Enterprise class Liberty Carrier - Denelo - 04-26-2010

One word:
Spyglass.
Try flying one through all the fields from its purchase location to New York, using no gates.
Then it'll be a concern.
That said, it's really not much of a problem with the anti-bump thing active.
Also, please, please, whatever you do, do not submit another one of Xing's... creations. The current disaster of a Carrier we have is his.

Three words:
Lousy flat textures.

When I read the title I thought the Enterprise Liner was going to be turned into a carrier.

Well I guess that's just one more reason the hackers shouldn't have the Spyglass in the first place. Large capital ships aren't exactly made for asteroid fields - my best representation of this suggestion would be a certain scene from Star Wars...
I might have some interesting breaking news for the carrier, later tonight.

Whoever said I was talking about the Hackers?
Aside from that, it's one of the few unlawful capital ships that actually has a decent reason to exist. One deeply rooted in the history of at least one major faction, I might add. Don't derail other random threads with snide remarks that other peoples' stuff should be taken away from them and they get shafted because you don't think they should have them.
My point was that the bumping thing really isn't that big a deal, especially considering the exact shape of this and the fact that, unlike the Spyglass, it really doesn't go in fields much. If we can handle the Spyglass in asteroids all the time, people can handle this ship that hardly ever goes in them just fine.
Now I'd kindly request you stop derailing the topic. If you have a legitimate point you want to make against the Spyglass other than the fact that it happens to be your enemies' most powerful (and rarely-seen) ship, make a separate topic.

There's nothing cannon with the Spyglass. The only story behind it was that it was "somehow stolen from the Liberty shipyards", which is a highly ridiculous idea and implies that the Liberty Navy is a highly incompetent organization that let its top of the line vessels get stolen - just like that. A bit as if the US Navy get hijacked an air craft carrier. But worse. And then they tried to hide it in a cave.
Now my point wasn't exactly to debate on whether or not hacker should have the Spyglass or not - it merely is a result of people that keeps bringing the Spyglass as a rather poor example against the idea of "long ships".
My point stays that big ships aren't made to go in asteroid fields, and that isn't my concern. But if your -supposed- point is that it isn't a concern, then why point it out at all? Is it because you are a loyalist hacker that sees in my post an attack against your beloved faction? Because I, don't give a peanut about it.

Looks far too long to me, can we see a comparison next to the Dread please?
I mean, it looks really, really long... olololol Long... xD

Look for it in the first page, link at the bottom of my post.

A carrier should certainly be longer and wider but this one is a bit too much.
I think the length should still be reduced to around 1.5-1.7 times the length of Lib Dred. The width is fine.
Texture is ok. As everybody said if it were a bit more brighter then it would have been better.
Overall the ship is better than other models posted here and with some more improvements it should be considered for inclusion in the mod.
