Does anyone still ever think about that horrible day when the EVE community lost our old sexy looking Helios model: http://eve-files.com/dl/249521

and had it replaced with a Quasimoto looking model.Sad
June 11, 2008 RIP, I still remember you pretty Helios...

So it was a Keres? That with the new V3'd graphis, and the possibility of eventually buying the Creodron scheme you'll have it back..?

took me by surprised when they did it. I had been on a bit of a forced brake (no internet or something) and came back after a patch and got in to the Helios and found its hull had changed...I was a bit confused.

Sorry but file “forumsig.GIF” is currently unavailable please come back later…… like in a year or so.

That's too bad! As I think the Brutix has a very mean look to it, thus making it's name quite fitting.Smile
The Imicus model to me, looks like an accident nobody wants to talk about.Lol

KILL HER WITH FIRE.

Seriously, though. I love the Brutix's look. It's awesome.

The V3'd Helios is one of the few T2 frigates that didn't receive any sort of added doodads (model still looks exactly like the Imicus on Sisi). However the new skin and Credodon colors are very nice and both the Helios and the Imicus look a great deal better now.

But if you hate it before you will probably still hate it. They changed the model because it was the only T2 covops that didn't look like its T1scanning counterpart.

The new Keres looks amazing with its new V3 skin. Especially comparing it to that picture posted above. Eve has come a long way.

I would be more inclined to fly a helios if they still looked like that,

Imicus/new helios model is butt ugly.

Truthfully I'm embarrassed to un-dock in it. That's how ugly it is.Cry

this is the first time I see a helios, played since 2006.

Why do I happen not to care about gallente ships? In 2008 I was shocked to see a rupture... omg, moa is not the only one I thought.

This post sums up why the 'best' work with DCM inc.
