...have ruined the golem, I mean really it looks god awful! It looks like a hammerhead shark that got its hands on some red bull while watching some macross battle scene for the kicks (cartoon violents beware)!

Actually CCP make the golems bastion mode transform like the one in the link above when it started shooting all the guns at that be giant dude and I'll be happy Big smile

But seriously please fix at least the 'head' part... it looks bad.

_**Noob **_isn't really a status, it's the online equivalent of a 5-year old calling you a poopy fart head.

At least it's consistent with Caldari Ships.
The Bantam looks like a dog humping a vacuum cleaner.
The Moa looks like a de-feathered chicken.
The Osprey looks like a dead chicken.

Dear God why ... don't you post this in the correct forum and thread? I'm sure the artists are scouring all the other forums and threads looking for feedback.

You know what I like? How the video you linked is 53 seconds long but has a ~6 min advertisement that I can't skip. That was awesome.

But yeah, you are over reacting, that new model looks pretty nice. It looks a lot less awful that the regular Raven model does, certainly.

Just wanted to put out a FYI that this is not the final version you are seeing that you linked in the video, and nothing you might see on the Singularity test server ever is. It's a test server, with many disclaimers telling you that this isn't the final quality of the expansion that you should expect. So when you see test server stuff, please bear that in mind.

If you have any questions or thoughts or feedback regarding Singularity stuff, please post it over on the Test Server Feedback forum page.

Well, for one thing which is easy to miss is that the Golem in the video there has no lights coming from it. Which really makes it look "flat" and uninteresting. So over the next few updates of Singularity players will see it update also.

Yeah yeah we know that the Golem's textures are not final.. Except that the problem does not only lies in textures, but also in it's very shape.

I also note that despite trying to ease the pain, you never confirmed that another, different, version of the Golem, or better, another 3D model, would be in preparation.

I hope I'm wrong, but then why not simply saying it clearly ? Cry


Edit : Oh and regarding your last post, I'm pretty sure that there is only so much lights can do...

Lol, funny.

Somehow I think the hammerhead part is one of the cool things about the nu golem.

But those wings... o_O

The word horrible comes to mind, but the it's not entirely true. It's more like they don't belong there anymore. The heady thingy looks somehow modern while the rest looks like someone desperately wanted to keep the old 3d model but still make a new one at the same time. Straight

EDIT: Oh well, my memory again.... In the Video it actually looks better than in my memory of the pictures I saw a few days ago... Brains are weird. Ugh

Stupidity should be a bannable offense.

Fighting back is more fun than not.

well, given that caldari ships tend to have rather .. unintuitive .. shapes, the new golem fits right in. :P

the platypus-part makes it quite distinct from the raven and gave the thing already a lovely nickname.
whats not to like ^^

I thought it was supposed to be Golem not Gollum.

The Raven model is like a sleek bird of doom.

This is like some kind of Space Turducken.

I usually try to avoid dumping on someone else's artistic vision but this shape gives me a strong negative visceral reaction on the server.

C'mon CCP.

If we are going to have actual "morphing models", where the hell is Death Blossom?

You know of what I write about.

Is there not enough epic in this game that we are denied Death Blossom as the final cherry on the cake?

I dont think its half bad.

And Im pretty sure most people will realise that when they get all their pretty lights back.

[I for one love pretty lights, especially the blinky kind, oh the ships Ive lost from being halucinated by blinky lights for far too long]

Oh?Uh.... what was I saying again?

Oh right! Im going to love flying those new interceptors!
