Cool pics. Yeah, this would be perfect for the Mobile Command Vessel we were talking about in suggestions.

it looks bad-ass with the weapons

I didn't think it'd have that many turrets?

I thought this was a 2-seater or something closer to that.

When were those taken?

Sweeeet.

Where's mine?

Ten turrets. I'm not sure if those are any weapons or those "never miss" laser beams only.

Those turrets have a green hue, whilst the HAC turrets are prodominatly blue. For the moment, they're probobly really short range versions of the HAC lasers.

They seem to be the same as the cruiser laser thingy.

I'm the valky that's about to blow up the ship in some of those screenies <.<

I still love this pic from the day the Trident was accidentally introduced into the production server.

The weapons are totally preliminary. I don't know what John has in mind for ports/turrets. Spence took the shots on the test server, where there has been one Trident per convoy all this week.

how does that thing dock with the station? If at all....
Mar 04, 2006 CrazySpence link
from what i saw it spawns far away from the station and runs parallel to the station when the voy reaches the destination sector

the turrets loom like crap honestly. too many, i feel their should be one on the nose one on each engine top and bottom, it looks like a mini BSG kinda, especially with my hog flying around it heh

I was on the test server last night and the tridents I saw didnt have turrets...

I removed the turrets pending something less sucky. The not-undocking/docking behavior is a sort of proto-mooring. It will be cool when it's done, but this at least allows us to start playing with them without the docking bays being clogged and trident parts sticking out of the stations :)

Lol good to see the trident in game ^^ Was enjoyable escorting it and it definantly starts to add a sense of scale in vendetta.
Mar 04, 2006 yodaofborg link
Yay, the new trident looks sweet!

So errrm, whats the estimate to production?
Mar 04, 2006 vIsitor link
...and more importantly, the estimate until we can have tridents =P
Mar 04, 2006 mgl_mouser link
I want a price estimate!
Mar 04, 2006 Chikira link
Im gonna guess around 150 to 250k per ship ^^
Mar 04, 2006 Spellcast link
I hope its higher than that.

at least 300k, hopefully in the 500k-600k range.
