THEN: "omg so fugly chicken-with-a-briefcase, CCP please make it symmetrical bla bla bla "
NOW: "omg so not Moa, why so symmetrical, I miss the chicken-with-a-briefcase waaaa"

Simple testimony that whatever CCP does, the players will not be satisfied. "devs-going-I-give-up.gif"

Me personally I'm looking at the new Moa and i'm like *fap* *fap* *fap* *fap*

That's the most beautiful duck with a broken neck I've ever seen.

The sleek and competent design of the new Moa remind of a Volkswagen Golf. A silver VW Golf. With a tow hook.

Who wouldn't be excited about a new Golf, eh?

That's like saying "XP is so different from Windows 3.1, kinda sad."


Personally I like CLI.

Anyways, i mean in that it shares few characteristics with its predecessor.

nah, the new ship is ok. they finally went and fixed the moa's ugliness.

it's just... it's like the end of an era, if you catch the drift. The ship was so ugly, many jokes were made around it and now that the ugliness is gone.. it's just not the same thing.

Went from wonky looking Godzilla ship to goofy looking space chicken. EVE already had enough spacechickens IMHO.

GilaSecunda was awesome. Canaris rocks those drones like a boss. That said the Guristas rebalance will do more to kill that than the new model will.

Still I think the new Gila with its new bonuses will be interesting as hell to fly.

Maybe it would look less bottom heavy if the turret mount bit was at the front of the wings instead of the middle sides. It'd look like a trident from top then.

Finally.

One less spaceship that doesn't look like anything even remotely resembling a spaceship.

For a long time, I've refrained from training Caldari cruiser V simply because the Moa was so incredibly mind numbingly ugly.

The thought of even being capable of flying something like the Eagle was giving me the creeps and I felt learning a long skill for just one ship I would ever potentially fly wasn't worth it.

Well, this is now in the past. Time to fly Caldari again. Lol

It's certainly an improvement... whether it's actually nice is something else entirely.

It's just more financially viable for me.

When I recover my morale, I'll wander over to Jita and shoot the monument while flying a Moa. *sniffle* Because it's the last we'll see of the "so fugly it's beautiful in the same way that a fly regurgitating onto its food to digest it before lapping it back up is beautiful in Nature's special way" Moa that we've come to love/hate over the years. *sob*

/I need a hug





I like it.

Now if they can just do something about the Imicus I'll stop hallucinating little elves that tell me to set fire to things every time I see one.

To be fair, the Gallente Federation build the Imicus to make enemy crews projectile vomit every time they see one. A task the Imicius is perfectly suited for.
