Upcoming Feature and Change Feedback Center

For people complaining about the wings (nitpicking at this point), aside from the fact that the manufacturer is clearly called CONCORD Aerospace, wings can serve a purpose aside from generating air pressure and thus lift. In Star Wars, the wings of ships are used as heat sinks to bleed excess heat from the weapons and engines, for example. Then there are properties like those seen in Mordu's Legion, where they are loaded with precision electronics systems for combat. and have a sort of radar-deterring form.

More-over, as CONCORD takes its roots from all four empires, I'd say these ships strike a good aesthetic middle ground between the four factions and some of their subsidiaries. Not to mention they look sexy as all hell. The only odd thing/bummer is the drone issue....


I imagine that after their period of exclusivity, these ships will probably be released in some sort of in-game event, and much further down the line, be "candied" out much like what happened to the Gnosis. I could also see them doing it as part of a package deal instead, but given the past trends, I'd say that's highly unlikely - at least not exclusively.


Now for my only imput... CCPlz Give these faction skins like you did with the mining ships! Me needz a rusty Minmatar or shiny gold CONCORD ship in my life. o3o

Actually, if you look at the wings, they have glowing orange portions that look like they could serve as heat-sinks. Further reinforces the Star Wars theory.

And about the tech combination, that's why I prefer these new designs. As I recall from old Chronicles and The Empyrean Age, CONCORD used to be described as using classified Jovian tech to make them so dangerous to capsuleers.

I like this new version where they're so dangerous because they combine the bleeding edge of all 4 nations to make ships that are basically impossible to kill, and then take care of damage with unbeatable numbers.

Cruiser and frigate are already in database on SISI..

No offense, but they've pretty much stated from the get-go that they would be released for fanfest attendees then everyone else later on. In fact every conversation I've seen with or without CCP devs about them has been that everyone will get access to them, just people going to fanfest are getting them before anyone else. They couldn't have been for clear about that unless they'd have sent out emails to every eve player with an active account.

Forget it, Diomedes. I'd like to think that I'm the pessimist in my family, hell at the very least I'm a pretty cynical son of a *****, but there's really no making some people happy.

They never stated how anyone else would get them, just that people with a ticket would get them sooner than everyone else. I know the OP here doesn't specify "everyone", but I remember a reddit post announcing them some time ago stating they will eventually be available to the general public after fanfest attendees have had sufficient exclusive access to them. Also, https://updates.eveonline.com had at one point up until recently indicated this. Unless this is their way of saying that they've changed their minds on degree of access planned, which I hope not.

The DEV's stated at EVE Vegas 2016 that all these ships would be available to "all" pilots even if you did not attend.
So CCP, how are you going to make this so ???

(And the market is not the answer)

any word a bomb launcher fozzie?

it would be strictly worse for bombing than a real SB due to no damage bonus but come with the ability to have bonused probes so you wouldn't need an alt or have to use an unbonused probe launcher on a bomber

i'd personally use it for FCing and im probably not the only one

One, link to the moment when they say it.
Two, Fanfest 2017 has more actual info about changes coming.

This question is answered in the OP and has been since Fozzie posted it...
