The V3 shaders, Minmatar wingy bits from TFI and Vaga gone too!

So, I'm kinda sadfaced. The Sansha ships looked chrome and scary and now they are green and bleh. The Amarr V3 in my opinion are too dark and makes them appear less....whats the word...godly as they used to? And now in SiSi the Minmatar are discovering polish and rust removal.

Here's some screenshots of the minmatar ships:

Amarrs Absolution and Retribution gleaming red and gold, I miss it. :(

I think at this rate, EVE's graphics are going to look like something out of Borderlands.

In rust we trust? Forget about it.

Well, that's my two cents. What do you guys think? Im sadface.Sad

The Retri and abso look about five times better than they used to in my opinion.

As for those pics, can't tell much from them.

I'm confused as to why Minmatar ships are now pristine and gleaming but Amarr ships look like they've been dipped in tar.

Art team, what are you doing with your sharders?

It was stated somewhere on this forum in one of the responses from ART department, that they will brighten (or better balance) the shader in next V3 release (may mean this month with minmatar or in winter expansion, dunno).

Also you know that ship's shading, colors, textures looks beter in game than in preview window or in station right?

CCP really please dont use Upgraded, Limited, Experimental and Prototype in item names. It sounds like the item is actually worse than basic meta 1 item. Use Calibrated, Enhanced, Optimized and Upgraded. Its really easy to understand that the item is better than meta 1 and its also in alphabetic order.

I think the Amarr ships atleast are just way better now with the new V3. They fit much more the dark golden feel that they are supposed to have now. That is what I think atleast. As for the minmatar ships, I think that they fit much better the darker brown color that the rookie ship and the Tornado had before the V3.
