Only Star Wars smaller vessel that embraces the Caldari design ethic would be the YT-2400. I'd dearly love a Firefly. Or a YT-1930, seeing as how I've never seen one in any game or movie. |

Thisthough it doesn't tank well. Or one of the R-Types (one-shot motherships when fully charged  ) |

Edited by: Aurora Aujii on 05/07/2009 01:32:22I would love to fly the White Star class cruiser from Babylon 5. The ship had stealth cloak, system jump capability, bio-armoured hull, Vorlon shields (tech III), quantum, neutron and fusion cannons (5 in total), had tractor beams and carried a compliment of 4 Fighters (not drones). The ship specs would likely closely match a tech III cruiser in EVE, but the White Star looked amazing.... That would be my dream ship in EVE (some of the Jovian ships would be nice too... P.S. the ship was amazingly fast as well, and agile <check some of the White Star footage .... White Star > |

Culture ships would be nice, although with the ship Minds controlling them, we'd just be passengers. Although if I could play a Mind, I'd love to take a Rapid Offensive Unit for a spin.
Ships from the old Terran Trade Authority books would rock. I always liked the look of the gunship Gerling used as his flagship.
Not to be forgotten, Renegade Legion: Leviathan. The Minmatar Maelstrom reminds me of the TOG Shiva. |

See, that's half the point. Tell the Mind "go conquer all of EVE", and go pillage the GSV's supply of beer, drugs, and women. |

But for that we'd need the "Walking and ****ing in GSVs" update as a patch to WiS. Any day now.  |

"Megaira" from David Weber's "In Fury Born".
Hadn't actually thought of this one, but it's actually not a bad suggestion as a rapid-strike high-damage vessel... after all, there's something to be said for firing missiles with black holes for warheads. Only problem would be the time it takes that thing to get around - mind you, you could bypass stargates with a ridiculously small ship, but it would take a while. |

. Just as I think Nemesis is influenced by slave-1.
I meant Maulus. Shows how much I fly frigates..
Nemesis looks like Prince Xizors virago  I guess I would like to fly an Eclipse Class Super Star Destroyer. Death star super laser FTW! |

Glad I'm not the first person to say it, Tiger's Claw. Loaded with Raptors (screw the Rapier) I'd never need another ship. In fact I named my Thanatos "TCS Tiger's Claw". A few people mentioned the Pkunk Fury from Star Control 2. Its way too light, doesn't hit hard enough, though I will admit the auto-smack feature would be nice. For me it'd be the Spathi Eluder. It is no exaggeration to say that an Eluder piloted by the good Captain Fwiffo is the ship I use 99% of the time in SC2. Its fast, its maneuverable, it can take a few hits and it can fire on the run. I'm surprised nobody has mentioned anything from Ender's Game. Take any ship with a Little Doctor and boom goes a blob. That and being commanded by a 12 year old from across the universe certainly describes all the ships in Eve. |

I didn't see anyone choose the Scimitar warbird from ST: Nemesis.
52 Disruptors, 27 Photon Torpedo bays, Covops cloaking ability (plus can fire weapons while cloaked), carries fighters, tanks like a Mothership, plus the Thalaron super weapon that can kill a planet (planetary Doomsday Device). Sounds like a winner to me!
This would be no good in eve thow. You only have to bump it of station and it be down. |

Everything & anything from the following vid:
X3 Xtended
If Eve looked/felt/moved like the above then I'd never play another game again.
The variation in ship types & styles is very well done as is the uniformity of ships to whatever race made them. Organic & truly alien looking ships are also very well done and seem to be sorely lacking in Eve (rouge drones & sleepers don't quite cut it for me).
In fact, maybe CCP should just hire that modding team for a while
Cmonn now... CCP doenst have that much money to hire some uber/or close team of designers.. our CCP poor.. they only earning 300k x 14.5$ in a month.. WHAT u EXPECTing ?
Tbh I'd say EVEs ship models are far better looking. What I cannot understand for the life of me though is why they haven't done something about the SINGLE MOST IMPORTANT aspect of a spacegame looking awesome. Planets. You never interact with them perhaps, but they have so much to do with how space looks and feels. Less nebula, realistic planets, EVE wins. |
