DUST Search - Missing Vehicles....

Amarr and Minmatar Vehicles are long overdue and I've been pondering what could possibly be the hold up.

The immediate thought that pops to mind is the lack of art assets for them, so I started thinking about them. Why not utilize existing art assets from Eve? Obviously they'd need to be tweaked a little, but they'd give a good base.

Amarr
MCC: Abaddon
Dropship: Harbringer
HAV: Golden Madrugar reskin
LAV: Golden Methana reskin (with a popemobile feel to it)

Minmatar
MCC: Nidhoggur
Dropship: Thrasher
HAV: Rusty Gunloggi reskin
LAV: Rusty Saga reskin (with a dunebuggy feel to it)

The ADS's would be essentially the same as the DS's only with the front turret.

All that would be left then would be the turrets. Artillery/Autocannon and Beam/Pulse lasers would be the obvious choices for obvious reasons. 40mm and 250mm for the Artillery, 12.7mm and 150mm for the Autocannon. I wouldn't know where to start with what could be used by the Amarr outside of Beam/Pulse lasers.

Comments? Questions? Suggestions?

It looks like a cross between the Dragoon and the Harbinger. Downside is increased area to hit and possible obstruction of the turret field of view. Hard to say without a more detailed model. I hope CCP posts more on these in the near future, it's LONG overdue. Unfortunately, I suspect we'll have to wait until fanfest at the earliest. Best PvE idea ever!

IDK, I <3 Thrashers (probably my favorite ship in Eve aside from Minmatar Transport Ships), I really wish the DS model was more akin to the Thrashers than it is. I also think it would be awesome to see a flight of them pouring forth from a baby-niddy just over the battlefield.

I see how each race having all their suits, modules , weapons , vehicles and so on is nice but it really just doesn't change the game to me. Unless we have more of that MMO side then you can say that the game has actually changed. Don't make it easy for them, take a few down with you.

Which seems to be taking along time, in fact too long. Taking a look at what's happened between last years fan fest and now it's still the same lobby shooter just different stats. And still many things have to balanced no doubt after 1.8 with the new suits, and even longer with more weapons , I don't know about you but I'm here for that link between Dust 514 and EVE not another lobby shooter.
