Hmmm...

Credit to Sarmatiko for the render. (Well who else was it really going to be Lol )

Do not argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and beat you with experience.

Sometimes when I post, I look at my sig and wish that I'd follow my own god damned advice.

First.

Oh god, the panels! And all the (apparent) missile hardpoints!

I think you're a little late with your OP,

https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=154203&find=unread

Smile

edit - nm, my derp, it is indeed a new one, not the caldari one Oops


and I see only 4 launcher hardpoints Question (one set for each side ?) So this again makes me think these ships will have something other than just 8 weapons and gank. Some possible role bonus (Command links at a probably lesser percentage for small sized ship gangs?, or some new type of ewar bonuses?)

Will we get a T2 version that looks like this and can tug other boats?

You almost ruined my first-posting pride. Luckily, you were wrong (and I was about to yell at you).

I stopped the video at 00:22 and realized, with horror, that it looks exactly like something that might come out of somebody's lower intestines.

Yeah, looks like a turd.


I am not flying this even if it can single-handedly lock and destroy a full bomber wing.

Sounds like the end to station/docking games?

Looking for more thoughts? Follow me on Twitter.

I yelled at myself, so don't bother. Oops

Someone posted a comment on Youtube that it looks Amarrian. It does somewhat resemble the Abaddon in shape and coloration. Maybe if they darken the color and add some leftover forgotten scaffolding on it it would not be subject to such insults.P

I'm starting to see a pattern here...

A professional astro-bastard was not available so they sent me.

Indeed! Awesomenesss personified.

I also suggest it make a hooting noise when activating the tug module.

Not to mention that this would revolutionize our local cult crazy's mining bumping business and bring closer the ritual biomassing to ascend to the next level that is sure to follow.

Only hilarious things can come from this! Make it so CCP!

If that is the kind of turds you see, I pity your rectum.What?

Also, people still fly apoc, blackbird, moa, imicus, etc hulls. It's one thing to not like the ship hull. But even I would fly an apoc if it destroyed a full bomber wing.Big smile

Dear lord, that is horrific.

Firstly, overlapping solar panels?

Secondly, using a large tootsie roll as a model for the hull is just bad, bad, bad.



edit: found the name and image for the hull candy bar.

It's a good start. Now alter the proportions and reshape the front wings in a clear blade shape and we'll have ourselves a good looking spaceship and stabbing instrument.

Those aren't solar panels, they're shield emitters, or wingy bits.

I see 8, two per hardpoint assembly. (unofficial paint image provided by me P )

And we can name it the "Shiv" because homemade weapons pretty much scream Minmatar.

Am I the only one who likes it? It's apparent ccp is going in a submarine direction with these things, so i expect the gallente one to have smooth curves and be quite phallic, and the amarr one to be a turtle shell.

And i like that.

I mean, this only makes sense lore-wise. You need a high-point for command systems, and you need a long body to fit all those launchers on. The solar panels are probably antennae or emitters of some sort.

That's a Templar, an Amarr fighter used by carriers.

Or a skinny Retriever. Remove the middle section, add the panels and a short squat conning tower.
