Bob, let's be very clear, they are NOT "adding Minmatar and Amarr vehicles".

If you want to get excited about this, great, but don't make it more than what it is.

Sometimes I wonder if everyone here is on CCP's payroll but me.

You're right, they're adding variants of Caldari and Gallente vehicles that will perform exactly as an Amarr and Minmatar vehicle would perform, have Amarr and Minmatar slot layouts, Amarr and Minmatar base stats, have the color of an Amarr and Minmatar vehicle, and be named in a fashion that is Amarr and Minmatar. However, because the actual shape of the HAV is not different, they are most definitely nothing like Amarr and Minmatar vehicles would be. Roll

Glad you are happy with it then.

Expect little, get little.

I simply call it like I see it.

Proof that indeed despite all rationality, some people would prefer to have nothing over something. Big smile

They tend to always do things half assed, and from reading some of these posts, it's clear why. The players don't demand any better. Why do so many two year old bugs persist? Because the players accept it as "oh, it's just CCP". The 2d Warbarge was only as good as it had to be to get by. Everyone just accepts it. Look, I don't really care that much anymore. I play DUST to have a little fun. If everyone really believe we are getting "new" vehicles, then I think that is wonderful.

At thing point I genuinely don't think anyone cares too much about these continuing shenanigans and really can't be bothered getting emotionally invested. Am I disappointed there are no unique Racial AM/MIN hulls? Yes more than I'll ever let on, being one of the loudest voices for getting these in the game, but am I willing to look a gift horse in the mouth? Nope.

CCPs pride got us "walking in stations" promises and 'Legion', with their subsequent riots. The only reason theyre not 'new' for you is cause the non-existing dust art department hssnt cranked out the new models and animations. You must be so disappointed you get a raise at work, expecting a promotion and a company car instead. Does it suck? Yes. Are we mad? Yeeeuuup Do we understand this is all the can literally do for this situation at this point in time? I do. Do people like you cause me to drink? ...hic I have cows that show more intelligence than some of you.

Sometimes I wonder if everyone here is on CCP's payroll but me. Technically they are not adding more vehicles, but they are adding "placeholders" for those missing racial vehicles using Gallente/Caldari HAV models but with stats intended for the Minmatar/Amarr HAV models. This is primarily because CCP Rattati doesn't have either the time or manpower available to give us the actual models. EDIT: I do not like this any more than you or CEOPyrex do in regards to lazy game design, but I'm a realist and I understand that we can't have what we dreamed of due to limited resources that are likely beyond CCP Rattati's control.

It caused Dust to be extremely delayed and nearly killed Dust at its infancy. Believe me. 2nd Point - They did back in 2011. It went to their heads which resulted in Incarna and the Jita Riots. 3rd Point - That much is true. 4th Point - Also true. We should not always be accepting half-assed stuff being added and keep pressing CCP to do better. But again, I have to be a realist here. Given Rattati's limited resources, do you honestly believe we would be getting something better in the immediate future? 5th Point - Bad legacy code which is beyond Rattati's control. I don't blame Rattati or his team for this. I blame the previous team for this. 6th Point - I agree. But unless you can somehow convince CEO Hilmar to devote maybe an extra dev or two towards expanding the warbarge into something worthwhile, I don't see the 2D warbarge becoming anything more than 2D. 7th Point - ok? 8th Point - I hope that's not what everyone thinks. I don't generally count these as new vehicles as they are just placeholders. But beggars can't be choosers I guess. 9th Point - Agreed.
