Firbolg Fighter drone front view/ dashboard view

[eno88]

0:20 - badass

[w00tbeerisgood]

thats pretty cool

[ertyqwer]

The dashboards were badass until Apocrypha, in which they fucked up all the graphics and most of the effects ;_;

[RazgrisFloob]

I refuse to belive that that thing is 5km3 in size.

[Mangobrock]

It's not, 1k/m3 is 1,000,000,000 m3. learn volume. it just has to be 50mx10mx10m =5000m3

[DeoxysDNA]

How many of those can you put in a Nyx mothership?

[DrakonFeau87]

That would be 50 fighters

[DeoxysDNA]

How many can you have all out at once? I believe it's called the bandwidth?

[Edgecrusherdk]

20 with gallente carrier 5 since its 5 basic and 3 per lvl of gallente carrier skill

[DeoxysDNA]

Ah I see. Is it a powerful ship? Like do the carriers do a lot of damage with the fighters if skilled correctly?

[Helge129]

Yup. A battleship won't hold out against a carrier for long, and even less against a mommy.

[dextra23]

just for comparison: a fighter is frigate sized and one single fighter deals out the damage of a cruiser.

[AsianManZan]

Yeah, Thanatos vs a lone Apocolypse? Me in the thanny wins of course...

[Helge129]

It depends, really. I saw an Apoc kill a Thanny, simply because the Thanny pilot was too shitily skilled. And had no fighters *facedesk*

[DeathTripp666]

a MoM is not as good as people think there just a huge waste of ISK IMO

[DeoxysDNA]

Maybe you just don't know how to fit it correctly lol

[PoorYurik]

Holy shit that's amazing, even their dashboard is animated.

[hancock875]

cant't you put a fighter drone in a dominix

300 drone bay the firblog takes about this much space 25 am i wrong?

[Michael10091988]

while the fighters only use 25mbit bandwith they are 12000m3 big per fighter

[R4Akai]

looks hot...

[zallo002]

you can add fighters to a megathron?

[ToxicWaves]

YOU can`t ;)

[Helge129]

The Megathron can't, the pilot of a MS or Carrier with drones in the bay, and if he is in your fleet, can.

[Hawkcelpa]

no but Carriers can assing them to your Mega and u could control them like your own

[TheGimpMaster01]

how do you zoom while in that camera mode w/o the UI? i know you hit Ctrl + F9 to remove the UI, but zooming/telescoping, that was neat. nice video, lol, it makes me want to get my hands on some fighters.

[lusulpher]

Drag the mouse holding differnt buttons to zoom and rotate.

And this is sexy, but Trinity version is more detailed. 4.5/5

[kinghunter11]

yer oh btw nice drones there what 15 maby 16 mill each

[kinghunter11]

ive been playing eve for a while with my one player being able to fly battlecruiser class ships for all reaces but what gets me is is there a crew on the ships or is it just me in my pod

[ToxicWaves]

there's a huge crew that's making things work

[jordanparrott]

@ToxicWaves you dont know what you are talking about... the only living being in the ship is you in your pod. read a little before you comment

[Drgonzo11111]

@jordanparrott Maybe not

[Drgonzo11111]

@jordanparrott Maybe not

[pupip55]

@ToxicWaves no its just your pod

[nephilum1]

yea their are thousnads of crew members on your ship...they just come with the ship when u purchase it and they dont really talk much with the captain of their ship, in fact in the EVE universe some crew members dont even know their captains name

[tomank101]

If that's the case, what is the point of capsules?

[nephilum1]

it gives the captain a much more vivid awareness of whats going on around him and can react quickly to threats. he becomes the ship in a sence, he can feel and hear everything going on around him/her the crew are their to provide maintinence and whatnot

[tomank101]

Ah yeah I suppose. It just seems that with that amount of control he could activate automatic repairing stuff but never mind. Thanks

[michael36620]

Also, all crew members aside from the captain(That is, you) are disposable.

The capsule is pretty much life insurance. even if you die, you just wake up happy in some distant station.

[thrash77581]

There are crews in all ships except most frigates.

[Zachariah109]

well cloning technology is around why not have clones of yourself piloting everything? i mean you can always trust yourself? can't you?

[ToxicWaves]

if only it would be that easy.... :)

[Zachariah109]

sounds suspicious, why not just have mind clones, that have your thoughts transferred over, we obviously NEED HUGE bandwidth to run the drones, and each ships AI can Send your conciseness to a station relay via subspace, so we have the technologies..

have them Like Drone Borg you's :)

or like cylon raiders!!! part Organic/part mechanical!

makes sense but i like the bandwidth idea, it makes most sense..

[Shinoter187]

EVE is so much fun cept when it comes to makin isk cuz it takes so long for me

[lonewolf2356]

looks a lil like a brutix

[RussellsParadox]

...why do they have dashboards if there's nobody in them?

[vdub2002]

they are piloted by ppl

[ToxicWaves]

Actually there is, there's a little robot to the back of the dashboard in every fighter drone :)

[vdub2002]

nope, piloted by 'live humans', each ship in eve really has crew, and the pod pilots (us) are gods that they worship, the other drones on the other hand are robots.

[mazack00]

There needs to be a space flight simulator made for drone piloting.

Nice video capture.

[ToxicWaves]

Indeed! thanks :)

[Varaxfire]

i want to fly one :P

[ToxicWaves]

Don't we all? :)

[Syncopat1oN]

They look similar to the vanships from Last Exile (which was pretty awesome)

[evnnns]

fanged monstrosities...with sad little eyes hehe how cute. i love it.

[ToxicWaves]

Indeed :)

[Gewels8787]

cool!
