

Humvees are abominations however P

Well, yeah, absolutely every single one of these with anything inside would be ganked in seconds, but that's not the point.
