EVE General Discussion

Ok..'common guys... Let's get back on topic..
It's supposed to be a fun thread about spit balling things we'd like to see in Eve, even if they're only wishful thinking.

On topic. It's interesting actually, because CCP have actually been adding all the things I've wanted to see. The guys I had been flying with for the past two years could tell you that years ago, I had talked about how everyone's always talking on the forums about getting new classes of T3 ships, specifically T3 battleships or battlecruisers. I mentioned to them, my corp mates, that I'd actually prefer to see something more along the lines of T3 destroyers. This was before the tier 2 destroyers were released, and when they came out, I was mildly satisfied, because the number of destroyers in the game at that time was exactly 8: one t1 and t2 per class. it was a kind of miserable line that needed attention. I'm kinda glad I never suggested it on the forums, because sometimes I feel like NOT suggesting things increases the chances of getting them ^_^

On that note, in a conversation with my friend who is known as Edward Aivo in-game, early in 2015 we were running some shield Scythes to rep a tower, and we talked for hours about the lack of attention that t1 logi frigates were getting. So yah.... we kinda talked about t2 logi frigates as well. I was on a break when the expansion that included them came out, so I wasn't here for there release, and coming back to see them in the game resulted in my jumping on Facebook and getting Ed on a chat and saying, "hey, they added another one of our ships without us ever bringing them up in an official capacity."

There's just one more that we've talked about, and mentioning here will probably result in it never seeing the light of day, but if I don't recommend it, just talk about it, it may still have a chance.

T2 battlestars: based around the last not-yet-t2'd battleship hull in each race (Hyperion, Abaddon, Rokh, and Maelstrom), they would be fast self-sufficient sub-cap fighter carrier gunships balanced with marauders as much as possible. No bastion, no cloak, just exceptional damage and tanking bonuses that can apply strictly to combat (no ewar, overheat, or prop bonuses, just straight-up combat) with a focus on fighter deployments, making fighters usable in highsec. (Honestly, I have never understood why we don't have fighters in highsec to begin with, but meh). They would essentially be the Assault Frigates/HACs of the battleships: mobile, versatile, and user-friendly with nothing terribly complicated fittings-wise. Drawbacks? Well, that's up to the balancing team. I'm not suggesting anything, I'm just talking about what I'd like to see.

We already have fps view for ships?
