I was looking through ISIS and looked at many of the T2 ships you can find and I noticed that each T2 have their own brand that have created them, aswell as their according skin and color theme.

It makes me curious to if more T2 or T3 ships were to be added into the future, what ships would the said corporations focus on?

Rhoden Shipyards, Khanid Innovations, Vizior, Lai Dai... all of them have several ships they have made across many T2 ships. But the question is... how many more ships could possibly be added? Would they have their own unique appearances?

Could be fun to see what new ships the future will hold. Since the appearance of the Attack Battlecruisers (Naga, Talos, Oracle and Typhoon) and the new generation of Destroyers (Algos, Corax, Dragoon and Talwar), it could get interesting to see if T2 versions of them are made and see which T2 ship corporations call the dibs on them.

This is just a little amusing thought of mine, not a request. But it has some food for thought atleast.

Maybe. I certainly hope so. There absolutely needs to be far more ship skins available for purchase on the NEX store if anything.

The problem is, the T2 ships were made by corporation reknown for their research (you may notice all those corps which made T2 ships also have research agents), so it's logical they made ships.

It gets harder to explain why other corps, which aren't well known for ship production or research prowess, should make new ships. Pirates steal ****, the Mordus are mercenaries with their own sources, SOE just get helped by other corps, but what about normal corps? The Federation Navy for example wouldn't normally need to expend ressources for researching and inventing a new ship, since they're part of the Gallente Federation and can just order a new ship from Roden Shipyards or something.

But I do confess it would be interesting to see new corporations being brought into focus. Would also be nice if we get expedition frigates not made by Outer Ring Excavations. Those guys already have invented every single mining barge, T1 and T2, the Venture and know the new T2-expedition frigate, too! Let some other corp shine next, OK? Big smile

Not all corporations build their own ships.

Also this post would fit better under Features and Ideas.
