So we are taking a decent combat frigate and making it target bait. Well done! This change does sound like a committee decision. Taking away one of the turret hard points is disabling this ship. Why fly it? It can't tackle. It can't fight. All it can do now is pop.
quoted for truth, faction frigates need resistances, else they are a waste of a POD
Are you both being moronic on purpose? Here, let me break out a calculator for you!
Damage at Amarr Frigate V - Current Slicer - 3 Turrets * (1+.05*5) = 3 * 1.25 = 3.75 effective turrets Shiny New Slicer - 2 Turrets * (1+.25*5) = 2 * 2.25 = 4.5 effective turrets
OMFG, you mean that ships with marauder-level gun bonuses and gun turrets now act ... just like marauders when it comes to guns? What an amazing discovery! So you're now doing more damage at a longer range, and that somehow makes it combat ineffective?!
Well founded balance discussions are useful. Whines from people who can't read or use math are not. ----

Hmm, I wonder - when will the lesser of the navy cruisers get some loving? (Here's looking at you, Navy Exequror) ----

Edited by: Ezekiel Sulastin on 17/09/2009 00:52:22 CCP, you need to have a little chat with your art team. If you're going to give the Navy Dominix the jungle camo of the Deimos, Navy Vexor, and Navy Exequror instead of the black and white of the Navy Comet and Navy Megathron, at LEAST make sure the camo isn't symmetrical.
The crap isn't as obvious on the navy Exequror since the ship itself is asymmetrical leaving only the front end to reveal the laziness of the artists, but the Dominix is symmetrical making it plainly obvious.
They did it right on the Navy Vexor, and they did it right on the Deimos - if they're too lazy to recognise that symmetrical camo looks like crap, have them do the skin in the Navy Mega's black and white.
{Edit}I didn't even notice you screwed up the Mega's skin, rofl. AT LEAST YOU DID THAT ONE RIGHT, even if jungle camo in space looks like crap. Just use the black-and white skin for every Gallente faction ship - it really does look a lot better than Green Camo In Black Space. Why you couldn't stick with the black and white or the navy vexor's black and gold is beyond me. At least you all haven't screwed up the Navy Comet yet - you still have plenty of time, though {/edit} ----

Originally by: FURY EG Why the hell have you changed the color of Navythron? Camouflage in space? WTF?! Bring back the black color!
Because they gave the black and white to the Amarr: http://img3.imageshack.us/img3/9554/20090916235434.jpg
Thanks CCP - but maybe you need to tell us exactly what Gallente and Minmatar did to **** you off :X |

Screenshot from Trinity teaser. Proves once again that CCP videos does not belong to the game that we play.
Actually, that's a screenshot of the normal Megathron, and the outcome of the original 'baby blue' Gallente Trinity skin in dark lighting.
I kinda miss that idea - I kinda wish they had gone with the same light hull color but a more saturated blue for that, but what we did get is better than pastels :S
Does anyone remember back when the Vexor was a knife-edged ship with a stark front end instead of a Domi-esque miniblob? :p ----

Originally by: Aionstar dead black base color was perfect why it was changed to gray/baby-blue?
That was a lighting trick. ----

Originally by: Mylena Gnarn Well before the changes, passive tanks could give alot higher defense than perma boosted ones.. Now they about on par and just a matter of preference and skill choices...
This is true but that came at the sacrifice of dps which was to make it equal, now with this you cannot compete passively anymore... With the CNR being nuetered im glad I went T2 cause I dont see any future for the scorpian as well. I am sure that T2 is the next in the chute to get whacked but hopefully that will take a bit longer so I can pay off my ship at least this time.
Why the everliving crap would you want to passive tank a BS?!
