I am in favour of low-mid slot explosion-velocity etc
Also, I proposed these new mods should be fuel-power, rather than cap power.
A missile work differenttly from bullets, you want to turbo-boost it? get some nitro in the launcher....

that said...

I would like to see some Tomahawk class missiles AND ECM style Missiles coming along the way,
CRUISE SIZE AND TORP SIZE ONLY
Tomahawk class would an heavy assult style missile for BS....

ECM missiles could be for all sizes launcher, also FOF, that would be very intesting in opening new GAMEPLAYS styles!


Basically Tomahawk coud get SMARTER than theyr counterparts, by affecting theyr radius and speed from an injector from a mod within the launcher ( double loading system- maybe way too overpowered) or a Mid-low slot injector- smart guidance system
for this, I think a new kind of missile is needed, it just dont feel right that all kind of missiles could get this technology.
my point of view.

No, and reported.

Stay in the same thread and stop reposting in fresh threads the same rubbish. If you can“t take the heat get a thicker skin and you might also wanna consider checking, if you points were valid in the first place.

...ECM missiles?

Like missiles that break target lock and stop you from locking things, with no chance to fail? Wow, I don't see how that would be utterly obnoxious, brokenly overpowered and completely unnecessary in every way.

1. Tomahawks are cruise missiles.
2. Heavy assault missiles have no guidance systems. They are a 'dumb' weapon system. Tomahawks are 'smart'.
3. Battleships already have cruise missiles and rapid heavy missile launchers which is very similiar to what you're suggesting

No offense but are you insane?

No point campaigning for missile love. CCP have been steadily nerfing missiles over the years as they cause lag in large fleet fights, you'll note that drones are getting the same treatment for exactly the same reasons. The few worthwhile missile systems that are left have significant drawbacks that make guns a more appropriate choice in most pvp situations. As others have said though, you should join a pre existing thread instead of starting a new one. You are making work for the moderators when none is needed. They won't be happy.

Dumbing down of Eve Online will result in it's destruction...
