Capital Armor Idea, - Aes_Sidhe - 07-13-2010
Ok Guys I was Thinking how to get a little bit more realism to Capital Armor mounting...
Right now every Cap armor doesn't matter with Ships is Installed take the same amount of cargo space...
Is a Little bit Unrealistic just looking on comparison of size...
Corvo for exaple is much smaller than Rheinland Battleship
What if is Instead of same amount of cargo ...we can do percentage of cargo?
For example Cap MK I hive you Hull Multiplier x2.1 let it "eat" 21% of your cargo Space..
Cap VIII have Multiplier x4 let is Eat 40% of Your Cargo...
That way in Corvo for example your amount of cargo taken by Armor Upgrade gonna be wary from 126-240
But The same upgrades in Rheinland Battleship gonna be vary from 420 - 800 cargo Units what have sense because this is biger ship and need more materials to upgrade more hull to make in tougher
I don't Know that of course if That can be done...I don't have idea about game mechanics... but..
What You think Community and Developers ??

Then you can put a Cap8 on a Starflier : ))

Well, I kind of agree and disagree.
Its somehow true that it would be more ''balanced''
But look, I will take the example of the bounty hunter bottle nose mini gun boat.
Right now the biggest you can mount is the Cap 4 ( I think) , If it was only a percentage, that would mean that they could get the higher upgrades,
How I interpret your opinion is that bigger vessels can support ( at least ) greater ''massive'' armor or whatever. It is interesting to note that armor upgrade aren't bigger for sure, if you read the descriptions of them, you can find out that it is mainly hight technology material with advanced process.

Nyx with Cap 8. I totally agree.
That aside, Armour Upgrades occupy units of cargo rather than percentage due to balance.It would be hard to work with.
However, it shouldn't be so hard to do technical wise(=dev wise).

Is a Capital Armour right ??/ restrict it to Capital Ship Cruiser and Up... You cant Mount battleships Shield on fighter.. mechanics of the game dont let do it... so make it non mountable on non capital ships.....
Putting Capital Armour on Transport Just because i have enough cargo is Stupid IMO too now i You wanna have Whale with CAP VIII You loosing 300 cargo big deal.. with this solution you gonna loose 2000.. If you'll be able to Mount it...
