It's got shirt tails!

No docking bay? How big? Say compared to the Trident (which does have docking bay if I remember correctly)

Looks like there's two docking bays on the bottom - one in the front, one in the back. Or I could just be seeing things.

Quoth Incarnate:
Some bits and pieces will probably be tweaked a little, but overall I think it's a cool design. It'll fit well for a destroyer sized light escort vessel (compared to the massive scale of the Nemesis class cruisers). It does not have a docking bay.

O.M.G.

That looks cool.

Rocks. Rocks. Rocks!

That is superb.

What are those two flat rails behind?

And, if there aren't any docking bay, how are we going to man this thing? I presume a ship this size requires more than one pilot right?

Like I said in the other thread, what are those railroad tracks coming out the back?
(Besides great places to shoot the ship and kill it, far away from the guns. They'll make it far more vulnerable.)

Based on that reasoning there should be only one ship design: a needle. It's tactically great, but booooorrring.

Looks very cool, cant wait to see it ingame and eventually fly it :>

i am very upset that the programmers are wasting time on silly things like the user interface. you say the cap ship is 'too hard to fly'.

simply add a vew irc style commands, such as '/distance front target' and it will be as easy as pie. '/msg ship thruster 5 level increase 15 percent'. '/turn left 90 degrees' or or '/tlf9d' for those of us with brains. you can make it like perl or something. or like assembler, so that retarded lusers cannot figure it out.

i dont want vendetta dumbed down to be some windows click'n'drool garbage. give me a command line interface.

in fact, do away with the graphics altogether. graphics are for losers. vendetta should only use stdin and stdout. think of the portability gains this will get you. and increased market share. imagine a beowulf cluster.

this will have the triple benefit. since only 'smart, intelligent people' will be able to figure out how to play, the level of dicourse on 100 will skyrocket to shakespearean levels. furthermore, 'smart, intelligent people' do not use exploits. also it will eliminate ganking, as 'smart, intelligent people' people do not 'gank'.

all this from switching to textmode! please implement this posthaste.

"Looks a bit lizardy or reptilian,"

Lizard/Reptile like is good :P

(Ananzi, if you want to play a text game leave VO and go find one.)

Wow... I never thought I'd see the day when genka was surpassed in troll-dom.

I'm struggling to understand what the troll is for. Was anyone suggesting there shouldn't be nice-looking stuff? Oh well.

I have to say the posting of this image is pure marketing genius in terms of getting the current fanbase to keep up their subscriptions. I instantly downloaded it, put it on my desktop, and commenced spending my time (a) daydreaming about flying one around and (b) trying to figure out how to fit more VO time into my schedule (gotta raise that TPG standing!).

Edit: Hehe "Iron Troll" that's golden.

First thing I thought when I saw the ship was that it reminded me somehow of a
Monitor lizard. So you are right on, Black Omega.

wylfing UI is more than just the 'way it looks'. its also the way it works! or doesnt work. and yes, many many people believe as i do, that GUIs are the end of civilization and so forth and so on.
