I have to say new tempest looks ugly.
Old tempest model has far more detail put into it, new one is just too plastic, also turrets are placed incorrectly on vargur.

Don't quote me on this, but I'm pretty sure the new Tempest does not yet have a texture skin, it's just a Minmatar-bronze plain model.

Turret placements are off on all tempest models i tryed the fleet and the std. tempest plus i dont think they have finshed the model or the textures or the v3 shader yet.

But over all i like the remodel idea will hold my judgement untill they refine it more. But its not done yet.

Looked like a skin to me. Like the model generally but the lower thruster alignment is stupid. Shame Sad

This is vargur:

So yes, it does have a texture.

I'll show you what I mean:

Vargur model and texture/skin is great and ship looks epic

Fleet Tempest looks fantastic as per Vargur (I think I prefer this texture but don't tell the anti-cammo crowd!)

Positioning of lower thrusters is poor and would look so much better if centered on the vertical axis as with the other thrusters.

Overall a massive improvement but please look at those thrusters.

O_o is it just me or is there a new Republic Fleet color set? Current one is washed-out. That is pretty vibrant.

Could you post an image of a Fleet Stabber or Firetail for comparison?

RF Firetail looks the same to me.

Yep, those two look the same. Odd the Fleet Tempest's greens are so vibrant.

Locking this as, as I said in my original post about Duality, we are only accepting feedback for features that are in a testable state.
