Kudos to CCP on the new V3 Skins - I think everyone would agree that Gallente and Caldari ships look pretty amazing now, even though the models remain the same.

Still - my alternates now have an inferiority complex! My disco-dance-laser Abaddon is now being outshined by the fresh polish on my Hyperion.


In all seriousness, does the art team have a guess on when the other half of New Eden will be sporting new V3 skins? Is that planned for Crucible patches, or will we be waiting until the summer expansion?


On a similar note - Missiles had been talked about briefly (finally) during the openings of Crucible's dialogue. I recall Soundwave finally acknowledging it's something CCP wants to do, but due to the technical difficulties of having missiles spawning from as many as eight different hardpoints it didn't make it into Crucible. Is there a timeframe at all on this feature? Is it even being worked on or, like FW and Starbase Code, is it a sticky note on someone's wall?

I know you can't give hard dates on either of these (something about players flipping out when you change that hard date...) but a rough idea of if you're even attempting these fixes and whether they'll be a part of Crucible, the next expansion, or in the case of the missiles, not even being worked on at this time. Thanks!

I'm really curious too...

I am quite a graphics whore and I spent a metric fuckton of money on my quad GTX 590, i7990 and custom mobo setup for a reason...

I think they're still in the meeting to check the feasbility of missile launcher turrets.

Amarr and Minamtar V3 is green light and in progress and should be done by next expansion

What I am more curious over is the altenrtive skin jobs they wanted to microtransaction sale.
