Altough i' d love to see the Moa swapped with a Platypus I can' t see how one can complain about this ship when theres a bloody turd with a drill (Talwar) and well a friggin giant space turd (Revenant)

One thing at a time. There's a whole list of ships we can complain about, but we gotta start somewhere.

Here is the complete list of REALLY ugly ships in EVE:
*Armageddon
*Dominix
*Hyperion
*Typhoon
*Aeon
*Wyvern
*Revenant
*Blackbird
*Moa
*Exequror
*Thorax
*Bellicose
*Cormorant
*Catalyst
*Algos
*Naglfar
*Obelisk
*Bantam
*Griffin
*Condor
*Imicus
*Atron
*Probe
*Burst
*Velator
*Reaper
*Leviathan
*Ragnarok
not including tech 2 or faction variants with basically the same model, many limited edition or special issue ships, anything unavailable in-game, or bad strategic cruiser setups.

GASP! Opinion stated as fact? I've never seen that before on any forum. Ever.

I find the Apoc's hand-banana design quite offensive. But I still fly it.

I agree, the Moa looks goofy as heck. The Caracal is somewhat better, though I find its lines a bit too strict.

Moa is a fat Griffin.

Griffin is a skinny Moa.

The Moa is different. It is special. It looks just fine as it is.

If there is anything that needs fixing, then it's that flying power drill.

Reasonable minds differ about the Rupture. Some say it's a power drill, some insist it's an outboard motor. The debate continues.

But many agree that the Moa is a dinosaur with a briefcase.

Some consider the Rupture to be a nailgun and I think it has a name that sounds like someone sneezed.

An interesting point about the moa tho... Lol

Mouse, we are going to have to have a talk about your serious lack of perception.


Not everything has to look like the spaceship equivalent of a gold plated, flying, battery operated pleasure device.

wait, we're talking about the Thorax now?



Anyone who doesn't see the sex toy potential of Gallente hulls just isn't thinking kinky enough.

Here is the complete list of REALLY ugly ships in EVE:

*Armageddon - Nope it's fine.

*Dominix - You know. Space potato has actually grown on me. Navy Potato is awesome!

*Hyperion - Nope. It's fine.

*Typhoon - Flying garbage can. Needs help, but Doomphoon is amazing.

*Aeon - Also fine.

*Wyvern - Not quite as derpy as the Moa, but close.

*Revenant - Space poo. No really. It's a flying turd.

*Blackbird - This is a runner up for 'My bits don't make sense", but still not as bad as the Moa.

*Moa - This is the worst of the lot. Lunchbox dinosaur. Mutant dishwasher. Doesn't even work as advertised. Bad and ugly.

*Exequror - Nope it's fine.

*Thorax - Also a good ship.

*Bellicose - It has many arms to do all the things.

*Cormorant - Blaster Cormorants are amazing. Also looks cool.

*Catalyst - Is fine. Miners fear this ship. Needs to stay that way.

*Algos - Is amazing.

*Naglfar - Is vertical. Vertical ships are win.

*Obelisk - Big brother to Space Potato. Space Potato is amazing. Make fun of Space Potato, Obelisk comes and... hauls your stuff away.

*Bantam - Is derpy. But makes sense.

*Griffin - Is not bad. I like more than Moa.

*Condor - Condor is also good ship. Crow and Raptor also good.

*Imicus - Bananaphone.

*Atron - Is okay. Small amount of derp.

*Probe - Probe and Cheetah are good ships. Explorers start with these. Also make sense. Wingy bits.

*Burst - Has wingy bits, but looks like a burned moth. Also, wingy bits.

*Velator - Makes sense. Not very derpy.

*Reaper - Makes sense. Has wingy bits.

*Leviathan - What happens when too many Moa's are allowed to congregate in one place for too long.

*Ragnarok - Where Rifters go to die.

Oh CCP, why can't you see.

Why the Moa is so damned ugly.

Ishukone has a strange eye.

For it makes no sense,

for a Moa to fly.

With your weird chicken neck.

And your nacelles bent.

Instead I'll fly,

a Caracal with pride.

Well, it started badly, tailed off a little in the middle, and the less said about the end the better. But, apart from that, excellent.

The Moa.

..................

*passes SAN check*

*loses 1d10 SAN anyway*

Yep....obviously designed by Cthulhu.

Everything in EVE is a trap.

And if it isn't, it's your job to make it a trap...:)

Put a Moa in a microwave, partially melt it, and it's a Gallente ship.
