Its hard to get the New Potato model into the system before it sprouts.





Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

Got really excited when I saw this but 2 patches later its nowhere to be seen.

I hope it had an accident and died in a fire. The only way you can improve the current dominix model is by giving it a CreoDron paint job (like the ishkur got). 'Cause powder-blue rules.

Hopefully, the redesign will make a return, I may actually consider buying it if it gets the new look =)

Wasn't there some major freakout with everybody flapping their hands screaming "don't touch it!!"?


They could announce a change to the golden magnate which is no longer in game and some people would ***** about it because they somehow prefer old skin on a unobtainable ship over the new design for the still unobtainable ship...

Maybe this thread could catch the eye of a lurking Dev. Would love to know the answer to this.

You Miners think you have it so damn tough.  When I first started playing we didnt even have mining lasers.  You had to fly close to an asteroid.....pop a hatch and gnaw at it with your teeth.   - Bitter Vet

I, too, have been wondering what's taking so long. Seeing the concept art made me train Gallente Battleship V, and now I'm just waiting for the new model before actually flying the thing.

Exactly!
Though I am explorer, and my ship of choice is the Stratios, I would like an awesome Drone Battleship, and the Dominix fits the bill, however, with its' currently design I cannot make myself fly it.

Not totally sure how the New Graphics would make it stronger. Maybe a little more attractive than what it is though.

They are still working out whether an awesome looking Dominix would be OP or not.

It can take many months for them to get the thing from concept to reality, especially when they have to redo textures, make sure they fit the model correctly, and then make sure that the model doesn't have any weird and wonderful spots where the geometry is screwed up so that a missile looks like it misses but passes through the 2.5m hole into the warp drive..


Yeah right, for ccp maybe. CiG would have finished the Domi redesign in less than a week.

Look how long it took ccp to render the racial station interiors for Incarna. They had to pull artists off another game to do it.

Agree. Less potatoish now and more in line with Vexor hull. Better, but still not good, the same as mostly all Gallente ships. They look like frozen pukes, strange butt plugs and potatoes.

I got excited reading your post until I clicked on the link and saw that it still looks like a regular Dominix.

Get yourself to a qualified optician asap.

I hope you don't drive . . .

Yeah I seem to remember monument shooting level rage when it was first hinted they may remodel it.

I don't actually know what happened to them.


What's wrong with the Atron? I think it looks awesome as it is... and I don't even fly Gallente xD
