These would be a good reason for having to wait another month.
Out of curiosity, how long do you think each one of those line items would take in terms of man hours?
A couple of days max. Because at this point I'm just sick and tired of waiting, and really don't give a **** anymore. Here look I'll demonstrate:
"New turret types":
Minmatar small turret:
Take three small missile turrets and scale them down in size. Angle them upward. Attach them to the top of one turret stand. Take the mass driver projectile animation bend the arc on the projectile flight path and extend the flight time. Paint the whole thing brownish red. Specs are eyeballed, best ballpark. The community can play test it for us. Simple numerical modifications can be made in the following several days after release.
BLAM!!!! Minmatar small artillery turret.
Minmatar large turret:
Take the large missile turret and angle the turret upward. Take the animation from the massdriver projectile and scale up the size a little. Do the same as above with the projectile flight path. Paint the thing redish brown. Eyeballed stats.
BLAM!!!!-áMinmatar large artillery turret.
Amarr small turret:
Combine a blaster turret and the animation from the laser rifle. Scale the laser animation up in size a bit. Paint the whole thing gold. Eyeballed stats.
BLAM!!!! Amarr laser turret.
Amarr large turret:
Same as above.
BLAM!!!! Done.
"A respec for vehicle users":
We've already seen how this works. Start immediately.
BLAM!!!! Done.
"Dropship cloaking":
Module is activated dropship animation is removed. Nothing fancy just gone. Specs are eyeballed.
BLAM!!!! Dropship cloaking. Done!
"A new vehicle type":
Speeder:
Take the animation from the LAV. Split the animation down the center. Cut roughly one meter from the center side of each half. Reattach both halves. Take the animation, and, -áfrom front to rear end, squish the animation together slightly (should only have two wheels after it is done). Stats are eyeballed.
BLAM!!!! Speeders.
Race variants:
Take the Gallente stuff (tanks, LAVs, speeders) and paint it gold. All stats are eyeballed for community testing. Stats are eyeballed.
BLAM!!!! Amarr suff.
Take the Caldari stuff and paint it redish brown. Copy and past some of the art from the Minmatar medium frame dropsuit (like canisters and all that other crap) and slap that stuff onto the Cal vehicles.-áAll stats are eyeballed for community testing. Stats are eyeballed.
BLAM!!!! Minmatar stuff.
BLAM!!!! Done!!!! |
