Ok, so did a quick search of the forums and I cant find it being suggested anywhere, if it has been, then please delete the thread.
There are a huge number of ships in New Eden, from shuttles to titans. Why are there only a handful of wreck models? Models that look nothing like the ships that they came from.
The wreck models are just balls of slag metal on various scales. Imagine if when you destroyed a Raven, the model looked like a raven with is wing blown off?
Or and Archon thats been cracked in two? How about a Vindi with its front blown off?
There is so much that can be done with the wreck models that would increase immersion. So when you are salvaging a wreck, it actually looks like a wreck of a ship.

Your Search-Fu is weak!

Remake Wreck Models

Stupidity should be a bannable offense.

Fighting back is more fun than not.

didn't see that, but it's over a year old and no real opinion was gained, maybe time to relook at it?

Then we maybe should look at this thread?

Increase immersion with model accurate wrecks

All those topics are locked indefinitely of course, just as this one will soon be.

EDIT: or like this thread: Capsuleer ship destruction

Point taken, so basically most people want it, but its not going to happen.
Thread is redundant.

Have you looked at capital ship wrecks in recent history? Or a look at Dev`blogs like this?

My ridicule, heavy criticism and general pale outlook about your or CCP's ideas is nothing but an encouragement to prove me wrong. Give it a try.

Thread is redundant.

I am not sure the rule against redundant threads applies when there is no open thread on the topic. I'd certainly hope not.

I have reopened the longest thread given as link above to continue the discussion.
This thread can therefore be locked for redundancy.

The Rules:
17. Redundant and re-posted threads will be locked.

As a courtesy to other forum users, please search to see if there is a thread already open on the topic you wish to discuss.
If so, please place your comments there instead. Multiple threads on the same subject clutter up the forums needlessly, causing good feedback and ideas to be lost. Please keep discussion regarding a topic to a single thread.
