Hyena; Why dont you just make it smaller? - Hone - 09-16-2012
Its as big as a VHF, and less powerful than some other light fighters. Why not just make it smaller, and count that as one of the upgrades done when turning the bloodhound into a Mk2?
Also it should be they greyhound, Greyhounds are the fastest. And the greyhound should be called the Staghound, while the Werewolf is called the Boarhound. Stick with the hound theme guys!

If you want Rog/Mol ship to be large and clumsy, dont resize the hyena. Buff its stats, give it more weps, and make it into a Heavy VHF. Then make the Werewolf into a proper SHF, so we dont have a Heavy VHF and a light SHF overlapping each other, and resize the Greyhound turning it into a LF.

The model is vanilla and by itself useless, it was meant to be the easiest enemy ship in the first missions in SP.
It just need other model while the mk1 ship stays. Vanilla ship models are not subject of model change as far as I know.

Im not sayin you should change the vanilla model, Im saying just take that vanilla model, reduce its size, and have that as the new model for the MK2 LF. Itd be easy!

I approve. Hyena looks great but plain useless, it's a razor bait and should really be resized, the bloodhound may be left as it is.

So you are saying to change the vanilla Model after all, reducing its size.:rolleyes:
I am not quire aware if this is even possible because different models are made in different programs, some are shrinkable some not, also as far as I know Devs does not want/can to change the vanilla models as models.
Even if you make it 50% smaller it still would be bad ship in PvP and unsuitable for LF because of its easy to snac/MR/hit/whatever profile on turning, if you dig around the forum you would find this:

The ship could easy be SHF with its size.
The model just wont work for PvP because freelancer is made for ships with small vertical profiles.

So resize it LOADS then!

Well, that's how Rogue/Molly ships were supposed to be; large and clumsy.
And ye, that comparison picture really speaks of itself.

There is no such thing as a "heavy shf"... the Werewolf is a proper SHF, unless you want Spatial stats on a ship that is less than half of the Spatial size? That won't happen. As to the Hyena... it should just become an HF since that's what the size suggests.

No, I want something more like Recycler or Mjolnir stats.
