I have been watching SISI for this but no joy yet - wondering if it si finalized and if it is actually coming or is that later - maybe a Dev can comment and toss some eye-candy at us? any hope of Missile Turrets on the horizon?

You know what'd be awesome? If missiles got easier to fit (ESPECIALLY light missile launchers; those are an abomination), and in addition to launcher turret models, missile velocity was increased dramatically. At a cut to flight time, though. Take too long to hit anything in PvP IMO.

not sure what that has to do with the new crow... but...

Turret models would be a win.

Velocity and Flight time = Rigs... sheesh...

...and no they don't they are just fine - personally I like T2 rockets with Rage for the win... work very very well.

There's absolutely nothing wrong with rockets. There is everything wrong with light missiles.

Also those rigs damage tank, which I personally find to be rather important.

Has there really been any confirmation that the new model of the condor is actually going to be included in the game? It was confirmed that it was a CCP creation but I don't remember it being said that it had been approved or anything.

That is the price, personally lights aren't much good even with changes, rockets are better for the ships you would mount them on... just like I use HAMs on anything with cruiser mounts - there are always going to be the lack-luster versions of things in a game.

But my post wasn't on game mechanics it was on the art and revamping of the models and fittings... hope that they add them soon(er)... would be nice to have non-nake cal ships, as well as my naked Khanid ships.
