I find it awesome that ship contest yielded so much good designs it was huge.

I still would like original Tornado / Talos designs to be imported to game,changes are not big but still...

Please give the Gurista and Serpentis pirate ships unique designs, they look so boring and unimaginative compared to the others.

You hate EVE universe, don't you?
If not, then why you proposing to redesign beautiful ships into tasteless generic garbage, currently present in any generic "game pretending to be about spaceships"?

90% of eve agrees the moa needs a redesign.

I don't want every ship to be symmetrical, but the moa is ridiculous. If you want the moa to remain the same, then so be it, but at least make the onyx and eagle look fairly different from the moa in that they dont look like a dying animal.

Cerberus is a recolored caracal. I don't see the problem with spiffing it up.

Also, those are far from generic.

Why would you want redesigned ship that is simple rip-off from Caldari Fighter bomber Mantis?
And, yes, you can find those "fighter" designs in almost any "space simulator" that was released in last 20 years or so.

It is kind of embarrassing that ccp cant come up with different designs for each ship but just rip off the design from one ship to another and just change specs and so forth.


We are starting to do that for every ship redesign.




Its understandable to have similar looking hulls, however reskins just seem lazy to new players who want to fly cool stuff, not stuff that just works well. Thanks for letting us know people are on top of that.

By similar hulls, I mean the merlin->hookbill. They are structurally similar in a cool way. Tempest -> vargur is a pretty good example too.

It would be nice if navy ships had a bit of variation as well, albeit less than the T2 stuff.

So glad CCP used art resources on monocles and mini-skirts. They added so much to the graphics I see when shooting space ships.

If you can fill your lame online store with barbie garbage, you can handle replacing the cop-out reskins.

Crime, it is not a "career", it is a lifestyle.

wait, so because one of them is similar to a fighter jet, it means both of them are generic?

also, I indeed would prefer something that looks nice but has a design that takes from real life vessels/vehicles (oh look, the algos and corax did that and I don't see complaints.) than something that looks like a real life animal that I eat for dinner on a special occasion.

think about it from the players perspective. we put in a lot of time and effort to get into the ships, but visually It's almost never worth it. worst case scenario, you grind for months, saving up, and you get rickrolled with a navy mega.

Maxim 6. If violence wasn’t your last resort, you failed to resort to enough of it.

Don't expect any new info from the art team until Fanfest as that normally is the main event there showing off new shiny stuff.

Wait?! There's mini-skirts? Where??

And please don't change the Domi. It's perfect as it is, marshmallow man and all. And while you're at it - Change the Mega back to the good-looking version. The new model doesn't look mean enough by half.

I wonder what's happened with previous FF stuff like redesigned Imicus (not really good), Punisher, Navitas, Atron and Crucifier: http://imgur.com/a/KFuhX
