Player Features and Ideas Discussion

Crucifier, nail shape, amarian religious back-story, good ewar system. Was a good ship with personality.

There are really people who preferred the old flying abortion to the new Crucifier?

Man, you people are just insane. This is the pure essence of madness here.

the old model was one of the worst models in the game.

asymmetry in the overall structure of a ship is silly and should never happen. small parts, like the pod on the megathron's side or the cockpit on the millenium falcon are understandable, but in both cases the main hull is generally symmetrical. asymmetry just makes a ship complex for no corresponding gain.

real warships are only asymmetrical when they need to be. aircraft carriers are, but they have a distict reason to be that way. asymmetrical turret arrangements were tried with some early British dreadnought battleship classes, but they were dispensed with because in line turrets accomplished the same goal of a full broadside better,with less complex internal arrangements. EVE may not be strong on realism and science, but theres no reason to exaggerate that with ship models that just have pieces hanging all over the place for no good reason.

Why did you even bother making this thread?

CCP spent actual development time and money making a new model for the Crucifier. They're not going to just go "oh, bring back the old one" because some people don't like it.

I swear to god, you people are on drugs and will have a hissy fit about literally ANYTHING.

If you hate change that much, why are you playing a constantly-changing game like EVE?



Since you have clearly never flown or interacted with a Marauder in your entire life, let me clue you in: Marauders need a special module to trigger that animation, and you only see it when that module is active. Where is the animation-triggering module or status for the Crucifier's animation? OH RIGHT. IT DOESN'T HAVE ONE YET.

Nobody's come up with any ideas yet for what should trigger animations on subcaps other than Marauders yet. Nobody's designed modules or statuses or special operation modes for anything of the sort. They're re-designing ships with the animation included right now so that they don't have to go back and re-design them again later. Get your head out of your ass and stop acting so bloody self-entitled.

Not that it matters. Any reason in the world, no matter how important or true it may be is just an excuse, right? Logic and reality and resource limitations? Nonsense! Those are just pathetic excuses! CCP has no right to deny you your animations when you want them to be delivered and they should be grateful you don't demand that they pay you to play their game! Right?

People like you are the reason CCP doesn't tell us as much about development as they used to. For that, you have my eternal contempt.

Certainly, but that doesn't invalidate what I said.
