I just watched the new Dominion Trailer. Is it just me,or was the Chimera carrier firing anti aircraft guns all over the place like in BSG? Is this something they are adding?

Edited by: Iamien on 25/11/2009 18:44:10 The trailers are pre-rendered not real-time. They do not use the eve client to make those videos only some of the eve resources. They use some 3D movie program to make it.
As such, they can make much higher quality trailers than they can in-game graphics much like other games do. Part of the reason is because EVE handicaps itself in it's graphic technology in order to avoid alienating those with older hardware.

That sucks, would be cool to have AA on carriers, as do real carriers in real life.

Firing guns all over the place is a time honored tradition that did not begin with BSG.

Doesn't detract that it would be an excellent addition to the game.
A Carrier/Supercarrier only module. 1 per Carrier, 2 per Supercarrier. Auto firing, auto locking, anti drone/fighter/missile flak weapon.
Fires at any incoming missile with X% chance to take it down, maybe 25% base, upped by skills to 50%, fires at drones and fighters, MAYBE frigate-class hulls, not useable against anything larger, not a directed weapon.
Since they're not pushing anything out for supercarriers with dominion maybe something like this can be thrown in the supercarrier patch.
Or maybe it's just wishful thinking.
But it certainly would give Carriers/Supercarriers more purpose in a fleet. Antidrone/fighter/missile platform.
It could work, and would be bad ass. Family Motto:

It's just you. Look closer at the shots. They're not guns shooting from the carrier, they're incoming shots from the approaching craft impacting on the carrier.

Looks like this to me too. The autocannon effect is funny that way, since it sometimes looks like the tracer fire is moving in the wrong direction.

Funny how they call the moms super carriers even though there is no changes coming to them. To further the irony I wonder if the dual titan focus fire was on one of the nyx's that get popped in the end. Right now, moms will insta-pop with two titan hits. Shame they are not gonna get at least a boost in HP.
Hide those supper carriers / motherships for a few years till CCP revisits them.

I'm no youth, only reason I mention BSG, is most sci-fi space battles from any show or movie did not do the flak, AA gun effect nearly as well as BSG.

I looked closely, and those tracers are definitely coming from the chimera towards other ships, no question.

I completely agree, it would be awesome. It wouldn't have to be that powerful either, just enough dps to destroy drones and frigs, maybe mess up a cruiser a little, but mostly just have very fast tracking speed.

Not only that, but every weapon mounted on a spaceship could be considered AA, since there are no ground based enemies.
