Moving Ship Turrets

February 10, 2008 9:03:47 PM from Sins of a Solar Empire ForumsSins of a Solar Empire Forums
First i would like to say that the game is very solid and so far been great fun.

Something i want to suggest is that the turrets of ships need some moving range, i mean projectiles coming out a 45% angle to the guns facing isnt very eye catching in my book.

It's not going to happen in the forseeable future. There's been a lot of talk about this back in beta, and basically it comes down to too much time/resource investment for little gain. All the ship meshes would have to be redone, and the majority of the time you're just not zoomed in all the way to see it, anyway.

I'm not saying tracking turrets isn't cool, but it's pretty definite that it's not going to happen so pushing the issue is rather fruitless

IF there was an incentive to actually zoom in and watch a fight, I think I would. I'm sorry to drag Homeworld into this again, it's horribly over-used now, but there, watching a battle was totally wicked! Turrets tracking and so on, it was action!
