Player Features and Ideas Discussion

So the game is apparently missing a Caldari - Minmatar pirate entity, kind of silly, considering how many duplicates we have, ie, serpentis and angel (sort of, same factions) guristas and Mordu. Shields and autocannons? idk, thats not what i really care about atm.

I have another gripe with this game, sort of unfounded really. The lack of logical, intelligent ship design. While this game has a wide array of excellent and extraordinary ship models, there are very few designs that are grounded in reality (in my opinion) The Ragnarok has the appearance of having an incredibly weak spine, the Leviathan appears to also be very fragile at the nose and at its extremities, the Avatar has a giant hole in the middle of its bulwark, the Erebus is bulbous monstrosity. I could pick apart ships all day, so ill name a few that appeal to me in this regard: The Rokh seems like a ship that would make sense to build. Despite being a shield ship, it doesnt look fragile at all, it still imposes a (light) sense of fear. It looks like it has really thick armor built around a robust structure. The hurricane has long, angled armor plating, which would be super effective when speeding towards an enemy. The algos gives of a very clear vibe that its a carrier of some sort, with expansive, heavily armored decks that would fit space fighters (light drones in this case (also, they are space fighters, they dont need a giant runway when you are in space ffs. Im looking at you, carriers and super carriers. Caldari is fine here)). Cant really find anything from amarr (their damn undersides are always exposed) On the topic of SOE ships, sure, they are a bit 'better' in this regard, however all ships have internal warp drives, why do you need to have those 'wingy bits'?

You get the point.

Good opportunity to check these both of the(my) list


TLDR:
-Create Caldari-Minmatar pirate faction
-Have their ships' models be more grounded in reality, or atleast more realistic models (Rokh, Hurricane, algos (sorta))
-Understand that this is probably just a me thing and im complaining about nothing important, atleast when it comes to the models

Just going to point this out, because I'm a lore monkey.

Eve physics are on the level of casually warping space time for storage and creating antimatter and exotic molecular composites. The ships don't need to look realistic, the thinnest part of one of those hulls is likely not only capable of supporting the weight of the entire ship at 1g, it's either able to withstand an antimatter impact or so easily repaired by nanotech that it doesn't matter.

I mean, the obvious is some kind of skirmishy self-tanked missile boat. The problem is that all of that synergizes really well together already so it'd be hard to find something that both gives the faction their own identity but doesn't end up hilariously OP while it's trying to stand out from all the skirmishy missile ships we've already got.

I think if CCP were to create ships for an already existing faction it'd probably be the Thucker, since they already exist and have the whole Minmatar tribalism combined with cut throat mercantilism thing going.
