Oh, and pre-empting an ISD lock, this IS important enough to make new threads about until we get a response from CCP

The other ship design / redesigns look amazing, so i know your art department can do much better, they just dropped the ball / rushed this one a little.

I'd lock your thread because it's unhelpful and uninformative, not just because you're whinging. Also for the double post.

How is it any of those?

If you have browsed any of the recent posts about the new destroyers the vast majority of opinion is the same as what i say above.

If i have missed a dev reply regarding this then i apologise, but until then this REALLY needs highlighting until we know its beign dealt with.

If they dont change the proposed ship model in the coming two months, then we are stuck with it.

Of all the things that are wrong with EVE and you chose this to take a stand on?

You must really hate that ship.

The only thing that dissapoints me about the new Minmatar destroyer is that there isn't a 1400mm howitzer stuck out of the turret.

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

Don't worry skipper, they already have the content planned out for their next summer vacations. Lots more slippery slides, and a lot more lifeguards, so they can keep drinking next to the pool.

As you are already aware, the Art Team has not requested any feedback just yet as the new models are only a Work In Progress. CCP Goliath has already informed you of this fact in the thread on the Test Server Feedback forum.

Yeah, well they dont have to 'ask' for feedback, the designs were leaked/found and its only natural that the players would give their opinion on them. For the majority of the designs, its overwhelmingly positive feedback, except not for the Minmatar design.

Given the way art works around here, once we have something, it stays like that for years. They are being released in two months, so please forgive me for being a little pushy about it.

I dont want to be 'that guy' who doesnt stop postign abotu it on the forums, but its got to be done.

It would be nice of somebody who is involved in the art process to say something about it, maybe give us a clue as to how the art department feels about it.

It would put many minds at ease

It is completely understandable that people want to have their say, and that is exactly what the forums are for. As Goliath has said, at the moment the designs are still a work in progress, so when the time comes the Art Department will start looking for feedback on their work.

In the meantime there are already threads discussing the new ship designs (loving the new look Tempest and Vagabond myself) so it might be best to keep all the ideas and proposals in one place. The thread I linked, one you have posted in yourself, already has a good discussion going about the possible new design of the second Minmatar Destroyer; perhaps continuing to post in there, where the Art team will be much more likely to see it than here on GD, would be your best course of action.

You all seem to be a little confused as to whether the art department is reading the forums or not

The only way to know would be if they actually replied in a thread.

Till then i shall continue to post in GD

As I said, WHEN they start requesting feedback, which they are not doing at the moment. In the meantime there is already a thread active about this particular subject and rather than filling every forum with threads about it, it would be best to keep it in one place. On that note I will kindly direct you to the thread in question, and lock this one.

New Minnie destroyer.
