Osprey and every ship that uses its hull.

Change helios back to its original tristan hull please. The imicus hull looks like it came from the nose.

dominix, typhoon and tempest are the ugliest battleships.

Someone pointed out to me yesterday that typhoon looks like a fish from the deep. It has a big maw, two fangs on top, and two very small lights on top that look like eyes. What? Neat little easter egg, but I would rather have it look serious.

Dominix looks like a flying butt. Some people already pointed out the tempest.

ps. I dislike asymmetry. Its ok to have some asymmetric ships but theres way too many of them. Raven looks ok if not for its asymmetry etc.

Hands off the Dominix, it's one the most distinctive ships ingame (and beyond)!

I am at loss why not more Dominix-lovers are speaking up here, I suppose they are too busy pwning all over Eve to find time to post. Smile



Word. Don't understand where all the domi hate comes from. It's more beautiful and characteristic than any of the T3s tbh.

Frankly I think its butt ugly, but still pretty cool. It grew on me over time.

Of course, my favorite bike is a Speed Triple, and they have ever been "so ugly its cool" at best, so that is fairly characteristic for me.

Moa, Drake, and maybe Tempest, yeah, redo them.

....and leave the Phoon, I like that hollow hull of pew thank you.

If there's a gallente battleship that needs looking at it's the Hyperion.
The core model looks like a ragnarok titan with gallente painting. This ship does NOT look like a fast and eplosive blasterboat.
And the tempest and the phoon are fine imo – the phoon you can apply "so ugly it becomes beautiful" on.

I bet it's the Raven, it has needed a symetrical look for epicness for a while now.


Better not be, i love the raven, it is a piece of god like art and any changes made would be blasphemy.

It has to be the Raven.

If it's not then you have once again failed and need to remake the Raven.

there was a domi that a eve player made that sleeked it up but retained the entire shape still.

It was along this lines but the guy made a model and skinned it.

There are not many ships that I would like to see re-designed.

The few that make the list are:

  • Reaper
  • Inquisitor & T2 variants
  • Tormentor
  • Bellicose & T2 variants
  • Scorpion (bring back the old shape!)


I like (or really like) just about all the other models. The old scorpion model was much better than the new version - it's asymmetric shape made it look like an advanced EWAR platform, while the new shape is just too generic.

The raven model is great as it is, I really like the fact that it isn't symmetric. I also really like the tempest, typhoon and maelstrom hulls as they are, and the megathron is a thing of beauty. I guess I wouldn't mind the dominix or hyperion being tinkered with a little though.

I really hope that not too many ships are going to morph into unrecognisable shapes... bring back the old scorp!

Gallente shuttle. It's just too light in the loafers. Compare it to the Minmatar Advanced/Tie Interceptor, the Amarr shuttles A-Wing fighter, or the stark cold efficient lines of the Caldari shuttle.

The Gallente shuttle is something that is only piloted by people named Biff who drink cauliflower milkshakes while wearing pastel colored sweaters draped over their shoulders.

Total. Frelling. Travesty. IMO.



Don't you touch that gallente shuttle.

Amarr/Caldari shuttles both look like complete **** to be honest.

Gallente Shutte / Tie Interceptor are the only good shuttles.

Dominix is not the most ugly ship but it needs midification most. because it looks exactly the same as those rogue drones----something evoloved totally on themselves and uninterfered by the human. It doesn't make sense that they have the same look as human made spaceship.

I suggest that you redo the dominix and leave the rogue drones as they are----domi is ugly anyway.

BTW, the MOST ugly ship, in my opinion, is Typhoon the space dustbin.

You got it backwards.

Rogue drones salvage everything they can.. and so they salvaged dominixes and repurpused them for their use.

The world is a community of idiots doing a series of things until it explodes and we all die.
