I did a quick search and found no mention of the above subject, if a thread already exist, it evaded me... Anywho, it needs to be stated that CCP simply dropped the ball on the new Min dessy model. Its simply THAT bad. Please CCP, have another go at it, do it for the children.

I have to admit the other new dessies look gorgeous, but the Minny dessie looks like two blocks stuck together (the mian body/hull).

That said I am looking forward to producing these new ships as Dessies are my business! I can see these being cheaper than the others just because it's the ugly duckling of the group, but time will tell. Either way always awesome to get new stuff - thanks CCP - love you long time Blink

Was anyone really expecting it to look good? You can only do so much with duct tape and rust.

I think it look fine, simple, fast and like a spear tip. As far as being the cheapest LOL. Now that they decided that it should be strictly better at everything the caldari one dose it will be fine, hell Ill have to fly it.....and i hate minnie ships but it is just the better missile boat in all ways so ya.

I wanted to paint my space ship red, but I couldn't find enough goats.

The art design is terrible, as is the model itself.

A shame really, especially considering how awesome the new Stabber/Vaga and Tempest models are.

Apparently the art department wasnt looking for comments regarding the minmatar dessy when there was a chance to actually change it

I made enough threads about it at the time and pretty much took the opinion of CCP to be, 'tough luck, this is what you get'

I'm resigned to the fact that they will press ahead and release it rather than 'wasting' the time already spent on the poor design by starting again.

Such a shame

So I guess instead of redoing the old ships to look better they're releasing new ships that look really bad Roll

What I've seen of the new Min destroyer suggests to me that it's built from similar design considerations as the Typhoon, a single, solid mass of hull with sensor arrays at the bow and engines at the stern. It lacks the outrigger of the 'phoon but beyond that...
It can't be called sleek of course but at least you're not going to be worrying about the top wingy bit falling off.

I don't mind the Amarrian vessel actually, but have to say the Caldari and Gal vessels are my favorite and will be making one my everyday run around. Not sure which if the two though.

The Amarr one just looks like a bulkier Coercer and the Minnie dessie looks like a big ol' space turd What?

Its perfect. Now we can all de-evolve and fling poo at each other.

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

Can't argue with sound logic, you may be correct, but...

The Gal and Cal dessies really feel as though they took design cues from their respective Tier 3 BCs.

Hadn't checked out the new Minnie destroyer until now.

I've never understood the minnie rust meme. There is no water in space. For that matter, no iron ships either.

Yeah, um... thanks? I was really concerned about that. I confess your search skills exceed my own, perhaps you could make a youtube video showing us how to better search the forums. Glad you managed to troll all my posts today and completely miss the point of this thread.

BTW, I used your very helpful link and read your opinions on the dessies. You praised the Min model and questioned the Gal... really?

ok i think the new min Destoryer is ugly as sin but i have tested fitting one on dual. with 7 rocket launchers and that ships is one mean rocket boat in terms of fire power and speed.

its ugly but it the movie title "the good the bad and the ugly" Good in your face fire power Bad as in bad tank unless you ASB it and the hull is damn Ugly.

Now as for the Rockets should get 20k on long range t2 rockets 13k range of the rage t2 rockets and well over 200 dps.
