Player Features and Ideas Discussion

I usually don't make this kind of topics, but it seemed a good idea to do so this time.

Many of us would like to see the upcoming T3 Minmatar Destroyer to be vertical. Right now all existing destroyers are quite lineal; while that certainly isn't a bad thing, new ones are a good opportunity to explore new concepts, unless CCP's vision of destroyers is that of horizontal ships.

I think the best way of showing our support for the vertical concept is to do so explicitally, so that is the purpose of this topic:

Comment here if you want the T3 Minmatar destroyer to be vertical!

Of course, if you don't want it to be vertical, say so too! Everyone's voice should be heard.

To help designing and mental visualizing, here are some examples:

- Rupture
- Naglfar
- Tyrfing
- Concept 1
- Concept 2
- Concept 3
- Non-EVE example (still a human ship)
- Another non-EVE example

EDIT: remember these are just examples; the final ship does not have to be like any of them.
EDIT 2: another example.
EDIT 3: another great example from SIrera Artrald (Concept 3).
EDIT 4: please don't forget about the cooling fins! Very good examples at concepts 1 and 3.

EDIT 5: this is the current ship's concept art, from o7. However on the video they weren't sure how was it oriented, and then they mentioned it was only one of the 3 modes. Hope still lives...

EDIT 6: Succeed! I call this a victory fellow capsuleers!

yes! need moar vertical ship :3

I love tall ships! (and stars to sail them by)

+1 from me.

Vertical, yes. Resembling any of the examples given, no. Well, the first one isn't too bad, but the second one looks like a rusty myrmidon, and the third one doesn't look like it'll fall apart if you fart in its general direction.

I fully support this, +1

I kind of want a Glaive now.

Yes, to all 3, love them all

I would like a vertical destroyer please, but the choice between a skeleton maulus, a rotting zombie myrm and a caldari station kinda puts me off

Fair point :) fear not! Those were just some visual examples of what I was talking about, as do the already existing ships mentioned before those. The Minmatar D3 doesn't have to be like any of those! Editing OP to clear that out.

YEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
